[Vauxdvihl]

Hi all,
i am trying to get “MMM-MYBMW” to work.
But i think, i forgot to install some additional modules
The error message looks like

[2024-06-14 15:46:46.534] [ERROR] bimmer_connected error: Traceback (most recent call last):
  File ".../MagicMirror/modules/MMM-MyBMW/getMyBMWData.py", line 6, in <module>
    from bimmer_connected.account import MyBMWAccount
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'bimmer_connected'

Can please somebody help me?

@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

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.
