Installing

You're best using the "One-line" install method if you want all of the UART serial configuration for the PMS5003 particulate matter sensor to run automatically.

One-line (Installs from GitHub)

curl -sSL https://get.pimoroni.com/enviroplus | bash

Note report issues with one-line installer here: https://github.com/pimoroni/get

Or... Install and configure dependencies from GitHub:

  • git clone https://github.com/pimoroni/enviroplus-python
  • cd enviroplus-python
  • sudo ./install.sh

Note Raspbian Lite users may first need to install git: sudo apt install git

Or... Install from PyPi and configure manually:

  • Run sudo pip install enviroplus

Note this wont perform any of the required configuration changes on your Pi, you may additionally need to:

  • Enable i2c: raspi-config nonint do_i2c 0
  • Enable SPI: raspi-config nonint do_spi 0

And if you're using a PMS5003 sensor you will need to:

  • Enable serial: raspi-config nonint set_config_var enable_uart 1 /boot/config.txt
  • Disable serial terminal: sudo raspi-config nonint do_serial 1
  • Add dtoverlay=pi3-miniuart-bt to your /boot/config.txt

And install additional dependencies:

sudo apt install python-numpy python-smbus python-pil python-setuptools
