To run on a Raspberry PI you need a properly configured device. See e.g. http://ion.bitplan.com/index.php/Ion2017-07-18#Raspberry_PI
Hardware
See e.g.
Raspberry Setup
You'll find setup guides all over the internet here are just two links:

Run script
If you have an official touchscreen you can control the brightness of the screen with the darkmode button of can4eve.
You might want to make sure that you use the run script to start the app. The important lines are:
sudo chmod 0664 /sys/class/backlight/rpi_backlight/brightness
sudo chown root.pi /sys/class/backlight/rpi_backlight/brightness
Autostart
Example Can4Eve.desktop file to be placed in .config/autostart of your user. Please adapt the exec line to where you installed can4eve

Pairing
Pair the device using the Graphical User Interface Bluetooth button in the top right. You will not be able to connect the message is "Connection failed - No usabel services on this device". We'll work around this with some python helper software Check result with commmand line:
bluetoothctl
