Awesome tutorial on MQTT Node Red
-
Guys,
How are you getting your data into the influxdb and grafana? Are you using Node Red, Domoticz plug-ins, or some other method? -
on my side, I'm injecting data from node-red to influxdb, grafana is connected to influxdb. my controller is also on the same rpi (v3, with ssd). I'm planning to add some grafana graph to my controller dashboard (because I prefer my controller for dashboards).

Why? Also, which controller are you using?

with nodered, you can also do some UI with nodered-contrib-ui. and use grafana for graphing for example. Some people do that. without any additional controller like domoticz. for simplicity I think, nodered as standalone controller.I'm using Jeedom. It's french opensource sw. There is multilanguage but not sure if it's very complete unfortunately.. never tried to change the language.
It provides a nice and easy way to design custom designs for nice UI, without code, else it's not very hard to add some piece of html/css too .
If I wanted to do the same, with nodered as standalone controller and some external package for ui, or from scratch, I would have to reinvent the wheel to get the same UI (no time).
Of course I'm not using an additional controller just for that, but also for plugins :) (again no wheel to reinvent)I should have said UI instead of dashboard. what I meant is I just want to have access to everything from one place (UI) and not struggle between urls.
note: you'll need linux socat command. for serial->nodered->domoticz
there is a link in the forum, in nodered section I think -
If you have ethernet or mqtt gateway it is easier to connect more controllers at the same time :-)

Yeah, I'm assuming that if each gateway is connected to the same MQTT broker, and the same with each controller (if there's more than one, that is), then you can mix and match however you want. In theory anyway. I haven't done it yet, so maybe there are gotcha's along the way.

Now that @nca78 has brought it up, has anyone here looked into somehow integrating TensorFlow, or something like it, into their home automation? Other than replicating the Nest thermostat, what else might it do that would be useful?
