Installing PyBluez via pip and troubles with import

Question

I'm have to do something using a Pybluez, I had errors on my code, so I told myself to start with "code example" what is in Pybluez, but I have errors in example too.

This is the example:

#!/usr/bin/env python3
import bluetooth

server_sock = bluetooth.BluetoothSocket(bluetooth.RFCOMM)
server_sock.bind(("", bluetooth.PORT_ANY))
server_sock.listen(1)

port = server_sock.getsockname()[1]

uuid = "94f39d29-7d6d-437d-973b-fba39e49d4ee"

bluetooth.advertise_service(server_sock, "SampleServer", service_id=uuid,
                            service_classes=[uuid, bluetooth.SERIAL_PORT_CLASS],
                            profiles=[bluetooth.SERIAL_PORT_PROFILE],
                            # protocols=[bluetooth.OBEX_UUID]
                            )

print("Waiting for connection on RFCOMM channel", port)

client_sock, client_info = server_sock.accept()
print("Accepted connection from", client_info)

try:
    while True:
        data = client_sock.recv(1024)
        if not data:
            break
        print("Received", data)
except OSError:
    pass

print("Disconnected.")

client_sock.close()
server_sock.close()
print("All done.")

So I tryed to reinstall Pybluez via pip, I uninstalled it and runned command

pip install git+https://github.com/pybluez/pybluez#egg=Pybluez

I've got error too...

I'm so confused because it's import error, in most cases you have to just reinstall module...

Answer 1

It was problem with Pybluez Library, when I changed every "bluetooth" to a "socket", it work as it have to work.
