controller is not work on windows

[Yimi81]

The input library for obtaining devices is outdated, making it impossible to obtain device information correctly under Windows.

arena/diambra/arena/utils/controller.py

Line 5 in 505328f

from inputs import devices

Hello @Yimi81,

can you please share additional details about:

• The error you are receiving
• The steps to replicate it
• The environment you are using (OS, etc)

python==3.9.18 diambra-arena==2.2.6

1. Run controller. py and enter 4 to trigger the following error:
   

2. Annotate self. logger. basicConfig (logging_level) and run controller. py again
   

3. At first, I encountered a problem in llm-coloseum, which was stuck in the following interface and could not respond to input. Therefore, I determined that the inputs library did not correctly retrieve the input device in Windows
   

I'm stuck on this interface. I pressed anything and there was no response

@Yimi81 The logging problem should have been solved by this commit: 3d05266

Can you update diambra-arena package via pip install -U diambra-arena, make sure you get 2.2.7 version and try again?

I upgraded to diambra arena, but the problem remains the same. I am unable to configure the device
both stuck

@Yimi81 Thanks for the followup.

Two things:

1. Can you share the content of the python script you are executing? temp.py
2. This seems to be related with inputs library itself, which might be blocked by some security setup on your machine, as explained here: https://inputs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user/install.html#windows-permissions

temp.py is copy from controller.py(https://github.com/diambra/arena/blob/main/diambra/arena/utils/controller.py).
Thanks, i will try it

Let us know if you manage to solve the problem, so far it has always worked fine, and it is very probably is a security problem, as the connection is hanging.
