MySensors Network at a High School Farm
-
Wow! What a great project. It's on the top of my list now. Thanks!!

@bpair Your setup is comparable to the one I'm running at home. I only have MQTT inbetween the MySensors network and Node-RED, and only one Node-RED instance which directly posts to InfluxDB, running locally.
Especially Grafana is simply awesome and has been the only graphing tool capable of serving all my needs.
Thanks for sharing! -

Thanks for sharing!@Yveaux Yeah Grafana has been great. I would have something similar to your setup but the greenhouse only has a cell phone hotspot so I wanted to get the data out to the cloud with as little traffic as possible. Then display all the graphs from there (grafana on Amazon)

@Yveaux what controller do you use?
I currently have domoticz and I'm wondering about getting it somehow to system. -

@bpair What gateway-sketch (standard serial?) do you use with which version of mysensors?My setup is quite similar (influx, node-red, grafana) but no cloud deployment. Most sensors are based on mysensors, but there are others (homematic with homegear and netatmo).

@bpair it seems overkill to also store the data and run Grafana locally, but I can imagine this works for you.
@Yveaux The install in the greenhouse is basically because the internet connection is costly and not reliable. I have an old linux computer in teh greenhouse for the following reasons:
- To save the date even if there is no internet
- To display a nice dashboard on the computer in the greenhouse (looks impressive)
- To allow students to look at the graphs locally without internet

@FotoFieber Just the standard serial gateway. There is a nice node-red node for parsing mysensors serial data. I then have some basic code that recognizes the specific data, e.g. node 9 child 10 is the aquaponics water temperature, so that I can store more information in influxd to mak ethe graphs better.
I also have node-red respond to the metric/imperial question. That is basically it.
