Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

This plugin brings the battery level of your Kiwigrid powered PV battery to HomeKit.

WTH is Kiwigrid?

Kiwigrid is a german Smart Metering platform you might already be using with your PV plant.

If you are using a PV battery from SOLARWATT like I do and you are used to check your stats on their EnergyManager portal, you're ready to go.

Other battery manufacturers might also be supported. In lack of a basement full of PV batteries I could just not test others.

Finding your local API gateway

To use this Homebridge plugin, you need to know the IP address of your local API gateway sending your data to Kiwigrid.

This device has to be located on the same local network as your homebridge host

Scan your local network to find this device. If you find possible candidates, try them with this URL:

http://IPADDRESS/rest/kiwigrid/wizard/devices

You should get a tiny JSON response immediately. If you do, congratulations, this is you local API gateway.

If you are using SOLARWATT's EnergyManager, you can find the local IP address easily. Just head over to the portal, login and click on the highlighted menu:
