Enviro+ mqtt-all.py

Support
#1

Hello,

I’ve successfully installed everything on a RPi Zero W. Run python combined.py and all displays fine.

When I try to run mqtt-all.py I get an error:

File “mqtt-all.py”, line 184
“”"
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Could someone give some advice please?

Regards
Ian

mqtt-all.py uses Python f-strings, which IIRC were introduced in Python 3.6. Are you using Python 2 to run your scripts?

Thanks,

I just installed everything so I assumed it would be the latest version, but on checking I have both 2.7.16 and 3.73 installed

Is possible to just delete Python 2 or force it to use Python 3?

How are you running mqtt-all.py? The comment at the top of that file says, in part:

Example run: python3 mqtt-all.py --broker 192.168.1.164 --topic enviro

If you made it executable, and are therefore running it as ./mqtt-all.py, then adding the following line at the top of the file should do it:

#!/usr/bin/env python3

Sorry I’m quite new to Python and I just used

python mqtt-all.py

in the examples folder.

I just run the example script you mentioned and got a Connection Refused error:

python3 mqtt-all.py --broker 192.168.0.25 --topic enviro
mqtt-all.py - Reads Enviro plus data and sends over mqtt.

broker: 192.168.0.25

Press Ctrl+C to exit!

Done it!!

mosquitto wasn’t installed!

Now I’ll do as you suggested, make it executable and run on boot

Thanks

Good evening, I have set up an MQTT Broker on my openHAB system, but unfortunately I do not receive my data from Enviro without Plus sent to the broker.
The mqtt-all.py script always gives me the same error [Errno 121] Remote I/O error.
I have installed Mosquitto only on my Raspi Zero with the Enviro, not on the Broker. I also start the script via python3.
Is it because I did not connect the PMS5003 sensor? How do I have to adjust the script to use it with the Enviro without Plus?
Unfortunately I am still quite new to the whole topic.
