Outdated docs about Peripheral config

[vovagorodok]

Should be removed following notes? :
at: Peripheral

You will need to have modified the dbus configuration file to open the permissions for 'ukBaz.bluezero'. This is covered in the System Setup section of the documentation

at: https://github.com/ukBaz/python-bluezero/blob/main/docs/install_bluez.rst#creating-a-bluezero-peripheral

A peripheral application will be registered on the DBus using the bus name of ukBaz.bluezero. An example dbus configuration file is provided and will need to be copied to the correct location:

[ukBaz]

Yes, well spotted. Looks like they got missed with 7e4bf74

[vovagorodok]

With new method examples should always runs with sudo unfortunately

[ukBaz]

No, you should not need to use sudo. As the ukBaz.bluezero name is not being claimed then it can be done without sudo

[vovagorodok]

In case without sudo I have AccessDenied:

When you run bluetoothctl do you have to run that with sudo also?

[vovagorodok]

No, bluetoothctl doesn't require sudo:

pi@home:~ $ bluetoothctl
[bluetooth]#

pi@home:~ $ bluetoothctl -v
bluetoothctl: 5.50

[ukBaz]

OK, let me run some tests

[ukBaz]

I've done a fresh install of Bluezero and checked that there is no ukBaz.bluezero is /etc/dbus-1/system.d/.

I think your issue is coming from else were.

pi@home:~ $ uname -a
Linux home 5.10.63-v7+ #1496 SMP Wed Dec 1 15:58:11 GMT 2021 armv7l GNU/Linux

Its clear instalation rpi os without gui. What system do you have?
and just install:

pip3 install bluezero

[ukBaz]

I've tested it on two systems:

$ uname -a
Linux TestMachine1 5.10.60-v7+ #1449 SMP Wed Aug 25 15:00:01 BST 2021 armv7l GNU/Linux

And

$ uname -a
Linux TestMachine2 5.4.0-100-generic #113-Ubuntu SMP Thu Feb 3 18:43:29 UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Is the OS you are referring to Raspberry Pi OS Lite? There are some known additional setup required with that. More details at: https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/a/116843/121848

[vovagorodok]

Yes RPiOS Lite on RPi Zero 2.
Works, but I don't know exact solution. What I'm done:

sudo apt install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth
sudo reboot
sudo apt remove pulseaudio-module-bluetooth

[ukBaz]

I think it is adding user pi to group bluetooth that is the key bit.

pi@raspberrypi4b:~ $ sudo usermod -G bluetooth -a pi  

[vovagorodok]

Yes. I forgot. This one was done by me to

[ukBaz]

OK. I think this sounds like a general RPi setup rather than an issue with Bluezero. Can I go ahead and close this issue?

[vovagorodok]

The goal of this issue is removing Outdated text in docs
