Python API to the Bright/Glowmarkt/Hildebrand API for energy consumption. There is a python API and a command-line script.
For instructions on use with Home Assistant, see https://github.com/danmed/Glow2MQTT
pip3 install pyglowmarkt
You need an account from https://glowmarkt.com/
from glowmarkt import *
cli = BrightClient("[email protected]", "MyP4ssword!")
A virtual entity is e.g. your Glowmarkt device or SMETS2 smart meter. A virtual entity has multiple resource e.g.
- Electricity consumption
- Electricity cost
- Gas consumption
- Gas cost
ents = cli.get_virtual_entities()
for ent in ents:
print("Entity:", ent.name)
for res in ent.get_resources():
print(" %s:" % res.name)
Assuming we've got a resource from the discovery above...
get_readings returns a list. Each element of the list is a
[timestamp, value] pair which will be a KWH or Pence object.
Use value.value to fetch the floating point value, or str(value) to
represent as a string with the kWh/pence unit.
# Get time now, and 4 hours ago, this is the reading window
now = datetime.datetime.now()
t_from = now - datetime.timedelta(hours=4)
t_to = now
# Results will be summarised at one hour readings
period = "PT1H"
# Round times to start of period boundary
t_from = resource.round(t_from, period)
t_to = resource.round(t_to, period)
rdgs = resource.get_readings(t_from, t_to, period)
for r in rdgs:
print(" %s: %s" % (
r[0].astimezone().replace(tzinfo=None),
r[1]
))
Timezones are managed according to t_from and t_to. If you want to use GMT timezone, make sure t_from and t_to are set to use that timezone.
t = res.get_tariff()
print(" Tariff: rate=%.1f standing=%.1f" % (
t.current_rates.rate,
t.current_rates.standing_charge,
))
The API provides the means to get the current value of a resource (the last data point acquired) and the meter reading (the cumulative value, the number you would see if you go and look at the meter.
I can't get these to work, maybe not implemented, or maybe only work with Glowmarkt hardware (I'm testing with a SMETS2 meter).
Accesses the bright account and dumps out each resource's readings, and tariff information, human readable.
