A Python 3 API package for the [Scoly] framework.

## Usage
Create a `ScolyAPI` instance for each **Location** you're dealing with: -

    from scoly_api.client import Scoly
    from datetime import datetime
    client = Scoly(
        scoly_url="127.0.0.1:8000",
        location="Red Dwarf",
        location_api_access_code="033589a1-c17d-45e0-bbaa-a5122300c9f3",
    )

And then add sensor events, which will be transmitted to **Scoly** when the
cache is full: -

    client.add_sensor_data(
        sensor="Rimmer",
        timestamp_utc=datetime.now(),
        data={"battery": 67, "presence": False, "celsius": 23.4, "lux": 45.6}
    )

By default the cache will be flushed when it contains 50 events or if the
cache contents are older than 6 minutes. You can set your own
values when you initialise the `ScolyAPI` instance with some extra parameters.
To set a cache size of 10 and maximum age of 2 minutes initialise the ScolyAPI
instance like this: -

    client = Scoly(
        [...],
        sensor_event_cache_size = 10,
        sensor_event_cache_period = 120,
    )

If either value is zero sensor data will be transmitted on each call to
`add_sensor_data()`.

There is no background task. After 6 minutes events will not be transmitted,
instead they will b e transmitted on the next call to `add_sensor_data()`.
Alternatively, you can also flush cached data immediately by calling `flush()`: -

    client.flush()

## Building
The project is managed by [Poetry], so you can build and install the project
forcing version 1.0.0 with: -

    rm -rf dist
    poetry version 1.0.0
    poetry build

And then install locally with `pip`: -

    pip install dist/*.whl

When you're done you can uninstall the API package with pip: -

    pip uninstall -y matildapeak_scoly_api

## Contributing
The project uses: -

- [Poetry] for dependency management and packaging
- [Pre-commit] to enforce linting of files prior to committing them to the
  upstream repository
- [Conventional Commits] commit message format
- [Black] as a code formatter

You **MUST** comply with these choices in order to  contribute to the project.

To get started review the pre-commit utility and the conventional commit style
and then set-up your local clone by following the **Installation** and
**Quick Start** sections: -

    poetry shell
    poetry install --with dev
    pre-commit install -t commit-msg -t pre-commit

Now the project's rules will run on every commit, and you can check the
current health of your clone with: -

    pre-commit run --all-files
