Sorry, I forgot to write in English. I have setup an influxDB on docker on my Synology nas. I suppose the query must come from the homey. So I canā€™t use linux influxdb-client. I tried to get info into influxDB v2 before trying Grafana. But I cant see any data in the bucket. ---

To anybody having issue with Influxdb v2 (empty bucket), just follow the Tips from @tlangelaar. I also wrongly interpreted " Organization Profile" vs ā€œuser IDā€. Solved the issue by me. ---

Iā€™m an enthusiast user of Influxdb on Homey, and I would love to be able to report enum capabilities. Iā€™m not sure this app is still maintainedā€¦ Do you think this is doable ? (from a SDK point of view) ---

First I will update the app to SDK3, and will then look at new features like logging to Influxdb and also see if enums are doable. ---

The influxdb app states itā€™s connected. I get no data in my database and the measurements stays at 0 Anyone an idea if I do anything wrong?

Influxdb is running in a docker container. As far as I know there is no firewall on it. Also not on the host OS. ---

The app writes all measurements without any flow. Only flow you need is to set write frequency. I made the mistake of adding https:// in the url field in the app configurator. Take a look in the configurator to see if you have any measurements and if the connection is online. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/b/0/b0223cfbb692fcf5e0e8c2f0e55b5159f1f453c7.jpeg) ---

I am also just playing around with influxDB for a couple of days now, but I think I know what could be the problem. As long as a sensor does noet give an update to Homey, there is no data of the sensor in de InfluxDB . Aquara sensors donā€™t update that often I think. However, I also have a few Aquara sensors and they do apear in the database after a while. ---

Hey @balmli , I have a request for BLL variables to be saved to the InfluxDB. [QlusterIT / nl.qluster-it.BetterLogic / issues / #12 - Be able to save numeric values to InfluxDB ā€” Bitbucket](https://bitbucket.org/QlusterIT/nl.qluster-it.betterlogic/issues/12/be-able-to-save-numeric-values-to-influxdb) [[APP][Pro] Better Logic Library - Just some better logic, variable and library management - Apps - Homey Community Forum](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-better-logic-library-just-some-better-logic-variable-and-library-management/5568/305) When using flows for this, the flow will be killed when it gets executed to many times. The solution for this i have just finished building and am using in the[Device Capabilities App](https://homey.app/nl-nl/app/nl.qluster-it.DeviceCapabilities/Device-Capabilities/). It would be great if you could implement this variable listener in the InfluxDB app šŸ™‚ If so, you would just need to execute these few steps: - run `npm install betterlogiclibrary` - add `"permissions": ["homey:app:net.i-dev.betterlogic"]` to the app.json - import BL in the app.js `const { BL } = require('betterlogiclibrary');` - init the BL in your app.oninit and set the BL.onVariableUpdate ```auto await BL.init({ homey: this.homey }); BL.onVariableUpdate = async ({ variable, formattedDate }) => { if (!variable.remove) return; switch (variable.type) { case "number": case "trigger": writeToInfluxDB('number', variable.value); break; case "string": writeToInfluxDB('string', variable.value); break; case "boolean": writeToInfluxDB('boolean', variable.value); break; } } ``` Thatā€™s it šŸ™‚ Well, ofc you need to really write it to the InfluxDB, but you get the point šŸ˜‰ And perhaps you need a setting if people want to write them, or something like that.
