REST API – Enabling EVSE with Solar Power

[SjuulD]

Hello everyone,

First of all, this is such a great project! It has been running smoothly for almost a year now, and I'm ready to take the next step.

My goal is to switch the EVSE on when the solar panels generate enough power. I plan to use the REST API for this, but I’m struggling to get it working. I've tried using this command:

http://ESP32-IP/api/enable?state=1

However, it doesn't seem to work. I’m posting this here on GitHub in the hopes that someone can provide documentation or a working example of a correct HTTP call.

Does anyone have experience with this? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Hi, Thanks.
The HTTP API changes over time, I can't generate documentation directly from the code, so it's extra work for me...
But once when I find the time, I plan make OpenAPI definition.

A specific request would look like:

curl "http://<ip>/api/v1/state/enabled" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST --data-raw "true"

For now, I recommend using browser devtool to capture HTPP request in WebUI page.
