How do i use this? about apc-smartconnect-py

[datagutten]

I forgot to update sample.py after removing the class argument, I fixed it now and the script should be working.
Run it like python sample.py [SmartConnect username] [SmartConnect password]

The class should be pretty simple to use, call .login with username and password as arguments, then you can call .gateways to get a dict with information about all UPSs in your account.
The login will only be valid for a limited amount of time, then you have to login again.
I have not been able to make a new login from an existing class instance, so I have to delete the instance and create a new one.

cool. it works now. I'm gonna play a bit with the outputs and see if i can manage to get it into influxdb for visualization with grafana. Hopefully i won't get blocked by apc for running this once every minute.

I recommend that you keep an active session as long as it lasts and do not repeat the login process every minute.
I fear that they might add a captcha if we misuse it.
