After browsing all discussion foruns and finding this one the closest to a short answer I will summarize a step-by-step on how I got it running on my Rapi5
from my home directory run the following commands:
mkdir scriptsPython
cd scriptsPython/
python -m venv --system-site-packages env
source env/bin/activate
pip install RaspberryPiVcgencmd
There are bugs in the web script and unsupported features so you have to debug it before you run it
link to RaspberryPiVcgencmd documentation: https://github.com/chewett/RaspberryPiV ... /README.md
I hope this will help others get it running faster.
