Open Source CSV & Chart Client Documentation

To access the API a client is required. Ecodata GmbH provides several different clients for certain languages as open source for its customers. This document describes the “Chart Client” and the “CSV Client”. Both of those clients are PHP Implementations and base on the same source code. While the chart client’s task is to provide a visual representation of the data, the intention of the CSV client is to provide an interface for external applications such as phone apps, external analysis programs or even Microsoft Excel. The API Clients interface the XMLRPC API as defined in the “PowerDog API Description”, collect and integrate the data to print it out in a different, more basic format. The intention is to make the data easier to work with for users and also to speed up the implementation process.
