ImportError: bad magic number in 'HologramAuth': b'B\r\r\n' about hologram-python

[DomAmato]

We created packages for each of those python versions since it being packaged as bytecode prevented it from being compatible across versions of python: https://pypi.org/project/python-sdk-auth/#history

The versions correspond with the python minor number so 0.3.7 is 3.7, 0.3.8 is 3.8 and so on...

[DomAmato]

The SDK version 0.9.0 requires python 3.7 or greater. It might install but you will get this bad magic number error on versions of python lower than 3.7

I will close this and reopen if there is a compelling reason to support older versions of python

Thanks. I’ll try it again. Can you guys update the Docs? They are calling for different python versions.

2.7 https://hologram.io/docs/reference/cloud/hologram-cli/

3.7 https://hologram.io/docs/reference/cloud/python-sdk/

Has this really been fixed for ARM with python bytecode??? With hologram v0.9.0 or 0.9.1 I'm having the exact same issue across two ARM platforms: 1) python3.7 on a Raspberry Pi (Buster) and 2) python3.8 on a Jetson Nano (Ubuntu 18.04, Jetpack 4.6.1):

ImportError: bad magic number in 'HologramAuth': b'a\r\r\n'

This is a big problem as we need to deploy a suite of agriculture tools across the USA in ~3 weeks and I'd showcased the Hologram R410M just a few days ago as our proposed solution.

Thank you! I saw this in another post but due to the name being different from the hologram library I didn't understand this was intended to be a second install that fixes the bytecode issue on the hologram-python install. Works on Raspberry Pi, still need to do some digging on the Nano to get it working but I believe my problem is solved.
