Liking the BoomTable plugin
Needed a bit more granularity on the battery report so I did it like this instead.
I feel like I'm missing something obvious.. I've got this working great with Smartthings and one of my particle phontons, but with nearly identical setups between Smartthings and Hubitat (with the obvious differences like the database), I'm getting this in my logs:
postToInfluxDB(): Something went wrong when posting: groovyx.net.http.HttpResponseException: Unauthorized
I've triple checked username/password but obviously I missed something...
Any ideas?
(Love the battery level meter btw - def plan on making use of that)
Nice! can you share your setup?
thanks
Sure.
The top section (crossed out) is for another non battery device and is not relevant
The pattern below is what transforms the data into the image into the layout in my previous post. The transform values are cut off, so here is the entire field
_fa-square,red,1_ _fa-square,gray,9_ _value_|_fa-square,red,2_ _fa-square,gray,8_ _value_|_fa-square,red,3_ _fa-square,gray,7_ _value_|_fa-square,red,4_ _fa-square,gray,6_ _value_|_fa-square,orange,5_ _fa-square,gray,5_ _value_|_fa-square,orange,6_ _fa-square,gray,4_ _value_|_fa-square,yellow,7_ _fa-square,gray,3_ _value_|_fa-square,green,8_ _fa-square,gray,2_ _value_|_fa-square,green,9_ _fa-square,gray,1_ _value_|_fa-square,green,10_ _fa-square,gray,0_ _value_

awesome! thanks
I'm a new user and I would really like to add some logging capabilities and I like what I am seeing here, but I also see on the forum that some have been having issues with their setup causing issues with the hub.
This is what I am talking about: InfluxDB Issue
Is it advisable to install this on the hub or is it just going to bring it down ?
That’s a really good question. I have two HE hubs, both running InfluxDB. I have had the production hub lock up twice over aboutnthe last 12 weeks. The development hub has never locked up, but the overall workload on that one is minimal compared to the other one. Is the cause InfluxDB? Maybe... I really don’t know for sure.
Just curious, did you come from any other platform? I more or less came from SmartThings but I tried Home Assistant in between. I actually never stopped maintaining my Home Assistant installation, even after all my devices and logic were moved to Hubitat, because they provide short-term (about the last day) device-history graphs by default, which is more or less enough for my purposes. I'm integrating them using the community-created MQTT Bridge apps (the Hubitat app and a literal bridge app running on the same server, along with the MQTT broker, though Home Assistant is also supposed to have one built-in).
I haven't noticed any problems with this setup and don't know that anyone else has either, but I'm only "subscribed" to the specific devices and capabilities that I want. In general, it's best to subscribe to the fewest number of events with the fewest apps possible (not necessarily total apps, just how many apps subscribe to the same events and all events total) ... or at least it was on a similar platform, but I haven't heard any contradicting advice here. 
While there may be other problems people are experiencing, I wouldn't be surprised if some problems were due to people's tendency to check all devices in every app that allows you to monitor/subscribe to things like this (Abacus, MQTT bridge, InfluxDB, possibly even webCoRE though there are additional problems there too).
Yes, I come from Vera. I was actually contemplating Home Assistant, installed it, but decided I just wanted to switch to a new system and not be burdened with the constant tinkering that I foresaw with HASS.
I am not thinking about logging all values, but I like the idea of it though, especially as I like the slick view of Grafana and I like the battery boomtable shown above. But my basic needs are just to log temperatures inside vs. the outside and wind direction. This will help me understand why my heaters may be going off more than expected, especially in some rooms over others.
As for logging on Vera, there is very little built-in, but I had a very basic LUA script that uploaded my temp values to thingspeak.com via their rest API. In theory, this is enough for me and even if some data points are missed due to outages, it would be good enough. I would however like to have some nicer graphs than Thingspeak provided.
Using Cloud services is ok as it means less administrative overhead to deal with. I also see mentions about the approach of writing into a db may be causing issues. Perhaps we could use rest APIs instead ?
I see above that @ejlorson may provide something akin to what I am looking for, but not sure if/when this will be available. I also see Initialstate mentioned and that could work as well for me.
This is what I used on Vera:
-- Temperature
local IN_STOFA = luup.variable_get("urn:upnp-org:serviceId:TemperatureSensor1", "CurrentTemperature", 59)
local OUT_SOUTH = luup.variable_get("urn:upnp-org:serviceId:TemperatureSensor1", "CurrentTemperature", 323)
local IN_BARNA = luup.variable_get("urn:upnp-org:serviceId:TemperatureSensor1", "CurrentTemperature", 407)
local IN_BADH = luup.variable_get("urn:upnp-org:serviceId:TemperatureSensor1", "CurrentTemperature", 409)
local IN_HJONA = luup.variable_get("urn:upnp-org:serviceId:TemperatureSensor1", "CurrentTemperature", 408)
-- Send data to channel 1
local http = require("socket.http")
http.TIMEOUT = 5
local result, status = http.request("http://api.thingspeak.com/update?key={obscured}&field1="..IN_STOFA.."&field2="..OUT_SOUTH.."&field3="..IN_BARNA.."&field4="..IN_BADH.."&field5="..IN_HJONA.."", "run=run")
As you can see, it is pretty basic, but that was mainly because battery values in Vera were never correct and I had a myriad of other issues so I was not that excited on building upon a broken system.
Although I have the "code" above, I wouldn´t know where to start on how to implement it into Hubitat and as mentioned above, I would like some thing that looks a bit nicer.
One area where Vera was particularly bad was that the hub (Vera Edge) was underpowered. When coming to Hubitat I didn't even think about this, but then I see that perhaps that may be a tad underpowered too ? At least if you want to do any "heavy" work on it ? Do we have any specs about the Hubitat hardware and/or the load on CPU / Memory ?
EDIT: Actually, I also had DataYours installed. It looked nice, but very problematic on my Vera and the data got corrupted on the USB stick.
Do you guys have a recommendation on how I can start some data logging ?
I could potentially go with the InfluxDB / Grafana setup, but it seems that is not stable and I would rather not bring my hub down due to logging.
I am fine with logging to the cloud, if the internet goes down then this is not the end of the world. But, I cannot seem to find any way to establish some logging.
I would also be interested in an app approach that could log to a USB stick (or hdd). I assume I could just use a USB hub (both USBs are in use for Z-Wave and Zigbee.

@joshua - I have made a tweak to the InfluxDB Logger App that I'd like you to help review/test. The only thing I changed was to use an Asynchronous Http Post call to send data to InfluxDB instead of a synchronous call. I am hoping that this will eliminate an issue I sometime see with HE hub performance. It seems to be working fine in my testing, but I just made this change this morning. I was hoping you could take a look and let me know if you think this new version should replace the one in the GitHub repository.

Hmmm. I've had just the one unexplained piece of hub behaviour since I stuck the old version of the logger on. No real reason to believe the logger caused it, but async trumps sync for this kind of application anyway... so I've stuck your version on to see if that stops any other oddness.
Cheers!

@joshua - My new version has been running well for about a week with no obvious issues. I have therefore updated the code in the community GitHub repository. I thought it best for users to have easy access to the latest and greatest version.
This has been working for me over the same period without issue as well.

How many devices do you guys have enabled? I just tried this again today and my zigbee radio went offline. Could be incidentally but it happened shortly after adding lots of devices to Influxdb app.
Maybe consider adding a switch to disable the app to quickly troubleshoot if the app is causing problem without having to uninstall/reinstall everytime.
I've got in the region of 150 datapoints heading to it. I've had the hub lock up a couple of times, but not frequently, and I've no way of knowing if the logger is related.

You can disable any app in HE from the App page (click the gear icon in upper right)... They added that in 2.0.3 or 2.0.4.

crap.. forgot about that .. thanks..
I have about 20 devices reporting data to InfluxDB from my Prod hub, and another 20 on my Dev hub.. I am trying to only send the data I truly want to visualize. I have 2 Hubitat hubs, both running the InfluxDB Logger App. Both are sending data to the same InfluxDB database. I haven't had any issues since deploying the async version, but it is really too early to tell if InfluxDB is even the cause of my very infrequent Hub lockups.
