Are folks here happy with Domoticz?

[sincze]

@rmtucker I move the data directly from Domoticz into influxDB. This is as accurate as you will get it ;-) Data for example of my smartmeter every 10 seconds. If the device is updated in Domoticz (energy sensor for example) this will add data to influxDB and you will get the bet graphs. Accurate for me.

Hello guys,
I am a beginner with Domoticz. I would like to ask you a question. Can i find a way to recover the data from a sensor like temperature or smartmeter to be installed in local?
I am working with Rasperbery +domoticz + Smartplug Fibaro.
Firstly, i install domoticz in raspberry and i configure the plug fibaro to communicate with a usb Zwave. And it works. i can see the graph but I do not succed to retrieve the data locally into the raspberry.
Someone has a solution to propose me?
Thanks guys

@kany are you referring to save data to something like influxdb?

[kany]

@gohan yeah!! Possible.My goal is to use machine learning with the data i collect.
So if you give me link where the explain how it's working influxdb it Will be good
Thnnk@gohan for your reply

[wergeld]

@kany Well, the data is in a SQLite database for domoticz already. You can move to InfluxDB easily. See this post on the Domoticz forum - this is how I set it up using these instructions.
My qualms with InfluxDB is that deleting a value is nearly impossible.

@NeverDie

I use node-red with domoticz, MySensor data hits node-red first (serial gateway) which then pipes the data to domoticz via a fake serial port. That way I can manipulate data that I send to domoticz, and can inject fake mysensor sensors into domoticz as well..

Node-red also dumps all data to influxdb for data storage, and then I use grafana for graphing purposes. Besides that I have created my own dashboard for tablets.

Currently I mostly use domoticz as scripting engine (lua), for some basic events. For example turning on TV if someone starts streaming to my chromecast, and automatically turn it off again if chromecast have been in idle state for 2 minutes (the same for my chromecast audio, that just turn on amplifier instead of TV).

[wergeld]

@tbowmo Do you have a link to your node-red setup? I would like to filter the output of my sensor nodes as well (got a flaky one that sends -47.5 F temp every once in a while.

Found your github!
For others looking it is here.

[gohan]

@tbowmo would that work also for ethernet/mqtt gateway?

@wergeld

the module is available through NPM as well.. So npm install node-red-contrib-mysensors :)

The basic node-red mysensors is pasted below, my setup is starting to be quite extensive, with reporting to slack channels, creating a websocket for my custom dashboard etc. But isn't necessary for the basic domoticz/nodered

For connecting node-red/domoticz together I use socat to create a virtual serial port:

socat PTY,link=/dev/ttyS81,mode=666,group=dialout,raw PTY,link=/dev/ttyUSB21,mode=666,group=dialout,raw &

@gohan

In theory it should work, as you can set node-red up to receive MQTT messages, which could then be manipulated, and send off to domoticz (if needed).

I think that @Anticimex made some experiments with mqtt/ethernet gateways using node-red. But can't remember details..

[Anticimex]

@tbowmo @gohan I made some experiments using ethernet gw (not MQTT) but gave it up because I could not get node-red to communicate with the GW on the same port for rx/tx.
I switched to a serial gw and that works just fine.

[tbowmo]

@wergeld

Btw. with the setup mentioned above, I have made a basic mysensors router in node-red, I can have two mysensors gateways attached to node-red (nRF24, and RFM69). I then keep track of which gateway I hear which node on, and use that to send commands through the right gateway, when domoticz want to turn on an actuator.

Domoticz only knows of one gateway. It just sees a bunch of nodes reporting data :)

[gohan]

@Anticimex don't you think MQTT is better suited for this task? I am still quite new to node-red and haven't tikered with it much as learning javascript is low on the priority list :D

[wergeld]

@tbowmo I feel I have a lot of reading to do...
Setting up my own custom dashboard has been on my todo list forever (I have the shell made and used the Domoticz API to pull in data but am not really satisfied at all with Domo's APIs). InfluxDB is neat but so, so, limited in my opinion (I do SQL Server big data analytics in the real world).

[Bogus Exception]

@NeverDie I tried for days. Too buggy, and not enough support. I landed with MyController, which takes advantage of MySensors, plus allows a lot of scripting, etc.

</$0.02>

[Anticimex]

@gohan which task? I have never used MQTT and I have not felt a need to use it so far.

[gohan]

@Anticimex I'm referring to the task of communicating between 2 or more platforms/devices: it was built for that. If I knew how to do it, I'd try to make it myself 😅

[Anticimex]

@gohan ok, well I use node-red. It works for me, and I can easily hook in anything imaginable (including MQTT things) while also having the ability to easily inspect and manipulate the data as it flows through the grid. Perhaps MQTT offer that by itself. I don't know.

[tbowmo]

with node-red as middleware you can in theory filter nodes out that you won't let domoticz handle..

Or run both domoticz and pidome (or another controller) in parallel, for example if you want to switch controller for some reason, then move things slowly over to the new platform. I have done this a couple of times, when I wanted to check out a new controller..

MQTT could probably be used, as it can have multiple clients listen to the same data. I just want to get in between the mysensors network, and everything else, so I can manipulate data as I see fit. And that is possible with node-red. You don't need javascript knowledge for basic stuff.. As it's a graphical click and draw thing, and quite intuitive imho.

[ronnyandre]

@wergeld said in Are folks here happy with Domoticz?:

Event scripting (lua? really?) needs more advanced features.

You should check out dzVents which makes LUA-scripting much more powerful and even simpler.
