Hardware version problem

Hi Leon, thanks for providing this tutorial, really useful.

I've hit this error when running the js, which I think is related to the version of wiring-pi? I get the same error when I run gpio -v.

Unable to determine hardware version. I see: Hardware   : BCM2835
,
 - expecting BCM2708 or BCM2709. Please report this to projects@drogon.net

Is there a fix for this that you know of?
I also noticed someone else reported the same error earlier last year.

Edit: Looks like the issue is with the wiringpi version that's used in the node repo: WiringPi/WiringPi-Node#88

Hi,

Hm, yes, this seems as a problem of the underlying library on which my examples rely. What kind of Raspberry Pi are you using?

Best regards,
Leon

Hi @deanius,

It is a bug caused by the underling library wiring-pi which unfortunately is no longer maintained. Sorry for the bad news. You can have a look at my other examples at: https://github.com/leon-anavi/iot-javascript-rpi

Best regards, Leon
