Add support for multiple connectors

[myny-git]

Based on the discussion here: smartenergycontrol-be/home-assistant-smappee-charging-profiles#17 (comment)
@scruysberghs and @carroarmato0

I did not implement two connectors, as I have no idea how the curl request responds. Therefore, can you evaluate what it does, then, we can take a look how to implement it.

    url_all_devices = f"{BASE_URL}/servicelocation/{self.service_location_id}/smartdevices"
    url_device = f"{BASE_URL}/servicelocation/{self.service_location_id}/smartdevices/{self.smart_device_id}"

==> to get session state, percentagleLimit, min/max current, min surplus and LED brigthness
==> to set percentageLimit, min surplus and LED brightness

set charging mode:
For SMART / SOLAR

url = f"(BASE_URL}/servicelocation/{self.service_location_id}/smartdevices/{self.smart_device_uuid}/actions/setChargingMode"

for NORMAL
url = f"{BASE_URL}/chargingstations/{self.serial}/connectors/1/mode"

The 1 here is connector 1, we need to just provide an extra variable. However, it has consequences on the whole integration. Maybe, at that point, it would be interesting to have a charging mode select entity per connector.
Same for the current slider maybe?

start/pause/stop charging:

        url = f"{BASE_URL}/servicelocation/{self.service_location_id}/smartdevices/{self.smart_device_uuid}/actions/startCharging"
        url = f"{BASE_URL}/servicelocation/{self.service_location_id}/smartdevices/{self.smart_device_uuid}/actions/pauseCharging"
 url = f"{BASE_URL}/servicelocation/{self.service_location_id}/smartdevices/{self.smart_device_uuid}/actions/stopCharging"

    Problem is: do we have another smart device uuid for the other connector? I guess so, otherwise you start charging sessions for both.
   
   set percentageLimit:

url = f"{BASE_URL}/servicelocation/{self.service_location_id}/smartdevices/{self.smart_device_uuid}/actions/setPercentageLimit"
Same comment as above.

set available/unavailable:
url = f"{BASE_URL}/servicelocation/{self.service_location_id}/smartdevices/{self.serial}/actions/setAvailable"
Same comment as above.

    set min surplus:
            url = f"{BASE_URL}/servicelocation/{self.service_location_id}/smartdevices/{self.smart_device_id}"
            
            I guess, it would be nice if you could do some pretesting on your device with all those curls and document the impact. Then, we can see how this integration can be improved based on your feedback?

Maybe, at that point, it would be interesting to have a charging mode select entity per connector. Same for the current slider maybe?

I would suggest treating the 2 connectors same as 2 charging stations, that can be controlled individually. You notice in evcc for example charging stations with multiple connectors are also added as 2 separate charging stations. Each can have car connected or not etc ...
Could perhaps be solved in the HA integration by adding the device twice? Once with connid 1 , once with connid 2

See for example the advanced settings for the charx charger : https://docs.evcc.io/en/docs/devices/chargers#charx
evcc would then allow you to set a priority so that with a car connected to each connector and charging in solar mode one would be prioritised

[myny-git]

This makes sense as well. Then you have to load the integration twice, whereby the connectorID is either 1 or 2.
Today, this is hardcoded (1), but that can change.

These are the steps we need to figure out:

1. Get servicelocations
   https://smappee.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DEVAPI/pages/526483487/Get+Servicelocations
   I am guessing you only have 1. You need to save the servicelocationid.
2. Get serviclocation info
   https://smappee.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DEVAPI/pages/526614552/Get+Servicelocation+Info
   With this one, I see in appliances 1 charging station.
3. Get smart devices
   https://smappee.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DEVAPI/pages/1447165953/Get+Smart+Devices
   I see three devices:

• CARCHARGER-XXXXX ==> configuration properties: etc.smart.device.type.car.charger.smappee.charger.number connect 1

This part of the screen belongs to the first Carcharger. - LED-XXXXX ==> I don’t do anything with it - CARCHARGER-XXXX ==> here you can do following actions: set LED brightness, available, unavailable so I guess this is the combined charging station with one action for both

For the second connector:
I am guessing here that you have an additional carcharger-Xxxx in the smartdevices with its own settings.

But prior to the implementation, let’s first see the result of the curl requests

Alright, I'm behind my computer and able to do some queries.
Using curl after obtaining a token, I'm able to get the following information (which I will obfuscate a bit due to this also not being my own charging station:

$ curl -H "Authorization: Bearer xxxxxxxxxx" https://app1pub.smappee.net/dev/v3/servicelocation/<service_location_id>/info

Thanks, very useful! These readings are close to the gutfeeling. I will check what I can do.

In a second phase, if you are interested, we could evaluate the modbus readings for those, as you have 2 carchargers. you could already play around with this …

[carroarmato0]

With modbus I have some basic knowledge. Let me know if I can test this remotely (modbus tcp?). I have access to the HA instance, but, the owner of the charging station is a professional industrial technician, so I can relay specific things to him to checkout on site for modbus and I'm sure he'd be glad to extract any information needed.

[myny-git]

Yes it is modbus tcp, but does it have a Smappee connect or so? I do not see grid or pv in the json response

[carroarmato0]

I know he has "2 locations", they are both on the same address, one I think is the "Genius" thingamagjig, and the EV charging station is a separate one. If that makes sense? For that he uses the official integration.

[myny-git]

Ok, interesting! This setup will help us to design the code ready for a small charging park, controlled by evcc or home assistant: 2 locations, each 2 connectors.
maybe can you do an additional curl: get smartdevices for the other service location?
But we’ll try to solve the challenges one by one. My first prio is to enable both controllers.

regarding the modbus: if he has a Genius, then he should use the official integration, that’s realtime as well.

[carroarmato0]

I did a comparison between both locations, and they both are identical (identical uuid for the same charging connectors), so I think it's just a weird administration thing where there are 2 different locations but with the same address and both having the same charging station.

As for the official Smappee integration, I see that he has 2 devices enabled by smappeeCloud:

• Smappee Ethernet Connect (which is the charging station but very limited and read only)
• Smappee Genius

[myny-git]

If you do the following curl, you get:
https://app1pub.smappee.net/dev/v3/servicelocation
You would receive following:
{
"appName":"MyFirstApp",
"serviceLocations":[
{
"name":"Home",
"serviceLocationUuid":"6eefadeb-5c08-47cd-87b6-9897acb9fb8f",
"serviceLocationId":1,
"deviceSerialNumber": "5010000022"
},
{
"name":"Beach resort",
"serviceLocationUuid":"550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000",
"serviceLocationId":2
"deviceSerialNumber": "5010000502"
}
]
}
As such, I see two serial numbers, which is perfect, because then, we can distinguish between them. I'll start thinking how to implement this.

As for the official Smappee integration, I see that he has 2 devices enabled by smappeeCloud:

• Smappee Ethernet Connect (which is the charging station but very limited and read only)
• Smappee Genius

I beleive that the Genius is the master, also reading out the Connect. If correct, you should see all live values of both chargingstations. If not, then, we can follow the procedure of the Connect which I described in the docs to obtain the modbus interface.

[myny-git]

What do you see on the dashboard? one or two serial numbers? This will just impact how we can handle more than one locations, I think.

[myny-git]

I did a comparison between both locations, and they both are identical (identical uuid for the same charging connectors), so I think it's just a weird administration thing where there are 2 different locations but with the same address and both having the same charging station.

Ok, but you mentioned he has 2 charging stations, each 2 connectors. That's an interesting case for our code. I don't mind if uuid is the same between charging stations, as we can distinguish first the charging station, then the connector. But we need to know whether
(1) there are two serial numbers - in the app and in the response for both charging stations
(2) or one serial number, with two service location id's.

If latter is the case, we need to change a bit in the code, as the unique id depends on the serial number, not on the location id. Then, it would be better to have it linked to location id.

Thanks for looking into this!

Not seeing anything new in the device screen, but I'm getting the following similar entries in the logs:

....

Curiously, I have no idea where XXXXXXXXXX comes from, but YYYYYYYYYYY is definitely the ID of the charging station.

On a more annoying side, I've looked at the code. You are looking for a value for "etc.smart.device.type.car.charger.smappee.charger.number", but given the API response, it looks like the value is not required, and indeed, it's blank. The only way from a human point of view to distinguish connecter 1 or 2, is by looking at the name property: "SOME_NAME - 1" and "SOME_NAME - 2". SO the API leaves to be desired...

[myny-git]

I created a fallback option, if connector_number = none, then take the number in the name.
Let me know if it works --> version 2025.8.6b21

[carroarmato0]

I had to remove and re-add the device for it to properly load. But it looks promising!

I'm currently not behind my laptop, so I will probably do some additional testes tomorrow to compare with the dashboard and see what happens when the buttons are being used.
But this is already looking very good :)

Fantastic, that's what I was hoping for. Some entities are charger-specific, some are connector-specific.
I will not open it as 2025.8.7, only after confirmation this works properly. Let's wait for the weekend to test everything out.

All: feel free to test your integration with version 2025.8.6b21. you need to remove and re-add the integration once. Take care, some entities have a new name!
