cant run electrasmart-auth after pip install.

Hi @xposionn , were you able to resolve this issue? If not, could you share your log and error messages? Usually these issues stem from general setup issues such as python path configuration.

Hi Yonatan, this problem happens to me too. The error is "name 'electrasmart' is not defined". Do you know how I can solve it?

[yonatanp]

Could you share the command and the full output? (Masking credentials of course)

in () ----> 1 electrasmart-auth NameError: name 'electrasmart' is not defined The command was electrasmart-auth

Something here is very wrong. It is as if you are trying to run the library name as a python script. Could you provide the full command that you used? A screenshot might help clarify the context.

I added a photo. Im dont have any background in software so maybe I made a mistake. I ran the code on google colab.

No worries! Your screenshot was very helpful, now I understand the full context. What happens is that "electrasmart-auth" is a program to run from command line, not normally from within colab's python.

Here's what I suggest you try: First, add an exclamation point before the "electrasmart-auth" command. This tells colab to run this as a normal command, not in python. Second, the program takes your 10-digit phone number as parameter.

So instead of

[2] electrasmart-auth

try running e.g.

[2] !electrasmart-auth 0546667788

assuming that 054 6667788 is your phone number, already registered to electrsmart in their mobile app.
