chrishrb/solarlog-exporter repository overview

⁠SolarLog Exporter to InfluxDB

Link to Repository: https://github.com/chrishrb/solarlog-exporter⁠

This repository contains an exporter for SolarLog Monitoring Systems. The Script does the following operations:

1. Get data from LOCAL
2. Parse Config file
3. Parse min/daily files
4. Add datapoints to influxDB

After that you can create fancy dashboards for grafana and monitor your PV-System. (my simple dashboard is in this repository under docs/grafana.json)

⁠Instructions:

1. Set Environment variables (more options under solarlog_exporter/settings.py:

   # SOLAR-LOG
   SOLAR_LOG_SYSTEM="PV-System"
   
   # INFLUXDB
   INFLUXDB_HOST=influxdb
   INFLUXDB_DB=solarlog
   

   Copy
2. Start Docker containers: docker-compose up -d
3. Run Grafana, add influxdb as a new datasource and import the dashboard under docs/grafana.json

⁠Todo:

• secure influxdb with password
• add target value
• add actual value in percent

⁠Important:

Use with caution! If you find any issues or improvements feel free to add pull requests or an issue!
