HydroQC - Hydro Quebec API wrapper
This is a library to use if you want to build your own solution. If you want a user-friendly implementation for your home automation system please use hydroqc2mqtt which provide a MQTT publisher, docker image and HASS addon.
This is a package to access some functionalities of Hydro Quebec API that are not documented.
We started a discord server for the project where you can come to discuss and find help with the project on our #development channel
