Feature Request: Network UPS Tools (NUT) Integration

[HomeKidd]

Description

First and foremost, I want to express my gratitude for the outstanding work you've done with Homarr. It has made managing my services so much easier.😄

I would like to suggest a feature that I believe would be a valuable addition to Homarr: integration with Network UPS Tools (NUT), either as a built-in integration or as a widget. NUT is widely used to monitor and manage UPS devices, and having it integrated within Homarr would provide users with a convenient way to monitor their power backups and UPS statuses directly from the dashboard.

Some potential features of this integration could include:

Real-time UPS status monitoring (battery charge, power input/output, etc.)
Alerts for power failures or low battery conditions
Graphical representation of power usage and battery health over time
Ability to manage multiple UPS devices if supported by NUT
This integration would further enhance Homarr's versatility as a central management hub, and I'm sure many users with home labs or small server setups would find it invaluable.

Thank you once again for your continuous efforts in making Homarr better with each update. I’m excited to see how the project evolves and hope that the NUT integration is something you would consider in the future.

Best regards 😄

Hello, UPS's being quite integral to many servers, I think this is a good idea.
I am personally not well versed in those (I should, I know).
Homarr runs on API's, we do not calculate or measure anything ourselves, we only collect data from many services and display them in the same place. If you have a link to a popular project on this that provides an API of any kind, we could take a look at it in the future.
We are currently working on the re-release of homarr and its official V1, meaning we are not focusing on new elements right now, but this could be nice for V1.1 or later.

webNUT should be the best example for the integration. I've also have this added as a tile, but doesn't like the UI of webNUT, also its unnecessary to run an extra service when its could be implemented as part of Homarr :-)

Network UPS Tools also have a built-in upsstats.cgi.html page.

Basically NUT runs the server on the device itself so it can be monitored from the network, all you need is the IP of the NUT server, username/password of the NUT and the UPS's name.

I'm also using NUT within HomeKit via Homebridge plugin so these files also can help with the integration :-)

Edit: Just found this new GitHub repo doing the same thing.....

This isn't a big deal, but I'm sure many people would find it a really helpful feature :-)
