      I have installed the module but get the following when I try to run your test ‘python3 AdafruitDHT.py 22 26’

      I know the DHT-22 works on GPIO pin 26
      ~/Adafruit_Python_DHT/examples $ sudo python3 AdafruitDHT.py 22 26
      Traceback (most recent call last):
      File “/home/pi/Adafruit_Python_DHT/examples/AdafruitDHT.py”, line 41, in
      humidity, temperature = Adafruit_DHT.read_retry(sensor, pin)

      raise RuntimeError(‘Unknown platform.’)
      RuntimeError: Unknown platform.

      Any thoughts?

        @lif It’s requiring tools no longer available, so dead module. Use something else.

        https://github.com/Tom-Hirschberger/MMM-Temperature is what I used when I had a module hooked up to it.

          Thanks, I’ve given it a try but get an error in the last stage of the installation

            @lif I’m not sure on that, @wishmaster270 (Tom) would know more.

                @lif Hi. Great you want to try one of my modules.

                Can you try installing a additional python system package with

                sudo apt install python3-rpi-lgpio
                

                I tried the scripts on my newly installed system with Bookworm and everything worked as expected.
                Maybe the missing package had been installed with something else I installed on my system.

                    That’s strange…Can you try to start with a new, fresh virtual python environment and install the needed libs again?

                    Remove old virtual environment:

                    rm -rf /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Temperature/scripts/py-venv
                    

                    Install the needed system libs:

                    sudo apt -y update && sudo apt -y install python3-venv libgpiod2
                    

                    Re-Create the virtual environment:

                    cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Temperature/scripts
                    ./venvWrapper.py --verbose --venv-name py-venv --create
                    

                    Re-Install the libs:

                    cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Temperature/scripts
                    ./venvWrapper.py --venv-name py-venv --install-libs adafruit-circuitpython-dht
                    

                    Run the test again:

                    cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Temperature/scripts
                    ./venvWrapper.py --venv-name py-venv --run ./dht22
                    

                    If it fails again. Can you please provide the output of

                    cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Temperature/scripts
                    source py-venv/bin/activate
                    pip freeze
                    deactivate
                    

                    The output should look something like:

                        @sdetweil Hi sam. My wrapper script will use the python binary in the virtual environment folder. This way the environment will be activated automatically.

                              Hi,

                              I’ve gone through your procedure again and this time it works.

                              The only difference is that I run a python3 script to control screen blanking using a PIR before starting Magic Mirror, this time I didn’t start that script.

                              With the PIR script and MagicMirror running I get:

                              pi@mm:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Temperature/scripts $ ./venvWrapper.py --venv-name py-venv --run ./dht22

                              I can live with that.

                              Thanks for all your help
