PowerView plugin update

Three weeks ago I made changes to the PowerView plugin, one to convert it to Python3 and one to support the latest HD PowerView Gateway V3. I put a request on the PowerView Plugin's GitHub page for merging my changes into a new release, but as yet there has been no response.

But what I would really like is for some other people to test my changes, especially those people with V2 Hubs who are using the current released plugin. My changes may not be a big benefit to you, but it would be great for you to try it to make sure there are no problems. Since I only have a V3, I cannot test the V2 code completely.

Just to be clear, the current plugin is still using Python2, so it will stop working with the next release of Indigo. My changes will fix that problem for all V2 users.

To try the new version, go to https://github.com/sdf-cnicorp/indigo-p ... /tree/Gen3 and click the green "Code" button, select "Download ZIP", expand the zip, and double click the plugin.

Please post a reply to this message with your findings, good or bad.

I am using a Gen 2 hub. I am experiencing errors:

Sorry about that. Stupid error on my part. I just fixed it.

Next time, please check the Debug option in the PowerView plugin Configuration dialog before you try it. You will have to re-download the plugin to get the fix. I hope you try again.
