Plugin won't load

Thanks for creating this plugin! Looking forward to getting my devices into Indigo. After installing the plugin, I get the following error in the logs:

Tuya Error Error in plugin execution InitializeMain:

Stopping plugin "Tuya 2022.2.0" (pid 68005)

The plugin shows a "red" status. I tried downgrading to prior releases, but no change. Do I need to install something else first? I have the bulbs already running in the Tuya app on my iPhone and in Homebridge. Appreciate any guidance. Thanks again!

You need to install the cryptography module.

Pip3 install cryptography

Thanks siclark. I checked, and it appears that cryptography is already installed.

Looks like you are running an older version (37.0.2), the latest is 39.0.2 so try

Code: Select all

pip3 install --upgrade cryptography

Thanks for the suggestion. Upgraded cryptography, restarted, still the same issue:

I’m sure the plug-in is python 3 but maybe try above with pip and not pip3?

Tried that, no change:

mediaserver@Pine-Island ~ % pip install --upgrade cryptography
Requirement already satisfied: cryptography in /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.10/lib/python3.10/site-packages (39.0.2)

Try this:

pip3 install Crypto

Then navigate to:

Macintosh HD/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.11/lib/python3.11/site-packages

and rename folder 'crypto' to 'Crypto'

** Note that if the Python version has changed you'll need to replace the 3.11s in the above path with the new version number. **

If you get error messages saying Crypto is missing when you start the plugin (sometimes happens with M1 Macs) just copy the version I've included in the Resources folder of the Tapo plugin to the above folder.

This sounds more complicated than it is, but unfortunately it's necessary because the Crypto library has to be installed manually. Several other plugin developers have encountered the same issue, and there seems to be no other way around it.

I missed the fact that this might be required for Tuya. I'd already had to do this for Tapo, so didn't notice.

Thanks! I followed your instructions and now get:

Is this where I need to install your Tapo plugin, then copy the Resources folder?

Actually, if you look in the Resources folder of the Tuya plugin you'll find the folder you need to copy over.

So I copy the Cypher folder from within the Tuya plugin Resource folder into the Crypto folder within site-packages? Sorry for being a bit of a neophyte.....

Not quite. REPLACE the Crypto folder in site packages with the one in my plugin.

That's it! Thanks!!

Great! I've posted a sticky for others to follow..

Hi,

I've been struggling to get the Taco plugin to load.

I have used pip3 to install Crypto to no avail.

I''m using a M1 Mac and after the install I look here ‭Macintosh HD/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.10/lib/python3.10/site-packages to find the Crypto folder but none exists.

I need to install the folder said to be available in the plug-in but can't locate it. Can someone provide me with more detail on where to find the Crypto folder in the plug-in?

Thanks
