import time
import amberelectric
from amberelectric.rest import ApiException
from pprint import pprint

# Defining the host is optional and defaults to https://api.amber.com.au/v1
# See configuration.py for a list of all supported configuration parameters.
configuration = amberelectric.Configuration(
    host = "https://api.amber.com.au/v1"
)

# The client must configure the authentication and authorization parameters
# in accordance with the API server security policy.
# Examples for each auth method are provided below, use the example that
# satisfies your auth use case.

# Configure Bearer authorization: apiKey
configuration = amberelectric.Configuration(
    access_token = os.environ["BEARER_TOKEN"]
)


# Enter a context with an instance of the API client
with amberelectric.ApiClient(configuration) as api_client:
    # Create an instance of the API class
    api_instance = amberelectric.AmberApi(api_client)
    site_id = '01J23BAP2SFA218BMV8A73Y9Z9' # str | ID of the site you are fetching prices for. Can be found using the `/sites` enpoint
    next = 48 # int | Return the _next_ number of forecast intervals (optional)
    previous = 48 # int | Return the _previous_ number of actual intervals. (optional)
    resolution = 56 # int | Specify the required interval duration resolution. Valid options: 5, 30. Default: Your billing interval length. (optional)

    try:
        api_response = api_instance.get_current_prices(site_id, next=next, previous=previous, resolution=resolution)
        print("The response of AmberApi->get_current_prices:\n")
        pprint(api_response)
    except ApiException as e:
        print("Exception when calling AmberApi->get_current_prices: %s\n" % e)
