Error Message: invalid syntax

[lukki34]

Hello,

after execute the script I get an error message:

File "uartLog.py", line 8

^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Do you know the reason for getting this error message?

HI lukki34,
just tried it again and the script is working properly.

The issue is most probably caused by downloading the "not RAW" contents of the python file. Most probably you downloaded it via right click and "save target under". In this case not the python file is downloaded but the html page that serves the view on the python file.
If you want to download the file correctly please pull the complete repository or download the file via the raw file view here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Nerdiyde/Sonoff_zigbee_3.0_USB_dongle_plus_bootloader_script/main/uartLog.py

Additional info how you can download the complete repository is also available here: https://nerdiy.de/en/github-wie-kopiere-ich-dateien-aus-einem-github-auf-meinen-computer/

Best regards

Encountered this issue as well but it was caused by the version incompatibility.
Running python on a raspberry pi will default to python2.7 which does not support the async method. Try running it like that: python3 <script.py>
