Arch linux compilation (Python 3.10) + Tandem Tslim

[panbroggi]

Hi,

I am writing here to report that I successfully compiled the uploader on my Arch Linux PC. Since I had some problems with docker, I tried to follow the README and compile the code directly. I followed the README and yarn stopped.

There is an incompatibility of Python 3.10. In particular, the file $HOME/.nvm/versions/node/v12.13.0/lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/node-gyp/gyp/pylib/gyp/common.py at line 499 is to be changed from class OrderedSet(collections.MutableSet): to class OrderedSet(collections.abc.MutableSet):.

After this modification the compilation terminates. Launching yarn dev the app opens. Unfortunately I was unable to upload my pump data, since after the connection the app throws the error

Upload Failed: Hmm, we couldn't detect your device Details: Driver not available. | UTC Time: 2022-08-07T23:06:06+02:00 | Code: E_SERIAL_CONNECTION | Version: 2.46.0

Do you know if there is a way to fix this issue?
Thank you

Today I looked at the recent changelog and it really looks like commit #1503 broke compilation from source. Compiling version 2.45.1 results in a successful detection of the device and upload of the data.
Please let the only native option for Linux be alive!

To quote @gniezen from #623 (comment)

Here is the ticket: https://tidepool.atlassian.net/browse/UPLOAD-835

Moving forward, Tandem will be working directly with third parties that distribute software that connects with Tandem devices.

Is there any chance that because of this there will be an official Linux support? Otherwise we will be stuck with an outdated uploader and outdated drivers.
