Support for smartthings power plugs

I hit up the community recently about finding an easy way to access the API. They keep promising this but it hasn't been delivered yet. Currently there's no way to "pull" the data, but I could write a smart app people could use that pushes it in a way specific to our system. It's another reason I wanted a separate measurement for env values. =)

Had some success today. I simply wrote something that pulls the data necessary from the existing influxdb in a different database using the community influxdb smart things plugin. It will use the "plug ip" field to specify the name to match it to a rig conf line. So far it works well. It's the easiest win for now until ST gives the community an easy way to hit their API directly. I'll stay on top of this, but I do have a working solution.

That sounds great!
