InverterScout v0.1.0 — First public alpha

First public alpha

InverterScout 0.1.0 is the first public alpha of the secure, self-hosted LuxPower inverter monitor.

Highlights

• Guided Quick Start launchers for local Docker and remote Linux hosts on macOS, Linux, and Windows.
• Read-only monitoring for selected LuxPower SNA inverters.
• Responsive light and dark Web UI for desktop, tablet, and mobile screens.
• Optional private Telegram bot with manual approval for every user.
• Tapo and Tuya smart-device controls and local automation scenarios.
• Encrypted local SQLite storage, credential-safe logs, and no telemetry.
• Ten included interface languages with configurable IANA time zones.
• Automated quality gates across Python 3.12–3.14, Windows launchers, Docker, and CodeQL.

Hardware status

Verified: LuxPower SNA5000 WPV.

SNA3000 WPV, SNA4000 WPV, and SNA6000 WPV are expected to be compatible but have not completed hardware validation. SNA-EU 12000/14000 support is experimental. Native three-phase SNA models are not currently supported.

Start in minutes

Download the source archive below, extract it, and run:

• Linux or macOS: chmod +x start.sh && ./start.sh
• Windows: start.bat

The guided launcher checks Docker, ports, inverter reachability, and service health. See the Quick Start for the complete deployment flow.

Important

Keep the Web UI on a trusted home network. Do not expose its port to the public internet. Use the private Telegram interface or a private VPN for remote access.

Warning

This is alpha software. Independently verify all readings before relying on InverterScout for automation or critical monitoring.

This release contains source code only. The Docker image is built locally by the Quick Start launcher.
