And there you have it.
Data is being persisted in an InfluxDB TimeSeries database and the data is rendered on the Grafana dashboard.
For this to be possible, I had to:
-
Strip the “Client ID” from the message, since its presence would result in an incorrect JSON structure
-
All the values in the customomclientraw file are entered in double quotes. This means that every datatype would be created as strings. I went thru the entire structure of the file and removed the double quotes on those fields that would generate float values (i.e temp, tempTL, tempTH, intemp etc)
-
Brian, I noticed that the 2 values for presstrendval and temptrend should be of type float but they are actually being generated as strings (since values greater than 0 are created with a leading “+” sign). Is this by design?
