Building a Envisalink Homey app in python : how to add module?

Developers

Hi,

I am building an app to integrate with envisalink DSC Alarm systems. This could be useful for the Homey community I believe.

In local python, I was able to leverage the pyenvisalink library and run a native python script controlling the alarm panel and several sensors.

I’m now following the tutorials and python SDK documentation to develop drivers for the envisalink DSC alarm. I was able to create 3 drivers: alarm panel, contact sensor, motion sensor. However Homey keeps reporting that the pyenvisalink module is not available. I added it in requirements.txt and app.json according to the documentation.
Are there limitations?
homey app dependencies list does not show it and homey app dependencies install did not add it either.

Kr,
Jibet

Hi I don’t have the knowledge to help you. But I do hope you will solve it. I do very much like to have an app for this! Good luck

Hi I solved the previous problem and got a working result.

Now I would need a few hours of free time to wrap this up :wink:

Kind regards,
