Configuration and Setup

[add30417]

Dear Giejay,

Thanks for maintaining this project. Honestly I have the issue now to setup at my raspberry. I recognized you are using docker, but besides of the 10 Steps out of the Readme file, I can't go ahead.

Maybe, can you please add more step how someone, like me, setup this from scratch ?

Thanks in advanced
Daniel

The readme is a bit outdated. You can use this script to set it up: https://github.com/giejay/nukiPyBridge/blob/master/install-bluetooth-deps.sh

At what step are you stuck?

[add30417]

Thanks for your answer.

First of all, I used a RP 3 B+. I downloaded the latest version from Raspbian and wrote a new sd card.

I found out the MAC address of my nuki.

I followed the 10 steps from the Readme file.

But now what is the next step, I couldn't found the NaCl utility on my sd card.
And even what should I do with the files from the git Repository? Can I use a docker? Or should I used without docker?

Honestly, I guess isn't rocket sicence any more, but just the next steps and the best way would be very helpful.

But I'm thanksful to you, you are maintining this project.

Did you try to install it using the file I mentioned? After that, you should have a running supervised service on port 5000. You can browse to that port and checkout the methods to use in server.py.

Just doing at the moment.

First run, with the error:
./install-bluetooth-deps.sh: line 20: ./install-bluez.sh: No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat 'nuki-supervised.conf': No such file or directory

[giejay]

Did you clone the entire repo or just copied that file?

[add30417]

I see, I guessed it is a "web" installer. I'm doing again. --- I will do the testing in the next days.

[add30417]

Now, I installed everything.

Following modifciation I did:
connect-example.py: changing macaddress of nuki
run.sh: changed with raspberry pi ip address
nuki.conf: changed with raspberry pi ip address

I used the pi user.

When I'm excuting the server.py, following message I will got back:

[giejay]

There is something wrong with your bluetooth.service file. Can you post the content?

[add30417]

cat /lib/systemd/system/bluetooth.service

[Unit] Description=Bluetooth service Documentation=man:bluetoothd(8) ConditionPathIsDirectory=/sys/class/bluetooth

[giejay]

Please put a line break between [Unit] and Description

Seems like step ahead:

During the excution of "./connect-example.py" following output appears:

[giejay]

Did you start the pairing process on your Nuki by holding it for 5 seconds?

[add30417]

Yes, I did.

Update:
Even the config file (/home/pi/nuki/nuki.cfg) never created during the execution. I created (with touch command) a empty file, but no success.

[giejay]

Can you try it by using the connect endpoint? See server.py for the details

[add30417]

Bascially the server.py isn't helpful me. Is it? I can't see any helpful information.
