# Datacat

Collect metrics from Whisker Litter Robot devices and submit to Datadog.

Datacat connects to the Whisker API (used by Litter-Robot and Feeder-Robot devices) and periodically collects metrics, submitting them to Datadog for monitoring and alerting.

## Supported Devices

- **Litter-Robot 3** - Original connected litter box
- **Litter-Robot 4** - Newer model with additional sensors
- **Feeder-Robot** - Automatic pet feeder

## Features

- Collects metrics from all connected robots every 2 minutes (configurable)
- Submits metrics to Datadog via DogStatsD
- Emits Datadog events for state changes (drawer full, offline, errors)
- Supports pet profile metrics (weight, health status)
- Dry-run mode for testing without submitting metrics
- Configuration via environment variables or YAML file

## Installation

### Using UV (recommended)

```bash
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/datacat.git
cd datacat

# Install with UV
uv sync

# Run
uv run python -m datacat
```

### Using pip

```bash
pip install .
datacat
```

### Using Docker

```bash
# Build the image
docker build -t datacat .

# Run with environment variables
docker run -d \
  -e WHISKER_USERNAME=your-email@example.com \
  -e WHISKER_PASSWORD=your-password \
  -e DATADOG_API_KEY=your-api-key \
  datacat
```

## Configuration

Datacat can be configured via environment variables, a YAML config file, or both. Environment variables take precedence over config file values.

### Environment Variables

| Variable | Description | Required |
|----------|-------------|----------|
| `WHISKER_USERNAME` | Whisker account email | Yes |
| `WHISKER_PASSWORD` | Whisker account password | Yes |
| `DATADOG_API_KEY` | Datadog API key | Yes |
| `DATADOG_APP_KEY` | Datadog application key | No |
| `DATADOG_SITE` | Datadog site (default: `datadoghq.com`) | No |
| `DATACAT_POLL_INTERVAL` | Polling interval in seconds (default: `120`) | No |
| `DATACAT_INCLUDE_PETS` | Include pet metrics (default: `true`) | No |
| `DATACAT_EMIT_EVENTS` | Emit Datadog events (default: `true`) | No |
| `DATACAT_METRIC_PREFIX` | Metric prefix (default: `litterrobot`) | No |
| `DATACAT_CONFIG_FILE` | Path to YAML config file | No |

### Config File (YAML)

```yaml
whisker:
  username: "your-email@example.com"
  password: "your-password"

datadog:
  api_key: "your-datadog-api-key"
  app_key: "your-datadog-app-key"  # optional
  site: "datadoghq.com"
  metric_prefix: "litterrobot"

collector:
  poll_interval_seconds: 120
  include_pets: true
  emit_events: true
```

## Usage

```bash
# Run continuously (default)
datacat

# Run with config file
datacat -c config.yaml

# Run once and exit
datacat --once

# Dry run (log metrics instead of submitting)
datacat --dry-run

# Verbose logging
datacat -v
```
