Using the Python SDK for automation and scripts

Automating Leafy Energy with Python

Many data and integration teams prefer Python. In the Leafy Energy demo we therefore introduce a fictional Python SDK that illustrates typical automation scenarios.

Installation (concept)

pip install leafyenergy-sdk

Sample script: show tomorrow's cheapest hour

from leafyenergy import LeafyClient

client = LeafyClient(
    api_key="YOUR_SANDBOX_API_KEY",
    base_url="https://api.sandbox.leafy.energy"
)

prices = client.pricing.get_day_ahead(site_id="home_001")
cheapest = min(prices.hours, key=lambda h: h.price)

print("Cheapest hour:", cheapest.timestamp, "price:", cheapest.price, prices.currency)

With scripts like this you can demonstrate how data scientists or energy analysts might work with Leafy Energy.
