monitor-batteries

monitor-batteries monitors batteries state, MQTT publishing optional.

Examples

To monitor batteries with IDs 2 thru 6, and publish to MQTT and a local web page on port 8000, you can run:

$ ./wombatt monitor-batteries -w :8000 -p /dev/ttyUSB1 --mqtt-broker tcp://127.0.0.1:1883 --mqtt-user youruser --mqtt-password yourpassword --battery-id 2,3,4,5,6

The default prefix for the items added to MQTT is eg4 (i.e., homeassistant/eg4_battery2_info/...).

The same infomation is made available via web on port 8000 (http://127.0.0.1:8000/battery/2 and so on) as text or JSON (add ?format=json to the URL), with the ability to request specific fields (?fields=<name>).
