Quickstart

Steps:

• edit .env file and set DATA_DIR if required
• configure logger as described in this howto from section 2 https://github.com/budulinek/easy-loxone-influx/blob/master/1.UDP%20logger.md
• run ./rebuild.sh
• run ./run.sh and watch for messages like influxdb_1 | [httpd] 172.18.0.4 - - [17/Apr/2024:11:38:50 +0000] "POST /write?db=loxone HTTP/1.1 " 204 0 "-" "python-requests/2.31.0" 0fd08ad9-fcaf-11ee-8002-0242ac120002 1547
• if there are no errors, stop CTRL+C then run on background ./run.sh -d
• open browser and go to http://THIS_PC:3000, configure new influxdb datasource as:
  • name: influx-loxone
  • default: yes
  • type: InfluxDB
  • url: http://influxdb:8086
  • no authentication
  • database: loxone
  • no user password
  • save and test

7. Grafana is ready, go ahead and create some graphs.

Legacy versions of loxone (7, 8):

1. Create a dedicated user in loxone, assign permissions. Check in loxone web interface that new user see all controls you want to store into influx/grafana.
2. Edit node-lox-mqtt-gateway/config.json and set loxone address, username and password in "miniserver" section.
3. Execute ./rebuild.sh.
4. If ok, execute ./run.sh. If everything works fine, you should see some messages from loxone in loxone2influx image (Stored ..., Skipped ...).
5. Stop by CTRL+C then start by ./start.sh.
6. Go to http://localhost:3000, admin:admin, configure new influxdb datasource as:
   • name: influx-loxone
   • default: yes
   • type: InfluxDB
   • url: http://influxdb:8086
   • no authentication
   • database: loxone
   • no user password
   • save and test
7. Grafana is ready, go ahead and create some graphs.
