Home Assistant plugin on CORE - Python version 3.8 is deprecated

[tprelog]

Support for Python version 3.8 is deprecated and will be removed in Home Assistant 2022.1

I expect to have the plugin updated before Python 3.8 is removed

If you want to upgrade python now, you can do so manually using the following commands

Code:

iocage console $JAIL_NAME
# press 0 to exit menu
pkg install -y python39 py39-sqlite3
sysrc homeassistant_python=/usr/local/bin/python3.9
service homeassistant reinstall homeassistant

Plugin Version 7 - 2021.11.2

I pushed a small update that will switch to Python 3.9 for all clean installs

Running a Plugin UPDATE should ensure all the requirements are met for Python 3.9 but your existing services (virtualenv) will not automagically update.

After you update to version 7

• Your installed services will continue to run a virtualenv with python 3.8
• Switch a virtualenv to python 3.9 by reinstalling the service

Reinstall the Home Assistant service (virtualenv)

• Python 3.8 has been deprecated
• Support will be dropped in Home Assistant 2022.1

Code:

iocage console $JAIL_NAME
# press 0 to exit menu
sysrc homeassistant_python=/usr/local/bin/python3.9
service homeassistant reinstall homeassistant

Reinstall the AppDaemon or Configurator service (virtualenv)

• This is optional for these services
• Reinstall using console menu

For appdaemon and configurator services, use number 8 to remove the virtualenv

When the service is removed, number 8 will change back to install
