A memo about how to install the grovepi module that stumbled when I tried to make an IoT system and operate the sensor and actuator from python with GrovePi + inserted in RaspberryPi Model 3B.

First conclusion

Solution

$git clone https://github.com/DexterInd/GrovePi
$cd GrovePi/Script
$sudo chmod +x install.sh
$sudo ./install.sh

Log of what I tried below

I got the following error with pip install grovepi

(Omitted)
  error: Command "g++(Omitted)" failed with exit status 1
  ----------------------------------------
  ERROR: Failed building wheel for scipy

I referred to here https://github.com/pydata/bottleneck/issues/281, but the same error

$pip install grovepi --no-use-pep517
(Omitted)
    RuntimeError: Running cythonize failed!
    Cythonizing sources
    ----------------------------------------
ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1: python setup.py egg_info Check the logs for full command output.
pip install --upgrade pip setuptools wheel
(Omitted)

$pip install grovepi
Similar error

Refer to here https://teratail.com/questions/239230, but the same error

$sudo apt install libopenblas-dev
$sudo pip install pybind11
$pip install grovepi
Similar error

So I came to the first conclusion and solved it

I get an error saying that the RPi module is missing, which is resolved below

$pip install rpi.gpio
