eCactus ECOS Python Client

This Python client provides both synchronous and asynchronous interfaces to interact with the eCactus ECOS platform from WEIHENG Group for energy management. However, this project is in its early stages, is not fully tested, and is not safe for production use. Use it at your own risk.

Features

• Synchronous Access: Use the Ecos class for straightforward, blocking operations.
• Asynchronous Access: Use the AsyncEcos class for non-blocking, concurrent operations.

Installation

python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install ecactus-ecos-py

Usage

Synchronous Client

from ecactus import Ecos

# Initialize the client
session = Ecos(datacenter='EU')
session.login('email@domain.com', 'mypassword')

# Fetch user details
user = session.get_user()
print(user)

# Retrieve all the devices
devices = session.get_all_devices()
print(devices)

Asynchronous Client

import asyncio
from ecactus import AsyncEcos

async def main():
    # Initialize the client
    session = AsyncEcos(datacenter='EU')
    await session.login('email@domain.com', 'mypassword')

    # Fetch user details
    user = await session.get_user()
    print(user)

    # Retrieve all the devices
    devices = await session.get_all_devices()
    print(devices)

asyncio.run(main())

Examples

A set of ready-to-use scripts is available in the examples/ directory.

Documentation

The API references for both Ecos and AsyncEcos clients, is available at: eCactus ECOS API Client Documentation

Development & Contributing

To set up the project for development, clone the repository and install dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/gmasse/ecactus-ecos-py.git
cd ecactus-ecos-py
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
python -m pip install '.[dev]'

We invite you to contribute to the project by opening an issue or pull request to propose new features, fix bugs, or enhance the documentation.

For pending tasks and improvements, please check the TODO.md file.

Automatic Synchronous Code Generation

The ecactus.Ecos synchronous class, defined in src/ecactus/client.py, is automatically generated from the ecactus.AsyncEcos class using scripts/unasync.py. When making changes to the ecactus.AsyncEcos class, you should re-run this script to regenerate the ecactus.Ecos class:

python scripts/unasync.py

This ensures that both the synchronous and asynchronous APIs remain consistent.

To verify that the generated synchronous class matches the asynchronous class, use the --check option:

python scripts/unasync.py --check

This will report any differences between the two classes, allowing you to catch any inconsistencies before submitting your changes.

Code Quality

• Linting: Run ruff to check for code style issues:

  ruff check

• Typing Checks: Use mypy to ensure type correctness:

  mypy

• Unit Tests: Run pytest to execute tests:
