python-hilo (aka pyhilo) is a Python 3.9, asyncio-driven interface to the unofficial
Hilo API from Hydro Quebec. This is meant to be integrated into Home Assistant.
Nothing is fully functional right now except for the PoC. Before this package, the Hilo API was returning all information via some REST calls. Since the end of 2021, Hilo has deprecated some of the endpoints including the ones that returns the status of the devices. This was replaced with a websocket system using Google Firebase.

$ source .env
$ ./test.py
