hyponcloud 1.0.0

Python library for Hypontech Cloud API

Hypontech Cloud API Python Library

A Python library for interacting with the Hypontech Cloud API for solar inverter monitoring.

Features

• Async/await support using aiohttp
• Get plant overview data (power, energy production, device status)
• Get plant list
• Get plant monitor data (real-time energy, power, earnings, environmental impact)
• Get inverter list for each plant
• Get battery list for each plant
• Get administrator information
• Automatic token management and refresh
• Built-in retry logic for rate limiting
• Type hints for better IDE support
• Comprehensive error handling

Installation

pip install hyponcloud

Quick Start

Running the Example Script

example.py accepts credentials and an optional OEM ID as command-line arguments:

python example.py <username> <password> [oem]

OEM defaults to 0 (Hypon). For non-default OEM accounts, pass the ID listed in OEMS.md, for example Nexen:

python example.py <username> <password> 4

It can also read credentials from environment variables:

HYPONCLOUD_USERNAME=your_username HYPONCLOUD_PASSWORD=your_password HYPONCLOUD_OEM=4 python example.py

Or from a .env file next to example.py:

HYPONCLOUD_USERNAME=your_username
HYPONCLOUD_PASSWORD=your_password
HYPONCLOUD_OEM=4

Basic Usage

import asyncio
from hyponcloud import HyponCloud

async def main():
    # Create client with your credentials
    async with HyponCloud("your_username", "your_password") as client:
        # Connect and authenticate
        await client.connect()

        # Get overview data
        overview = await client.get_overview()
        print(f"Current power: {overview.power}W")
        print(f"Today's energy: {overview.e_today}kWh")
        print(f"Total energy: {overview.e_total}kWh")

        # Get plant list
        plants = await client.get_list()
        print(f"Number of plants: {len(plants)}")

        # Get inverters for a specific plant
        if plants:
            inverters = await client.get_inverters(plants[0].plant_id)
            print(f"Number of inverters: {len(inverters)}")
            for inverter in inverters:
                print(f"  {inverter.model}: {inverter.power}W")

        # Get batteries for a specific plant
        if plants:
            batteries = await client.get_batteries(plants[0].plant_id)
            print(f"Number of batteries: {len(batteries)}")
            for battery in batteries:
                print(f"  {battery.manufacturer}: {battery.soc:g}%")

        # Get real-time monitor data for a specific plant
        if plants:
            monitor = await client.get_monitor(plants[0].plant_id)
            print(f"Today's energy: {monitor.e_today}kWh")
            print(f"Performance: {monitor.percent:g}%")
            print(f"Total earnings: {monitor.total_earning} {monitor.monetary}")

        # Get administrator information
        admin = await client.get_admin_info()
        print(f"Admin user: {admin.username}")
        print(f"Email: {admin.email}")

asyncio.run(main())

For non-default OEM accounts, pass the OEM ID from OEMS.md:

async with HyponCloud("your_username", "your_password", oem=4) as client:
    await client.connect()

Using with Custom aiohttp Session

import aiohttp
from hyponcloud import HyponCloud

async def main():
    async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
        client = HyponCloud("your_username", "your_password", session=session)

        await client.connect()
        overview = await client.get_overview()
        print(f"Power: {overview.power}W")

asyncio.run(main())

Configuring Retries

You can configure retry behavior globally at the client level, or override it per method call:

from hyponcloud import HyponCloud

async def main():
    # Set global retries to 5 for all API calls
    async with HyponCloud("username", "password", retries=5) as client:
        await client.connect()

        # Uses 5 retries (global setting)
        overview = await client.get_overview()

        # Override for specific call (uses 1 retry)
        plants = await client.get_list(retries=1)

        # Disable retries for this call
        admin = await client.get_admin_info(retries=0)

asyncio.run(main())

Error Handling

from hyponcloud import (
    HyponCloud,
    RequestError,
    AuthenticationError,
    RateLimitError,
)

async def main():
    try:
        async with HyponCloud("username", "password") as client:
            await client.connect()
            overview = await client.get_overview()
            print(f"Power: {overview.power}W")

    except AuthenticationError as e:
        print(f"Authentication failed: {e}")
    except RateLimitError as e:
        print(f"Rate limit exceeded: {e}")
    except RequestError as e:
        print(f"Connection error: {e}")

asyncio.run(main())

Logging

The library logs each API request and response status at the DEBUG level using the standard logging module, under the hyponcloud logger. Credentials and the authentication token are never logged. Enable it to see the requests being made:

import logging

logging.getLogger("hyponcloud").setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

This is independent of the debug constructor argument, which instead prints full HTTP responses (with the token redacted) to stdout.

API Reference
