bluetooth import

[bensonsearch]

Hi All,

im super new to python and my little raspberry pi (i normally use vb.net so not new to programming as a whole).

I have installed a usb bluetooth dongle and it all works fine from the command line as it should and it installed bluez as well.

in python i have

Code: Select all

import bluetooth

and also tried

Code: Select all

from bluetooth import *

both error saying
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/pi/test.py", line 1, in <module>
from bluetooth import *
ImportError: No module named bluetooth


please help

How did you install BlueZ? Like this:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install bluetooth

If so, and I know it's a real cliche by now, try turning your Pi off and on again, you never know

Hi,
Thank you so much for the reply.

It installed as part of the adaptor install, I know this as I tried

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install bluez

and it returned saying already installed

however i fixed the error since by

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install python-bluez

fixed the issue

thanx again so much
