**Tests:** 
## solarmanpv adapter for ioBroker
Reading data from balcony power plant
### Getting started
This adapter is used to display data of a balcony power plant, which
is provided by a inverter "Bosswerk MI600" in ioBroker. This inverter
is compatible with others in the Deye family.
I assume that the plant is monitored by the app "Solarman" so far.
This adapter gets the data from this cloud.
First you have to ask Solarman support <service@solarmanpv.com> for
the needed Credentials (app_id & app_secret) must be requested.
There may still be a query of the type, "I need to ask what platform
are you using? What is your role? Are you an individual, O&M provider,
manufacturer, or distributor? Can you give me your email address for
the API?". In my case, another query then came: "Why are you applying
for API?". I politely answered this question as well and was sent the
necessary data the next day.
On the admin page the 4 fields have to be according to the description.
This adapter is created as a "scheduled" adapter.
Since the data in the cloud is updated only about every 6 minutes,
it does not make to start the adapter more frequently.
Since version 0.3.0, in contrast to the previous versions, a blacklist
is made possible. This means that "all" values supplied by the Api are
read in and the user can filter out the values that are not needed via
the blacklist. The corresponding data points can be deleted, which
makes the number of objects clearer.
Since 16.04.2023 Solarman has switched to a new platform - version 0.4.0.
Further adaptations of the api, as far as they exist, have not been made.
In versions 0.5.2 to 0.6.x, only developer adjustments were made.
In version 0.7.0, the node-js was raised to the recommended version 20.x
and the js-controller >6 was made a prerequisite. Email and app-secret are
encrypted. Therefore, both values must be entered again after an update!
In version 0.7.1, only minor adjustments were made to the instance view.
Potentially sensitive data such as “activeToken” should be encrypted, but
this does not work reliably. Therefore, this was rolled back in version 0.7.3.
## Compatibility
- Tested with Node.js 22
- Tested with js-controller 7
- Incorrectly typed existing ioBroker states are repaired automatically during the next adapter run
- Manual deletion of existing objects is not required
