It exposes a layered API: low-level packet parsing (greeneye.packets), stream processing (greeneye.streams), or higher-level monitor state tracking (greeneye.monitor) for single or multiple devices. The library computes rate-of-change metrics (Watts, pulses/sec) alongside cumulative totals, making it suitable for integration into home automation systems, energy dashboards, or data pipelines.\n\nThe package is designed as a data-collection layer, not a standalone application\u2014it provides no built-in storage, visualization, or external integrations. You configure your GreenEye Monitor to send binary packets to your computer, then use greeneye-monitor to parse and act on that stream. It depends on aiohttp for async networking and siobrultech-protocols for packet format definitions.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you own a GreenEye Monitor and need to integrate its data into a Python application. The library is stable, has no known vulnerabilities, and supports current Python versions (3.10, 3.11, 3.12). However, dormant maintenance (no updates in 908 days) means you should not expect bug fixes or feature additions; evaluate whether the existing API meets your needs before committing."},"id":"greeneye-monitor","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/greeneye-monitor","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/greeneye-monitor.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/greeneye-monitor/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2024-02-18","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"greeneye_monitor","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Receive data packets from GreenEye Monitor (http://www.brultech.com/greeneye/)"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":74747,"position":14798,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"5.0.2"}
