Dear Mats,
Thanks a lot for your quick responses, again the below line seems to
be throwing the same error, is that should I again decode the line
where am facing the issue to str? or could you please let me if there
is any alternative solution for the same or workaround in python 3.6?
Code Snippet:
def parse_device_info(self, info_string):
"""Parse a string corresponding to a device."""
device = {}
block_list = ["[\x1b[0;", "removed"]
string_valid = not any(keyword in info_string for keyword in
block_list) ---------------------------> Again this line seems to be
the same issue
if string_valid:
try:
device_position = info_string.index("Device")
except ValueError:
pass
else:
if device_position > -1:
attribute_list = info_string[device_position:].split(" ", 2)
device = {
"mac_address": attribute_list[1],
"name": attribute_list[2]
}
return device
def get_paired_devices(self):
"""Return a list of tuples of paired devices."""
try:
out = self.get_output("paired-devices")
except BluetoothctlError as e:
print(e)
return None
else:
paired_devices = []
for line in out:
device = self.parse_device_info(line)
if device:
paired_devices.append(device)
return paired_devices
if __name__ == "__main__":
print("Init bluetooth...")
bl = Bluetoothctl()
print("Ready!")
bl.start_scan()
print("Scanning for 10 seconds...")
for i in range(0, 10):
print(i)
time.sleep(1)
bl.pair("64:A2:F9:06:63:79")
print("Pairing for 10 seconds...")
for i in range(0, 10):
print(i)
time.sleep(1)
# Seems to be an issue ----------
bl.get_paired_devices()
print("Getting Paired devices for 10 seconds...")
for i in range(0, 10):
print(i)
time.sleep(1)
