Deye/Solarman Monthly Export

Export a full month of operating data from a Deye inverter via the Solarman Open API and produce a single hourly CSV.

Arguments

$ARGUMENTS — a month in YYYY-MM format. If not provided, use the current month.

Steps

1. Determine target month

• If $ARGUMENTS contains a value matching YYYY-MM, use it. Otherwise use the current month (date +%Y-%m).
• Store as TARGET_MONTH (e.g. 2026-01).

2. Check API credentials

Check if the SOLARMAN_APP_ID environment variable is set:

echo "${SOLARMAN_APP_ID:-NOT_SET}"

• If set → proceed to Step 3 (Run API export).

• If not set → ask the user with AskUserQuestion:

  "Solarman API credentials are not configured. Would you like me to guide you through the setup?"

  Options:

  1. Yes, guide me through API setup — I'll walk you through getting credentials
  2. I'll set them up myself — Show me the required environment variables

  Then follow the API setup guidance below, and tell the user to re-run /export-hourly-deye after setting env vars.

API setup guidance

Walk the user through these steps:

Request API access from Solarman (one-time):

1. Email [e-mail] to request API access (appId and appSecret)
2. Include your Solarman Smart account email address in the request
3. Solarman will reply with your appId and appSecret (typically within a few business days)

Gather station and device info:

4. Open the Solarman Smart app on your phone
5. Find your Station ID: go to plant settings — the station ID is displayed on the plant info page
6. Find your Device SN (inverter serial number): go to device list within the plant — the serial number is displayed on the device page
7. Alternatively, if you leave SOLARMAN_STATION_ID and SOLARMAN_DEVICE_SN unset, the script will auto-discover them from your account (works if you have a single station)

Set environment variables:

8. Add to your shell profile (~/.zshrc, ~/.bashrc) or a .env file:

export SOLARMAN_APP_ID="your_app_id"
export SOLARMAN_APP_SECRET="your_app_secret"
export SOLARMAN_EMAIL="your_solarman_email"
export SOLARMAN_PASSWORD="your_solarman_password"
# Optional — auto-discovered if not set:
export SOLARMAN_STATION_ID="your_station_id"
export SOLARMAN_DEVICE_SN="your_device_sn"

9. Re-run /export-hourly-deye YYYY-MM

3. Run API export

python3 ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/api_export.py TARGET_MONTH

This script:

• Authenticates via the Solarman Open API (SHA256-hashed password)
• Auto-discovers station ID and device SN if not configured
• Fetches 5-minute interval station data for every day via /station/v1.0/history
• Aggregates into hourly buckets
• Writes data/solar_hourly_YYYY-MM.csv

4. Display results

• Read the CSV file and display it to the user.
• Include the summary printed by the script (total days, total readings, total generation, any failures).
• Highlight key monthly observations (peak generation day, average daily production, battery cycling patterns).

Output Schema

The CSV output is identical to the export-hourly-soliscloud skill, so the analyze skill can process it directly.

File: data/solar_hourly_YYYY-MM.csv (or $SOLAR_DATA_DIR/solar_hourly_YYYY-MM.csv when the SOLAR_DATA_DIR environment variable is set — the export script honors it automatically).

Date,Hour,Readings,Avg_PV_W,PV_Energy_kWh,Avg_Battery_W,Battery_Energy_kWh,Avg_Grid_W,Grid_Energy_kWh,Avg_GridLoad_W,GridLoad_Energy_kWh,Avg_BackupLoad_W,BackupLoad_Energy_kWh,Avg_SOC_Pct,Min_SOC_Pct,Max_SOC_Pct

Column	Description
Date	Date (YYYY-MM-DD)
Hour	Hour bucket (HH:00)
Readings	Number of 5-min readings in this hour (typically 12)
Avg_*_W	Average watts for the hour
*_Energy_kWh	avg_watts × readings × 5 / 60 / 1000
Avg_SOC_Pct	Average battery state of charge (%)
Min_SOC_Pct / Max_SOC_Pct	SOC range within the hour

Sign conventions

• Battery: positive = charging, negative = discharging
• Grid: positive = exporting to grid, negative = importing from grid
