.. OpenLEADR documentation master file, created by

   You can adapt this file completely to your liking, but it should at least
   contain the root `toctree` directive.

====================
Welcome to OpenLEADR
====================

A friendly and compliant OpenADR implementation for Python 3.

Key Features
============

- Fully compliant OpenADR 2.0b implementation for both servers (Virtual Top Node) and clients (Virtual End Node)
- Fully asyncio: you set up the coroutines that can handle certain events, and they get called when needed.
- Fully pythonic: all messages are represented as simple Python dictionaries. All XML parsing and generation is done for you.

Take a :ref:`feature_tour`!

Project Status
==============

The current version is |release|.

This project is still a work in progress. Please see our :ref:`roadmap` for information.

License
=======

This project is licensed under the Apache 2.0 license.

Development and contributing
============================

The source code of this project can be found on `GitHub <https://github.com/openleadr>`_. Feature requests, bug reports and pull requests are most welcome and can be posted there.

Library Installation
====================

.. code-block:: bash

   $ pip install openleadr

OpenLEADR is compatible with Python 3.6+

Getting Started
===============

Client example::

    from openleadr import OpenADRClient
    import asyncio

    async def main():
        client = OpenADRClient(ven_name="Device001",
                               vtn_url="http://localhost:8080/OpenADR2/Simple/2.0b")
        client.add_handler('on_event', handle_event)
        await client.run()

    async def handle_event(event):
        """
        This coroutine will be called
        when there is an event to be handled.
        """
        print("There is an event!")
        print(event)
        # Do something to determine whether to Opt In or Opt Out
        return 'optIn'

    loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
    loop.create_task(main())
    loop.run_forever()

This will connect to an OpenADR server (indicated by the vtn_url parameter), handle registration, start polling for events and reports, and will call your coroutines whenever an event or report is created for you.

Representations of OpenADR payloads
===================================

OpenLEADR uses Python dictionaries and vanilla Python types (like datetime and timedelta) to represent the OpenADR payloads. These pages serve as a reference to these representations.

For example, this XML payload:

.. code-block:: xml

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <oadrPayload xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns="http://openadr.org/oadr-2.0b/2012/07" xsi:schemaLocation="http://openadr.org/oadr-2.0b/2012/07 oadr_20b.xsd">
      <oadrSignedObject>
        <oadrResponse ei:schemaVersion="2.0b" xmlns:ei="http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/energyinterop/201110">
          <ei:eiResponse>
            <ei:responseCode>200</ei:responseCode>
            <ei:responseDescription>OK</ei:responseDescription>
            <requestID xmlns="http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/energyinterop/201110/payloads" />
          </ei:eiResponse>
          <ei:venID>o57b65be83</ei:venID>
        </oadrResponse>
      </oadrSignedObject>
    </oadrPayload>

is represented in OpenLEADR as:

.. code-block:: python3

    {'response': {'response_code': 200,
                  'response_description': 'OK'},
     'ven_id': 'o57b65be83'}
