Add an interval timing loop for all the grpc scripts that did not already have one. Organized some of the code into functions in order to facilitate this, which caused some problems with local variables vs global ones, so moved the script code into a proper main() function. Which didn't really solve the access to globals issue, so also moved the mutable state into a class instance.
The interval timer should be relatively robust against time drift due to the loop function running time and/or OS scheduler delay, but is far from perfect.
Retry logic is now in place for both InfluxDB scripts. Retry for dishStatusInflux.py is slightly changed in that a failed write to InfluxDB server will be retried on every interval, rather than waiting for another batch full of data points to write, but this only happens once there is at least a full batch (currently 6) of data points pending. This new behavior matches how the autocommit functionality on SeriesHelper works.
Changed the default behavior of dishStatusInflux.py to not loop, in order to match the other scripts. To get the old behavior, add a '-t 30' option to the command line.
Closes#9
SSL/TLS support for InfluxDB and MQTT scripts
Copy the command line option handling into the status scripts to facilitate this. Also copy the setting from env from dishStatusInflux_cron.py.
Better error handling for failures while writing to the data backend. Error printing verbosity is now a bit inconsistent, but I'll address that separately.
Still to be done is dishStatusInflux_cron.py, pending a decision on what to do with that script, given that dishStatusInflux.py can now be run in one-shot mode.
This is related to issue #2.
Unlike the status info scripts, these include support for setting host and database parameters via command line options. Still to be added is support for HTTPS/SSL.
Add a get_id function to the grpc parser module, so it can be used for tagging purposes.
Minor cleanups in some of the other scripts to make them consistent with the newly added scripts.
Initial support for dumping status info in CSV format or to InfuxDB or MQTT servers.
InfluxDB script is largely what Equinox- posted into issue #2, but with a few things renamed, and the state info being recorded as a string of the enum value name, rather than the (integer) enum value.
All of these need header comments still and some need a bit more options handling, cleanup, and error handling.
