PV Free

A public API for PV modeling parameters.

Usage

Browsing to pvfree.herokuapp.com/api/v1/pvinverter/ will display a JSON string with the first 20 records. The endpoint and query string to obtain the next set api/pvinverter/?limit=20&offset=20 is contained in the next key of the string as are the endpoints for each inverter. Note: the query string ?format=json is only necessary when using the API url directly in a browser to display the response.

The API is generated by the Tastypie django extension. Add the following endpoints to the base URL, https://pvfree.herokuapp.com/:

  • Get first 20 pvinverters.

      api/pvinverter/
    
  • Get first pvinverter.

      api/pvinverter/1/
    
  • Get pvinverter set containing #'s 2, 3, 5, and 10.

      api/pvinverter/set/2;3;5;10/
    
  • Get 100 pvinverters starting from pvinverter # 500.

      api/pvinverter/?limit=100&offset=500
    
  • Get pvinverter database schema.

      api/pvinverter/schema/
    

Python has several libraries for interacting with URLs. The Requests package is available from PyPI.
