sdetweil

@Vauxdvihl did you see this in the module doc?

Requirements
A working python 3 distribution with pip is required before the installation.

did you do

npm install

per the modile instructions?

sdetweil

@sdetweil I don’t know how I checked solution and don’t know how to uncheck it

Vauxdvihl

@sdetweil
Yes i did
But i did not find anything ni the docs with regards to python

I installed it again

warni@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-MyBMW $ npm install

> MMM-MyBMW@1.0.0 preinstall
> echo 'Installing Python Dependencies...' && pip install -r requirements.txt --no-warn-script-location

Installing Python Dependencies...
error: externally-managed-environment

× This environment is externally managed
╰─> To install Python packages system-wide, try apt install
    python3-xyz, where xyz is the package you are trying to
    install.
    
    If you wish to install a non-Debian-packaged Python package,
    create a virtual environment using python3 -m venv path/to/venv.

    sure you have python3-full installed.

I think the installation did not work

sdetweil

@Vauxdvihl yes, you do mot have python setup like the author assumes

from the doc

and he doesn’t say but requires that you be running under some python virtual environment

Vauxdvihl

...@raspberrypi:~ $ python --version
Python 3.11.2

Python is available
But the installation errors (npm install) remains the same

sdetweil

@Vauxdvihl yes, the messages say about apt install or venv

I think the author needs to fix this. please open an issue on the module github page to engage the author.
