Description: gw2pvo
        ======
        
        gw2pvo is a command line tool to upload solar data from a GoodWe power
        inverter to the PVOutput.org website.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        You need to have Python 3 and pip installed. Then:
        
        .. code:: shell
        
           sudo pip3 install --upgrade gw2pvo
        
        Next determine the Station ID from the GoodWe site as follows. Open the
        `Sems Portal <https://www.semsportal.com>`__. The Plant Status will
        reveal the Station ID in the URL. Example:
        
        ::
        
           https://www.semsportal.com/powerstation/powerstatussnmin/9a6415bf-cdcc-46af-b393-2b442fa89a7f
        
        So the Station ID is ``9a6415bf-cdcc-46af-b393-2b442fa89a7f``.
        
        Furthermore, you need a (free) `PVOutput <PVOutput.org>`__ account.
        Register a device and enable the API. From PVOutput you need:
        
        1. The API Key
        2. The System Id of your device
        
        Netatmo
        ~~~~~~~
        
        In case you have some Netatmo weather station nearby, you can use it to
        fetch the local temperature. First you need to create an (free) account
        at `developers portal <https://dev.netatmo.com/>`__. Next create an app.
        This gives you a username, password, client_id, and a client_secret,
        which you need to supply to ``gw2pvo``.
        
        You have the option to either let ``gw2pvo`` find the nearest public
        weather station, or to select one yourself.
        
        Dark Sky
        ~~~~~~~~
        
        Optionally, for actual weather information you can get a (free) `Dark
        Sky API <https://darksky.net/dev>`__ account. Register and get 1,000
        free calls per day. Note that Dark Sky will `shut
        down <https://blog.darksky.net/dark-sky-has-a-new-home/>`__ it’s API in
        2021 and does not accept new signups anymore.
        
        Usage
        -----

             --csv CSV             Append readings to a Excel compatible CSV file, DATE
                                   in the name will be replaced by the current date
             --version             show program's version number and exit
        
        The list of allowed cities can be found in the `Astral
        documentation <https://astral.readthedocs.io/en/stable/index.html#cities>`__.
        
        Examples
        ~~~~~~~~
        
        .. code:: shell
        
           gw2pvo --gw-station-id GWID --gw-account ACCOUNT --gw-password PASSWORD --pvo-system-id PVOID --pvo-api-key KEY --log debug
        
        If you want to save readings in a daily CSV file:
        
        .. code:: shell
        
           gw2pvo --gw-station-id GWID --gw-account ACCOUNT --gw-password PASSWORD --pvo-system-id PVOID --pvo-api-key KEY --csv "Solar DATE.csv"
        
        Replace GWID, ACCOUNT, PVOID, PASSWORD, and KEY by the proper values.
        DATE is a template and will be automatically substituted by the current
        date.
        
        Config file
        ~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        It is more secure to define credentials in a config file instead of
        adding it to the command line. E.g. if you created ``gw2pvo.cfg`` as
        follows:
        
        .. code:: ini
        
           [Defaults]
           gw_station_id = ...
           gw_account = ...
           gw_password = ...
        
           pvo_api_key = ...
           pvo_system_id = ...
        
           darksky_api_key = ...
        
           city = ...
        
        Then this will also upload your inverter data to PVOutput:
        
        .. code:: shell
        
           gw2pvo --config gw2pvo.cfg --log debug
        
        You can add any argument setting to the config file as you like.
        
        Automatic uploads
        -----------------
        
        The power graph on PVOutput is not based on the power reading from
        GoodWe, but on the amount of energy produced this day. This has the
        advantage that it does not matter if you skip one or more readings.
        
        PVOutput gives you the option to choose to upload each 5, 10, or 15
        minutes. Make sure you upload at the same rate as configured at
        PVOutput.
        
        The inverter updates goodwe-power.com each 8 minutes. The API gives
        resolution for produced energy of only 0.1 kWh. So for a 5 minute
        interval we get a resolution of 1200 watt, which is pretty big. To get
        smooth PVOutput graphs, we apply a running average which depends on the
        configured PVOutput upload interval time.
        
        Systemd service
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        If you run gw2pvo on a Systemd based Linux, you could install the script
        as a service, like:
        
        .. code:: ini
        
           [Unit]
           Description=Read GoodWe inverter and upload data to PVOutput.org
        
           [Service]
           WorkingDirectory=/home/gw2pvo
           ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/gw2pvo --config /etc/gw2pvo.cfg --pvo-interval 5 --skip-offline
           Restart=always
           RestartSec=300
           User=gw2pvo
        
           [Install]
           WantedBy=multi-user.target
        
        Store the file as ``/etc/systemd/system/gw2pvo.service`` and run:
        
        .. code:: shell
        
           sudo useradd -m gw2pvo
           sudo systemctl enable gw2pvo
           sudo systemctl start gw2pvo
           sudo systemctl status gw2pvo
           sudo journalctl -u gw2pvo -f
        
        Docker
        ------
        
        You can use the
        `Dockerfile <https://github.com/markruys/gw2pvo/blob/master/Dockerfile>`__
        to run a Docker container as follows:
        
        .. code:: shell
        
           docker build --tag gw2pvo .
        
        Add all settings to config file named ``gw2pvo.cfg`` like:
        
        .. code:: ini
        
           [Defaults]
           gw_station_id = ...
           gw_account = ...
           gw_password = ...
        
           pvo_api_key = ...
           pvo_system_id = ...
        
           city = Amsterdam
           log = info
           pvo_interval = 5
           skip_offline = yes
        
        Do set ``city`` to a `valid
        value <https://astral.readthedocs.io/en/stable/index.html#cities>`__
        otherwise the container will use the UTC timezone. Then start the
        container like:
        
        .. code:: shell
        
           docker run --rm -v $(pwd)/gw2pvo.cfg:/gw2pvo.cfg gw2pvo
        
        Recover missed data
        -------------------
        
        You can copy a day of readings from GoodWe to PVOutput. Interval will be
        10 minutes as this is what the API provides. Syntax:
        
        .. code:: shell
        
           gw2pvo --config gw2pvo.cfg --date YYYY-MM-DD
        
        Beware that the date parameter must be not be older than 14 days from
        the current date. In donation mode, not more than 90 days.

        GoodWe API access is based on the Chinese Sems Swagger documentation:
