Problem installing joulescope (command line) on RPI

LukeM · January 23, 2023, 12:11am

Hi all,
I’m trying to install Joulescope command line on a RPi (64bit) following the instructions that Matt provided previously (Run in Raspberry pi #100). The installation works fine until I get to the final part where the system tries to install pyjls. I get the following message:

collecting pyjls>=0.4.2 (from joulescope)

Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement pyjls>=0.4.2 (from Joulescope) (from versions: 0.2.5, 0.2.6, 0.3.0, 0.3.1, 0.3.2, 0.3.3, 0.3.4)
No matching distributionfound for pyjls>=0.4.2 (from joulescope)

Any help would be much appreciated.
Luke

The most recent pyjls release is 0.4.3.

I have not tried Raspberry Pi installation in a while. Raspberry Pi is somewhat “special”. pywheels does not support aarch64, which is what you should be using. It does show that pyjls is available for python 3.9.

You can try installing from source. First, ensure that you are running at least python 3.8. 3.9 and 3.10 are preferred.

python3 -VV

I think that you can try to install from source without using a wheel:

python3 -m pip install -U pyjls --no-binary :all:

Does this command work? If not, can you post the full output?

Hi Matt,

Thanks for the quick reply. I was running python 3.7 but given your advice upgraded it to python 3.10.2 and set it as the default python3 version to use. I confirmed this by running python3 -VV. I also ran sudo update and sudo upgrade. I then followed the instructions as per your previous message. However, this time the install failed at the command “python3 -m venv ~/venv/joulescope”. See full output below.

The failure while trying to create a virtual environment has nothing to do with Joulescope software. Here are some things to try:

Delete the ~/venv/joulescope directory first, and try again
See StackOverflow. Maybe:

   sudo apt update
   sudo apt upgrade
   sudo apt install python3-venv

However, you may need to use:

sudo apt install python3.10 python3.10-pip python3.10-venv

if 3.10 is not the default installation.

Post the results of the following commands:

    which python3
    which pip3
    python3 -VV
    pip3 freeze

Hi Matt,

Here is the output. Does this look correct?

No, that definitely does not look right. pip3 freeze should display a whole list of the installed packages.

How did you install python3? With sudo apt install python3.10? If so, sudo apt install python3.10 python3.10-pip python3.10-venv may fix things. If not, you can try running things from the python3.10 installation, like this:

python3 -m pip freeze
python3 -m pip install venv
python3 -m venv ~/venv/joulescope

OK, thanks Matt, I appreciate the help. I’ll work on it and see how I go.

LukeM · January 24, 2023, 9:29am

Hi Matt,

I’m making progress. I have updated to the latest default python (3.11.1) and have the venv and pip3 working. I tired installing Joulescope from source without using a wheel using the following command python3.11 -m pip install -U joulescope --no-binary :all: However, its just failing at the pyjoulescope driver.

I realise this is not a joulescope problem, but any thoughts you may have would be much appreciated.
Kind regards,
Luke

DEPRECATION: --no-binary currently disables reading from the cache of locally built wheels. In the future --no-binary will not influence the wheel cache. pip 23.1 will enforce this behaviour change. A possible replacement is to use the --no-cache-dir option. You can use the flag --use-feature=no-binary-enable-wheel-cache to test the upcoming behaviour. Discussion can be found at https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/11453

Based upon the error, I do not think that you are running a 64-bit OS. I just created a fresh install for the Raspberry Pi 4 (RP4), which worked. Here are the steps:

Created the SD image using a Windows 11 machine:

Inserted 128 GB SanDisk Extreme PRO SD crd
Downloaded and installed Raspberry Pi imager 1.7.3: Raspberry Pi OS – Raspberry Pi
a. Choose OS → Raspberry PI OS (other) → Raspberry Pi OS (64-bit) released 2022-09-22
b. Chose Storage → Selected SD card
c. Write & wait

With the Raspberry Pi 4:

Connect RP4 to mouse, keyboard, HDMI monitor, ethernet network
Insert SD card into RP4
Power on RP4 and performed first-time setup
a. Selected “Update software” & waited…
Open terminal
a. python3 -VV → 3.9.2, which is old but fine
b. sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
c. sudo apt install -y libudev-dev
d. wget https://github.com/jetperch/pyjoulescope/raw/main/99-joulescope.rules
e. sudo mv 99-joulescope.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/
f. sudo udevadm control --reload-rules
g. python3 -m venv ~/venv/joulescope
h. . ~/venv/joulescope/bin/activate
i. pip3 install joulescope
Wait - this step takes a long time as the RP4 64-bit must build all wheels.
j. python3 -m joulescope capture out.jls
k. CTRL-C to stop capture
l. ls -al out.jls

Does this work for you?

LukeM · January 25, 2023, 5:05am

Yes, that worked perfectly! Thanks.

Just one last question how do I install and run the downsample_logging.py program to this Rpi as I need to record some long term power consumption data for a device we are developing?

Thanks again,
Luke

mliberty · January 25, 2023, 1:45pm

Hi @LukeM - Great!

I think you need to just download downsample_logging.py to the RP4 and run it. Here is one way to do that with wget:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jetperch/pyjoulescope_examples/main/bin/downsample_logging.py

Then to run:

. ~/venv/joulescope/bin/activate
python3 downsample_logging.py

Press CTRL-C to end the capture. See the ~/Documents/joulescope/ directory for the output files.

See the downsample_logging.py file for documentation.

For command-line options, use:

python3 downsample_logging.py --help

LukeM · January 26, 2023, 10:35pm

Hi Matt,
Thanks for that. Everything now works perfectly. Thanks for taking the time to help us with this as I know it was a setup issue on my end and not a joulescope problem. Much appreciated.

BTW the Joulescope is an awesome tool for us. We normally use it in a windows environment as a quality control tool to check that our circuit boards are functioning correctly and now are using it for with dedicated RPis for long duration battery testing of our iot devices.

Kind regards,
Luke

Excellent! The RP4 should work great for this.

If you decide to scale to multiple stations, you can also consider running Ubuntu on a small-form-factor PC, such as Intel NUCs. I like these over RP4 since they come with solid mechanicals and higher performance. The RP4, even with purchased enclosures, is not as nice. The RP4 also does not support the UI, while x64 machines do.

I hope everything goes smoothly, but if you run into any issues, please post!
