Green Button® Subscriber for Node

Handles the OAuth authentication, downloading, and parsing of Green Button® data.

Important Notes

This code is for use with the Green Button Connect My Data® (CMD) standard. Before it can be used with your utility company, you may have to undergo a registration and approval process with that utility company to be formerly registered as a third party solution provider.

❗ Due to the extensive registration process and the need to be a customer with the utility company to access data, this module is currently only tested with UtilityAPI's Green Button® CMD implementation.

Installation

npm install @cityssm/green-button-subscriber

Usage

⭐ All output is parsed and returned as a fully typed object. ⭐

import { GreenButtonSubscriber } from '@cityssm/green-button-subscriber'

const configuration = {
  baseUrl: 'https://greenbutton.example.com/',
  accessToken: '0123456789abcdef'
}

// Pass the base URL, client ID, client secret, etc.
const greenButtonSubscriber = new GreenButtonSubscriber(configuration)

// Get the authorizations
const greenButtonResponse = await greenButtonSubscriber.getAuthorizations()
