APCZ

[Gerowen]

I'm not a professional or even particularly knowledge-able "developer", just a guy who writes scripts now and then, but I wanted to share something, on the off chance that one of y'all finds this useful.  It's just a Linux bash script, but I wanted something where I could just click a button and get a summary of information from the UPS attached to my homelab server.  I had an Android app that did the job, but I spend more time on my laptop or desktop than my phone and didn't have a comparable option on desktop, so I threw together something real quick where you can just click an icon and have it automatically log into a server with ssh and parse data from apcupsd running on that server.

I've got packaged releases on Sourceforge at: https://sourceforge.net/p/apcz/

OR

If you want to read the script without downloading anything, it's on my Gitlab at: https://gitlab.com/gerowen/apcz

I've also attached a very short demo video to this post.
