Due the rising power prices in germany, i want to collect data from awattar for price comparison between awattar and my local power deliver company.
I have downloaded a python script for collecting the data and due my lack of programming skill its an try and error quest.
what i have done so far
Telegraf Conf
[[inputs.exec]]
commands = ["/usr/bin/python3 /etc/telegraf/scripts/awattar-api.py"]
timeout = "10s"
data_format = "prometheus"
python code / source GitHub - Gransi/awattar: Python client for aWATTar API
import sys
from datetime import datetime
date= datetime.utcnow() - datetime(1970, 1, 1)
seconds =(date.total_seconds())
milliseconds = round(seconds*1000)
from awattar import AwattarClient
#unix_timestamp = time.time()
def main(argv):
# print ('Connect to aWATTar')
client = AwattarClient('DE')
# print ('Get Market data from API')
data = client.request()
# for item in data:
# print(f'{item.start_datetime:%s} - {(item.marketprice / 1000):.4f}')
for item in data:
print(f'awattar-{item.start_datetime:%H} {milliseconds} {(item.marketprice / 1000):4f}')
if __name__ == "__main__":
main(sys.argv[1:])
