Startup error on v2.0.4 (in the plugin store)

[jay (support)]

FYI, I just installed 2.0.4 from the plugin store and get this when the plugin starts up:

Code: Select all

Hmmm. Download the one on Git, it's been updated and has some experimental stuff in there but the stuff that was already in place should be fine. I'm, quite literally, writing a massive update for DE right now.

[Colorado4Wheeler]

Ahh, it's your example device - it cannot read the info.plist on Example Device - Speed Control.indigoPlugin. Still a bit of a bug (and one that I'm working on in this next release, dealing with oddities in the XML and plist files) but you should be 100% operational regardless of that error because it will move on to the next plugin.

There are, so far, like 3-4 plugins that bomb out there - I've blocked the others already.

Are you using Python's built in plistlib library? I've never had it choke on a valid plist before.

Not in the release that is published because it was sort of on-the-fly, but the new one does. DE was my first 'big' plugin and so there has been much learned since then .

I'd be lying if I didn't admit that it's kind of cool that one of the devs has use for one of my plugins .

We both use quite a few plugins by you guys (I think I use about 15 or so on my production system). At some point, I hope to spend some time with HomeKit Bridge - but time is not something I have a lot of recently.

Keep cranking them out!

I'm getting a similar error as well:

Just 1 device trying to convert ºC to ºF

I have tried a device and a variable, and trashing the plugin prefs.
