[Ovmsdev] [Dev] SoC from logs

[Tom Saxton]

Hi Julien,

I'm not sure exactly what you're asking, but there are a number of ways
you can get the SOC from OVMS.

- The STAT text message, as you mentioned.
- Current SOC via the HTTP API.
- If logging is enabled, SOC and start and end of each drive and charge
segment is available via HTTP API.
- Recent SOC history from the server's cache of recent reports from the
car, available via HTTP.
- If you're running your own server, as Nikki described in her blog, you
can get the SOC from the database.

I have a Perl script that demonstrates how to use the HTTP API to get
information from the OVMS server.

At the top of the attached Perl script, fill in your OVMS server username,
password and vehicle identifier string. If you're using a server other
than tmc.openvehicles.com, you'll need to search and replace the API URL
for your server.

When you run the script, it will first dump out the car's current status,
then optionally more information.

To see the server's cached records, run the command:

   ovms-query.pl server

The SOC is in the 'S' record. The script shows how to extract that value.

If you have logging enabled, you can get the charge records with this
command:

   ovms-query.pl charge

And the drive segment records with this command:

   ovms-query.pl drive

I have another script that I run once per day to download all of the
server records and accumulate them into a log file on my machine. I'd be
happy to share that as well.

   Tom
