A more obvious name might have been Octolux; therefore I didn't choose it.
LUXpower / Octopus control
You require:
- a LUX Power inverter,
- an Octopus Energy account (and API key), and
- an installation of InfluxDB and an API key.
Time is always UTC, but the LUX inverter uses local time; use the setting Lux--TimeZone.
Basic idea:
- get data,
- use the data -- and your experience -- to make a plan for what to do in every half hour (or whatever) period,
- check that the interter's settings implement the plan.
A service is a class that has an associated configuration section, it typically gets data and writes it to InfluxDB; and
A a job is a class with a method called RunAsync that is run on a cron schedule and uses some services.
InfluxDB and dotnet.
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "github.email@address"
# save as /home/rwb/.ssh/id_github
# Fuck knows what this bloody shit is
eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"
ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_github
cat ~/.ssh/id_github.pub
# Paste it at https://github.com/settings/keys
git clone https://github.com/rwb196884/Luxopus.git
If /etc/luxopus.config exists then it will be used
however appsettings.json is searched for in the working directory, strangely.
To run the command line version in linux:
$ runConsole.sh
