f0m3 / ZeverSolar

Python reader from a Zever Solar web server

ZeverSolar

The ZeverSolar inverters have a (small) web server. Opening that page displays the current readings for that website. The Python application directly accesses the webserver, extracts the current readings and stores them in a SqlLite Db.

Please note that unlike, for example (solmoller's eversolar-monitor)[https://github.com/solmoller/eversolar-monitor] , this script interacts with the HTTP Web server and not the serial, Telnet or other connections ZeverSolar might operate on.

The plot application (plotZever.py) creates a simple plot of the generation data.

Environment: Python 3, Pip 7+ Prerequisite: docopt.py
