Set the details for your gas/electricity meter — set_meter

Set the details for your gas/electricity meter. These will be stored as environment variables. You should add:

OCTOPUSR_MPAN = <electric MPAN> (or OCTOPUSR_MPAN_IMPORT/OCTOPUSR_MPAN_EXPORT)
OCTOPUSR_MPRN = <gas MPRN>
OCTOPUSR_ELEC_SERIAL_NUM = <electric serial number> (or OCTOPUSR_ELEC_SERIAL_NUM_IMPORT/OCTOPUSR_ELEC_SERIAL_NUM_EXPORT)
OCTOPUSR_GAS_SERIAL_NUM = <gas serial number> to your .Renviron otherwise you will have to call this function every session. You can find your meter details (MPAN/MPRN and serial number(s)) on the developer dashboard.

Usage

set_meter_details(
  meter_type = c("electricity", "gas"),
  mpan_mprn = NULL,
  serial_number = NULL,
  direction = NULL
)

meter_type: Type of meter-point, electricity or gas
mpan_mprn: The electricity meter-point's MPAN or gas meter-point’s MPRN.
serial_number: The meter's serial number.
direction: For electricity meters, specify "import", "export", or NULL (default). When NULL, uses the legacy single MPAN storage. When specified, stores separate import/export MPANs.

No return value, called for side effects.
