_Unofficial API client for [Pod Point][pod_point_web] with a focus on home users._


## Installation

```bash
pip install podpointclient
```

## Usage

The [Pod Point Client][pod_point_client] supports the following methods:

Method | Description
---|---
`async_get_pods()` | *Get all pods from a user's account* - Returns a list of `Pod` objects.
`async_get_pod(pod_id=1234)` | *Gets an individual pod* - Returns a single `Pod`. *_NOTE: The Pod Point API does not support a single-pod return so this method gets all pods and filters._*
`async_set_schedule(enabled=False, pod=pod)` | *Updates a pod with a week of schedules that will enable or disable charging* - See setting charging schedules for more information on how this works.
`async_get_charges(per_page=5, page=2)` | *Get charges for a user* - Returns a list of `Charge` objects. `per_page` can be 'all', or a number. Can get additional pages with `page` attribute.

### Example

The below walks through a common scenario: 

1. Get all pods
1. Updating the schedule of an individual pod
1. Confirm that it worked

> `PodPointClient` is async by default so the below example assumes you are running it within an async function.

```python
from podpointclient import PodPointClient

# Create a client
client = PodPointClient(username="test@example.com", password="passw0rd!1")

# Get all pods for a user
pods = await client.async_get_pods()

# Select one to update schedules for
pod = pods[0]

# Update schedule to disabled (allow charging at any time)
await client.async_set_schedule(enabled=False, pod=pod)

# Get just that pod
pod = await client.async_get_pod(pod_id=pod.id)
# Check if the schedule is disabled
schedule_status = pod.charge_schedules[0].is_active
print(schedule_status)
```

### Setting charging schedules

> **NOTE:** According to Pod Point, schedules can take up to 5 minutes to be recognised by a device. This applies to both updating of a schedule affecting a device, and the device recognising that it is active/inactive due to entering/exiting a schedule window.

Currently this client supports setting the same schedule across all days for the week. By default it is designed to be used as an on/off switch for charging and creates a schedule lasting 1 second, from 00:00:00 - 00:00:01.

Due to the delay in pods recognising that they are in/out of a schedule this realistically means charging is turned off when this schedule is enabled.

You are able to pass a start_time and end_time when setting schedules but these are set for all days and are in-day only. By which I mean passing `start_time="18:00"` and `end_time="00:15"` will fail as `00:15` is before the start time.
