Direct Energy Partners has created a repository that allows customers to develop their own applications, called dep-ppl-app. This repository contains all the necessary files and examples to help you get started. The dep-ppl-app repository includes:
  • A bash script named install.sh for installing dependencies listed in the requirements.txt file.
  • The pplapp module.
  • A boilerplate template script to help you start writing your own application.
  • A .env file that stores the username and password for the NATS client connection.
  • Example application scripts.
Below, you will find detailed instructions on how to fork, clone and modify the files in the dep-ppl-app repository, install the Python libraries and how to run your applications. Additionally, the instructions include guidance on writing your own applications using the pplapp module and its built-in functions.
GitHub will help you safely track and save your changes as you work.
