MEW-01 REST API

Hello,
I've just installed a MEW-01 energy meter to examine the daily, weekly and monthly power consumption. My goal is to fetch the current and historical data from the SUPLA CLOUD provided REST API with a Python program. I managed to fetch the current data but I'm missing some knowledge about how to fetch the historical data and I'm looking for sources to get this knowledge.

I found a discussion in the Polish spoken SUPLA forum . Since I do not understand Polish I tried to use google translator. This is tiring :? .

The REST API is documented here SUPLA REST API at swaggerhub . I fetched the current data successfully from /api/channels/1 and subsequently I tried to fetch historical data from /api/channels/1/measurement-logs - but without luck,

I guess that only active energy data for each phase are available as historical data. This is sufficient for me.

My questions are:
  • Does anybody know where to find information how to access historical data. Examples in any programming language are welcome.
  • Does anybody know where the active energy samples are stored - within the MEW-01 or within the SUPLA CLOUD?
  • What is the sample rate or the resolution in time for the data?
I think it is not intended to poll all the time to get the data :-)

Thank you in advance

pzygmunt, thank you.

For those who try to do the same I'll provide my Python code snippets (with private information erased):

Code: Select all

import requests
import json

myAuthorizationString = 'Bearer ...'
mySuplaServer         = 'https://svrxyz.supla.org'
mySuplaChannel        = 123456

def doRequest(uri, headers, params={}):
    apiVersion = "/2.3.0"
    response   = requests.get(mySuplaServer + "/api" + apiVersion + uri, headers=headers, params=params)
    print('request to: ' + response.url)
    print('response code: ' + str(response.status_code))
    return response


# Test No. 1, try to access current data
print("\n--- Try to access current data at /channels/{id}")
uri      = '/channels/' + str(mySuplaChannel) 
headers  = { 'Authorization' : myAuthorizationString, 'Accept' : 'application/json' }
response = doRequest(uri, headers)
if response.status_code == 200:
    parsed = json.loads(response.text)
    print(json.dumps(parsed, indent=4, sort_keys=True)) # pretty print json

# Test No. 2, try to access historical json formatted data
print("\n--- Try to access historical json formatted data at /channels/{id}/measurement-logs")
uri      = '/channels/' + str(mySuplaChannel) + '/measurement-logs' 
params   = { 'order' : 'ASC', 'limit' : '2', 'afterTimestamp' : '1592985331' }
headers  = { 'Authorization' : myAuthorizationString, 'Accept' : 'application/json' }
response = doRequest(uri, headers, params)
if response.status_code == 200:
    parsed = json.loads(response.text)
    print(json.dumps(parsed, indent=4, sort_keys=True)) # pretty print json

# Test No. 3, try to access  historical zipped csv formatted data
print("\n--- Try to access historical zipped csv formatted data at /channels/{id}/measurement-logs-csv")
uri      = '/channels/' + str(mySuplaChannel) + '/measurement-logs-csv'
headers  = { 'Authorization' : myAuthorizationString, 'Accept' : 'application/zip' }
response = doRequest(uri, headers)
if response.status_code == 200:
    with open("data.csv.zip", mode = "wb") as myFile:
        myFile.write(response.content) #save zip-file
Running this script results in:

Sorry, my first test above did not provide the expected "current data". I wonder about the resulting data. But during my try and error I used an undocumented API feature calling the service without API version within the URL. With this shortend URL you'll get the current data.

My example code in Python:

Code: Select all

import requests
import json

myAuthorizationString = 'Bearer ...'
mySuplaServer         = 'https://svrxyz.supla.org'
mySuplaChannel        = 123456

def doRequestWithoutApiVersion(uri, headers, params={}):
    response   = requests.get(mySuplaServer + "/api" + uri, headers=headers, params=params)
    print('request to: ' + response.url)
    print('response code: ' + str(response.status_code))
    return response


# Test No. 1, try to access current data
print("\n--- Try to access current data at /channels/{id}")
uri      = '/channels/' + str(mySuplaChannel) 
headers  = { 'Authorization' : myAuthorizationString, 'Accept' : 'application/json' }
response = doRequestWithoutApiVersion(uri, headers)
if response.status_code == 200:
    parsed = json.loads(response.text)
    print(json.dumps(parsed, indent=4, sort_keys=True)) # pretty print json
and the result when calling the script provides the current data:

Code: Select all

I wonder if this is intended or what the meaning of the data are when doing a GET request to /api/2.3.0/channels/{id}?

I've gained some more knowledge. So as not to use an undocumented feature I modified the request for my first test to the URL with the API-version included. If you add an additional query parameter "include=state" you'll get the current data within the response.

My modified Python code snippet:

Code: Select all

# Test No. 1, try to access current data
print("\n--- Try to access current data at /channels/{id}")
uri      = '/channels/' + str(mySuplaChannel) 
headers  = { 'Authorization' : myAuthorizationString, 'Accept' : 'application/json' }
params   = { 'include' : 'state' }
response = doRequest(uri, headers, params)
if response.status_code == 200:
    parsed = json.loads(response.text)
    print(json.dumps(parsed, indent=4, sort_keys=True)) # pretty print json
The calling's result:

Code: Select all

Some more understanding about the historical json formatted data:

The timestamp denotes epoch time (time_t) GMT. The sample interval is 600 seconds (10 minutes).

The identifiers are made of
  • fae -> forward active energy
  • rae -> reverse active energy
  • fre -> forward reactive energy
  • rre -> reverse reactive energy
The energy values are accumulated and have to divided by 100.000 to get the values in kWh.
