I am using the gpiozero and pigpio libraries to create a remote gpio control application in python. The pigpio documentation advertises this as a feature, so I know it's possible. Here is the problem with this example code:
import gpiozero as zero
import pigpio as io
testrun = io.pi("greenhousedatalogger")
led = zero.LED(26)
led.blink()
Yes, I have made sure the pigpio daemon is started on the pi. here are the error codes. I'm not sure if I need to provide them all, but I dont know what is necessarily critical to solve this problem.:
Did you start the pigpio daemon? E.g. sudo pigpiod
Did you specify the correct Pi host/port in the environment
variables PIGPIO_ADDR/PIGPIO_PORT?
E.g. export PIGPIO_ADDR=soft, export PIGPIO_PORT=8888
Did you specify the correct Pi host/port in the
pigpio.pi() function? E.g. pigpio.pi('soft', 8888)

I've read that this has to do with some environment variables somewhere, but I've found no good sources for how to change them and get it to work. How do I change the right system variables and get my raspberry pi's hostname to be usable to other devices on a network?
