Ripple Energy

A Python package For interacting with the Ripple Energy GraphQL API.

The primary purpose of this package is to create an interface for Home Assistant to communicate with the Ripple Energy GraphQL API however, the facility is available to develop this module further by adding additional queries / functions.

Disclaimer - I do not work for Ripple Energy however, I have memberships in some of their co-ops. While this module has been developed in consultation with Ripple Energy, I cannot guarantee it's long-term support or stability.

Installation

From Package Index

It is recommended to use pip to pull the package from PyPi

pip install ripple-energy

From Repository

Clone this repository

git clone https://github.com/danieledwardgeorgehitchcock/ripple-energy.git

This project leverages the use of Hatch for project management - please follow the installation instructions there before continuing.

Once the above has completed, enter in to the project directory

cd ripple-energy

As this package is managed by Hatch, you can start an environment which automatically pulls the project dependencies

hatch shell start

You should then be able to use the package from within this environment.

Example

from ripple_energy import RippleEnergy, RippleEnergyCredentialAuth
import asyncio
from sys import platform

if(platform == "win32"):
  asyncio.set_event_loop_policy(asyncio.WindowsSelectorEventLoopPolicy()) #Avoid event loop selector policy error in Windows

async def main():

  auth = RippleEnergyCredentialAuth(email="YOUR_RIPPLE_EMAIL", password="YOUR_RIPPLE_PASSWORD")

  async with RippleEnergy(auth=auth) as ripple:

      #Query filter
      faqs = await ripple.faqs("business")

      #Full object response
      print(faqs)

      member = await ripple.member()

      #Filtered object response
      print(member.address)

      version = await ripple.version()

      #Simple type response
      print(version)

      #More complex query with input parameters
      insights = await ripple.insights_chart(input={"genFarmId": "1", "startDate": "2023-09-25T23:00:00.000Z", "endDate": "2023-09-26T16:02:24.272Z", "period":"Day"})

      print(insights)

if __name__ == "__main__":
  asyncio.run(main())

Contributing

To add a new query to this module, add the GraphQL query into the src/ripple_energy/graphql_queries folder as a file with the extension .graphql such as: my_example_query.graphql - please see the existing queries as an example of how to write them.

In a terminal, make sure you are in the Hatch shell environment:

hatch shell start

This project uses the Ariadne code generator. To run it:

ariadne-codegen

If there no errors, a new client should be generated in the src/ripple_energy/graphql_client folder.

Add the new function to src/ripple_energy/ripple_energy.py - please see the existing functions as an example of how to write them.

Commit the changes and create a Pull Request in this repo.
