Error during install on Raspberry Pi 3

[winnph]

I attempted to install on a Raspberry Pi 3 and after typing the "install -e" command, I received a red message that stated "Command python setup.py egg_info failed with error code 1 in /home/pi/morseapi" and a lengthy error log was generated.

Do you have a copy of the generated error message?

The problem appears to be old code in PyRobots's setup.py, which is trying to use execfile('...') (from Python2x), so I downloaded the pyrobots source and changed that one line to exec(open('...').read()), and I'm currently trying to install pyrobots manually. I'll let you know if that works, otherwise, I'll send you a copy of the entire error log.

Confirmed, I was able to fix this by changing that one line in pyRobots setup.py. Once that was corrected to python3x syntax, it installed fine.

Unfortunately morseapi has not been thoroughly tested with python3. When I last looked at it (>12 months ago) dependency libraries were not available, I think it was primarily pygatt, which has since fixed to work with python3. So its possible it should be possible now with minimal amount of tweaks.

@winnph, I took the liberty of creating a PR for pyrobots: severin-lemaignan/pyrobots#8
