emeter output is not usable

[gck303]

I have tried to use the emeter output, but it has a couple of issues:

• it is surrounded by <>
• all the different parameters are within a single payload

I have edited the code to remove the <> send multiple messages. Can this be incorporated in the standard code?

`async def handle_emeter_event_kasa(
kasa_emeter: KasaEmeterEvent, run_state: RunState, mqtt_send_q: asyncio.Queue
):
kasa = run_state.kasas.get(kasa_emeter.name)
if not kasa:
logger.warning(
f"Unable to find device with name {kasa_emeter.name}. Ignoring kasa emeter event"
)
return
topic = f"{kasa.topic}/emeter"
payload = kasa_emeter.emeter_status
payload = payload.replace('<', '')
payload = payload.replace('>', '')
logger.info(
f"Kasa emeter event requesting mqtt for {kasa_emeter.name} to publish"
f" {topic} as {payload}"
)
await mqtt_send_q.put(MqttMsgEvent(topic=topic, payload=payload))

myList = payload.split()
print(myList)

for item in myList:
    print( item )
    topic = f"{kasa.topic}/emeter/" + item.split('=')[0]
    print( 'topic =' + topic)
    payload =  item.partition("=")[2]
    await mqtt_send_q.put(MqttMsgEvent(topic=topic, payload=payload))

Of course, @gck303 ! Do you want to make a pull request? Otherwise, I will make these changes for you in the near future.

Pushing changes soon. :)
