I have a Huawei HS8145V fiberoptics router, and I'm currently exploring ways to read the API data from it

Hello,
I'm currently using a Huawei HS8145V fibreoptics router and have set up Domoticz as my primary home automation system. Recently, I decided to explore Home Assistant by running an instance of it on Docker.
To my surprise, Home Assistant automatically discovered the Huawei router as an upnp/igd device and started receiving interesting data from it, such as the number of connected clients and the amount of data sent and received. This discovery occurred without any additional installations or configurations on my part. It seems that there might be an API that the router sends to Home Assistant to provide this information. However, I only did this for experimentation and haven't delved further into Home Assistant since I prefer using Domoticz.
Now, my question is whether there is a way to receive similar data from the Huawei router within Domoticz. I've searched through GitHub and found some JavaScript code that reads the API from Huawei LTE routers, but it doesn't seem to work in my specific case. I'm wondering if there's already a Domoticz plugin or integration available that can accomplish this.
Thank you for your time.
