Pimatic debug script

---

Hey!
I was thinking about making a simple bash script for troubleshooting purpose.

What things would we want to know like wiringpi version? Gcc version? Etcetc i would like some input on this to make a code.

Currently i have this;

It checks a couple of versions and locations, also if the service file is in place. Then it checks for a valid config.json, then it extracts which plugins are used from the valid config.
Also made it forum friendly so copy and paste and it is posted as code.
Any suggestions?

Hi,
nice idea! Perhaps for the homeduino users

• homeduino version
• receiverPin
• transmitterPin

are form interest. And maybe also the

• kernel version

might be a cause for problems.

@Fabian Indeed. Added ill also extract some other info from homeduino like devicepath etc.

Great idea, however I would suggest to do this as a plugin/part of pimatic-web-frontend so that one can copy the info without touching the shell.

@thex thanks but it is meant for troubleshooting. Which would probably mean pimatic isnt running, so having it hooked into a part that requires pimatic to run is not an option.

good point!

very nice!! seems to be very handy indeed!
what about the pimatic version number. there have been users out there with still using v0.8

another thing that could be an option and maybe a question / parameter for your script is to ask whether to tail the last maybe 50 lines of code from the daemon logfile

@leader21 thanks, added.

JQ is installed. Resuming...
Copy the output from here to the forum!

Do you want to add pimatic-daemon reports (Y/N)?y

Number of lines are defined by a variable. Currently set to -5, but could be -50(50 lines)

Also added a jq check that installs if it isnt on your system.

Gonna have to figure out how to pretty print 50 lines hehe. Currently puts it on 1 line.
