Report Bobcat Status to Google Sheets

Why?

I recently relocated my miner from my root into the attic. Bobcat recommends operating temperature be below 60C. I just wanted to make sure the temp did not exceed that.

Requirements

  • Python 3.9.*
  • Bobcat Miner
  • Google Sheets API Service Account

Setup Environment

  • Install Requirements pip install -r requirements.txt

Arguments

Usage: report_miner_status.py [OPTIONS] MINER_IP_ADDRESS
                              GOOGLE_SHEETS_CREDENTIALS_FILE_PATH
                              GOOGLE_SHEET_ID

Arguments:
  MINER_IP_ADDRESS                [required]
  GOOGLE_SHEETS_CREDENTIALS_FILE_PATH
                                  [required]
  GOOGLE_SHEET_ID                 [required]

Options:
  --worksheet-id INTEGER
  --clear-worksheet / --no-clear-worksheet
                                  [default: False]
  --timezone TEXT
  --help                          Show this message and exit.

Find your timezone string by searching for it here If no timezone is passed UTC is the default.

Usage

python report_miner_status.py 192.168.50.155 ./.credentials/bobcat-miner-service-account.json BobcatMinerReport

I would set this up as a cronjob and run it every minute.
