Error using preinstalled PIO?

[airdrummingfool]

Operating system

macOS with PIO installed via homebrew:

$ pio --version
PlatformIO, version 3.4.0

$ which pio
/usr/local/bin/pio

Description of problem

I just updated from a dev build of Deviot 2 (0d6cd78) to the current tip of the develop branch. I encountered some errors with the syntax language file (similar to #125) so I removed all Deviot settings, which seemed to force a reinstall.

When Sublime Text launched, I got the following message in the Deviot console:

[ Deviot 2.0.1 ] Setup
04:19:01 PlatformIO is installed in your system. You can enjoy Deviot now!

However, when I try to do anything, Deviot cannot seem to find PIO. This includes "Show Terminal":

[ Deviot ] PlatformIO Terminal

To get information about the PlatformIO command writes: 'pio -h'
or 'help' to know about the Deviot commands.

$ pio -h 
/usr/bin/python: No module named platformio

and "Upgrade PlatformIO":

[ Deviot 2.0.1 ] Starting...
04:22:29 Searching for PlatformIO Updates...

/usr/bin/python: No module named platformio

If I try to "use Development PIO version", installation seems to get stuck as soon as it tries to actually perform an (un)installation:

EDIT: I was able to downgrade to 0d6cd78, delete my Deviot settings, and immediately (well, after fixing a syntax error in a Deviot file) upload to my ESP.

I've just installed homebrew in a macOS (10.10.5) and also platformio.

In my case, at the beginning it wasn't recognizing platformio, but I've fixed that in 5bfd05b

After that fix, I was able run all options without problem, so I couldn't replicate the issue.

The only think I 've made different is the installation of the plugin, instead of GIT I've use the package control as is indicated in this page

Can you try installing that way?

What is you current macOS version?

The syntax problem isn't directly related with Deviot but with PlatformIO, I'm working to implement a fix, PlatformIO doesn't like very well to work with ino files one solution is to change the extesion to cpp, but I know this could be a little annoying, so I'm search an alternative solution.

I think my syntax problem was because the old version of Deviot provided an Arduino.tmLanguage file for syntax highlighting, but recently changed to providing the syntax highlight info via libraries/syntax.py. Once I figured out the issue it wasn't a big deal to update the syntax setting to Deviot.

My macOS version is 10.12.5. I deleted the Deviot plugin from my plugins folder and removed all Deviot settings.

Once I start Sublime Text, Deviot gets reinstalled automatically (from Package Control), since it is in my installed packages list. The "Package Control Messages" screen comes up, as well as the Deviot console which prints

[ Deviot 2.0.1 ] Setup
02:18:13 PlatformIO is installed in your system. You can enjoy Deviot now!

Once I open the PlatformIO terminal, I have the same issues (and compiling still doesn't do anything):

[ Deviot ] PlatformIO Terminal

To get information about the PlatformIO command writes: 'pio -h'
or 'help' to know about the Deviot commands.

$ pio -h 
/usr/bin/python: No module named platformio

$ platformio -h 
/usr/bin/python: No module named platformio

Ok I guess I've solved. I don't know why it was working in the machine I've tested (it shouldn't)

Please check if with the last commit (c3a2766) you keep having the issue

About the syntax problem, you're right, the old file should be removed, that will be my next commit if the main issue is solved

[airdrummingfool]

@gepd that fixed it for me, thanks!

Regarding the old syntax file - it was removed, which is what caused my issue. There appears to be no upgrade path between the old version and the new one - so any files I already had open and specified as Arduino syntax caused the error because the Arduino.tmLanguage file is gone in the new version. It's easy just to tell Sublime Text to use the Deviot syntax though, so it's not a big problem.

[gepd]

yes, that is part of the plan. The plugin already loads the new syntax each time you open a file, but there is no action when the files are already loaded.

Thanks for the reports!

[gepd]

Ok, I've fixed the syntax problem too.
