InfluxDB and Grafana

Open shannondpasto opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

So I decided to take a look at setting this up. So far so good, solariot is writing data into the InfluxDB, Grafana is configured to access the database and the Sun and Moon plugin is installed. I uploaded your json file but I'm getting N/A for everything. I read on the project page that "The file will require editing to match your InfluxDb settings". Can you please give me an idea as to what needs to be edited? The only difference between your default config and mine is the database name.

Cheers

I've updated the sample dashboard in the repo that solariot.live uses with the latest Grafana version too. The values to look out for are (if they differ from the source):

  • datasource database label. Default is Solariot.
     {
       "name": "DS_SOLARIOT",
       "label": "Solariot",
       "description": "",
       "type": "datasource",
       "pluginId": "influxdb",
       "pluginName": "InfluxDB"
     }
    ],
    
  • measurement name. Default is Sungrow.
  • location value. Default is Gabba.

If anyone has a custom dashboard to share, I am happy to add it to the grafana directory. Possibly even a more generic dashboard sample directory for Prometheus and other types.
