Intalling bean-sdk on raspberry pi - november 2020

[Mr-onno]

In order to install bean-sdk on a raspberry pi, a few adjustments are required to make it working in 2020. This is a tested and working recipe.

Tested on raspberry pi 4 and rasperry pi zero with 2020-08-20 raspios-buster-armhf (also tested with some older raspbian images)

sudo apt-get update && sudo-apt-get upgrade [this is probably not strictly neccessary]
sudo apt-get install bluetooth bluez libbluetooth-dev libudev-dev
curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.35.3/install.sh | bash

close and re-open terminal window

npm install 6.17.1
npm install -g --unsafe-perm [email protected] bean-sdk
sudo apt-get install libcap2-bin
sudo setcap cap_net_raw+eip $(eval readlink -f which node)

try if it works with:

bean scan
