python module install manully

[ldompeling]

I have a module insteon.py what I need to install manually because it is not in 
the python index packages.
I copied the module in /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages and 
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages.

When I try to import the module insteon.py I get this error:
Does someone knows what the problem can be.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "main.py", line 15, in 
from insteon import Insteon

GoPiGo distence sensor

[ldompeling]

I have a small robot on wheels named the GoPiGo.
What I want is if the distence sensor read the same distence for let say 5 
seconds then the GoPiGo go's backward.

But I don't now how to program this in python.
The Api functions for the GoPiGo are here: 
http://www.dexterindustries.com/GoPiGo/programming/python-programming-for-the-raspberry-pi-gopigo/

Can someone help me with this.

I think that pocketsphinx installed successfully because I install it on my 
raspberry pi with sudo-apt-get
How can I create a module named pocketsphinx.py to try out the library.

I had python version 2.6 3.0 3.4 installed and removed.
I reinstall pocketsphinx python and now I don't get any errors while import 
from pocketsphinx. So I tried to run some python examples and now I get this 
error. I don't have a clue whats coing on.

I work it out with importing pocketsphinx and sphinxbase but I have an other 
error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "", line 1, in 
ImportError: No module named Decoder

Is there a way to download the module Decoder somewhere?

I installed python 3.4 and set my python path to PYTONPATH:/usr/bin/python3.4

When I try to import pyaudio then I get this error:

I hate it to ask you again but I really want that this script going to work.
And I use the raspberry pi for it.

I also get a lot off alsa errors on my screen so I don't no if that result in 
this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

When I change input=True instead than I get a lot of errors:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "sound.py", line 19, in 
rate=RATE, input=True, frames_per_buffer=CHUNK)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pyaudio.py", line 747, in open
stream = Stream(self, *args, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pyaudio.py", line 442, in __init__
self._stream = pa.open(**arguments)
OSError: [Errno Invalid number of channels] -9998

I don't think we can solve those errors
Anyway thanks for helping me out so far.

my first script for the GoPiGo

[input/ldompeling]

I want that this script runs to times from the upper line to the buttom line.
I tried with for x in range(2): but that didn't work
The GoPiGo is a small robot on wheels.

The API codes are here:

Thanks or the reply.

I mean that i want this script running two times.
So the first line is mindist = 70 
And the last line is print x
And that two times
So that the robut continues moving two times in this script, from the upperline 
to the bottum line two times.

Then I am misinformed, because someone told me in this group to use while True: 
Is there another function that I can use for to restart this script?

Re: GoPiGo script

[input/ldompeling]

I tried to use def loop(): now for to restart the script.
but its only restart "fwd()" print ("forward 1x") and then stop.
It does not look further for the if function.
Is there another way to restart this script ?
I also tried with (while True:) but that does nothing.

Thanks

Re: GoPiGo script

He mike,

Thank you or making this script.
Only I get errors for sleep.
I also tried to change it to time.sleep() but that also gives errors.

File "test05.py", line 23
sleep(2)

raw_input and break

[input/ldompeling]

I have an continues loop with "while True:"
Now I want to use "raw_input" and when I press "s" on the keybord that it will 
"break" the continues loop.

I tried:
choices = raw_input
if choises == s:
break

But even when I not press "s" it "break"
I want that I not press "s" the script continues.

Any ideas ?

Thanks

 You need to quote the s:

I quote the s, but its still break even when I not press the s.

In this script it always break even when I not  press 's'
I want that this script go's to if mindist > us_dist(15):
And when I press 's' its stop.

Any ideas ?




while True:
enable_servo()
servo(90)
mindist = 80
choices = input("letter s to stop:")
if choices == 's':
print ("stop")
break
if mindist > us_dist(15):
bwd()

Oh no, this is not what I want. Now it is waiting for input when its go further 
with the script.
Because I have an while True: so I want that the script go's continue only when 
I press a key then it must stop the script.

Thanks for the reply. Is there no easy way to do so in python ?
I am using the raspberry pi with Wheezy and for the robot the GoPiGo which is 
connected on the raspberry pi.
The GoPiGo board has his own code like: fwd()="forward" bwd()="backward" 
right()="right" left="left" and so on.
I am just a dummie with python.

Thanks

Oke, lets try your code.Can you help me with that.
This is my code:

set_left_speed(105)
enable_servo()
fwd()
print("forward 1x")
time.sleep(4)

mindist = 80

if mindist > us_dist(15):

stop()
right()
time.sleep(1)

Thanks for the reply

Yes, I would like seconds since start of program.
Can I not doing something like time()=0 only this gives an error.

Thanks

import module pyttsx in windows IDLE failed

[input/ldompeling]

When I try to run this module in Windows IDLE I get this message:
How can I solve this problem.

Thanks

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\raspberrypi\recipe-578839-1.py", line 1, in 
import pyttsx
ImportError: No module named 'pyttsx'

This is what I found on the internet:
---
import pyttsx
engine = pyttsx.init()
engine.setProperty('rate', 70)

voices = engine.getProperty('voices')
for voice in voices:
print ("Using voice:"), repr(voice)
engine.setProperty('voice', voice.id)
engine.say("Hi there, how's you ?")
engine.say("A B C D E F G H I J K L M")
engine.say("N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z")
engine.say("0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9")
engine.say("Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday")
engine.say("Violet Indigo Blue Green Yellow Orange Red")
engine.say("Apple Banana Cherry Date Guava")
engine.runAndWait()

No, I did not.
Where can I find pyttsx to install ?

Thanks
