Powerwall - cannot retrieve the mode about teslapy HOT 3 OPEN

Yes facing the same issue here, "default_real_mode" produces error. Would like advice on getting mode.

from teslapy.

While get_battery_data() no longer retrieves "default_real_mode" or "operation" (that always seemed to be the same as "default_real_mode"), I have found from experimenting that getting data from the endpoint api/1/energy_sites/{site_id}/site_info does return "default_real_mode". I don't know if this is new, or if it has always done so as this is not an endpoint I have used.

To access that I added the following method to the Battery class in init.py

def get_site_info(self):
        """ Retrieve current site config information"""
        self.update(self.api('SITE_CONFIG')['response'])
        return self

Powerwall mode is then given by product.get_site_info()["default_real_mode"]

from teslapy.

def get_site_info(self):
""" Retrieve current site config information"""
self.update(self.api('SITE_CONFIG')['response'])
return self

Thanks for this. After some fidding around I got it to work.
