## About

Sending sensor measurements, data, or GPS positions from embedded devices, microcontrollers, and [smartwatches](https://github.com/firefly-cpp/AST-Monitor) to the central server is sometimes complicated and tricky. Setting up the primary data collection scripts can be time-consuming (selecting a protocol, framework, API, testing it, etc.). Usually, scripts are written for a specific task; thus, they are not easily adaptive to other tasks. succulent is a pure Python framework that simplifies the configuration, management, collection, and preprocessing of data collected via POST requests. The inspiration for the framework comes from the practical data collection challenges in [smart agriculture](https://github.com/firefly-cpp/smart-agriculture-datasets/tree/main/plant-monitoring-esp32). The main idea of the framework was to speed up the process of configuring different collected parameters and providing several useful functions for data transformations. The framework allows users to configure the whole endpoint for data collection in several minutes and thus not spend time on server-side scripts.

## Detailed insights
The current version includes (but is not limited to) the following functions:

- Request URL generation for data collection
- Data collection from POST requests
- Storing data in different formats (CSV, JSON, SQLite)

## Installation

### pip

Install succulent with pip:

```sh
pip install succulent
```
### Alpine Linux

To install succulent on Alpine Linux, please use:

```sh
$ apk add py3-succulent
```

## Container

[Basic container for succulent](https://github.com/firefly-cpp/succulent-container)

## Usage

### Example

```python
from succulent.api import SucculentAPI
api = SucculentAPI(host='0.0.0.0', port=8080, config='configuration.yml', format='csv')
api.start()
```

## Configuration
In the root directory, create a file named `configuration.yml` and define the following:
```yml
data:
  - name: # Measure name
    min: # Minimum value (optional)
    max: # Maximum value (optional)
```
