simple-energy-logger

MQTT client that logs energy consumption of Shelly Plugs.

This is a MQTT client that logs energy consumption of devices plugged into a Shelly Plug. Voltage, current, instantaneous active power, and total energy consumed are logged to a csv file. The Plug must run a script that publishes Switch.GetStatus status to a MQTT Broker. Have only tested Shelly PlugPlus US but other Shelly IoT devices should work.

Typical usage example:

• Configure Shelly Plug to run mqtt-switch-status-announce.js at boot up (i.e., enable the script) that publishes Switch.GetStatus status to a MQTT Broker.
• In elogger.py:
  • Set BROKER to your MQTT Broker IP address.
  • Set CSV_FILE_NAME to the file where you want to log the plug's data.
  • Add a dict entry to APPLIANCE_TOPICS that maps your plug's MQTT topic to the appliance name.
• Run MQTT logger client program: $ python3 elogger.py
