getting started

create an environment file and fill it with the required variables per module by copying the example file:

cp .env.dist .env

ensure an influxdb server is running

docker run -d -p 8086:8086 -v ~/influxdb/data:/var/lib/influxdb/data --restart always --name influxdb influxdb

run rasplogger through docker

docker run -it --rm --name rasplogger -v "$PWD":/usr/src/app -w /usr/src/app --restart always node:13-buster node rasplogger.js once destiny -u http://influxdb:8086/destiny

Commands:
  once <module>              run rasplogger once for a specific module
  cron <module> <frequency>  run rasplogger using cron for a specific module with a specific cron frequency string

  help [command]             display help for command

examples

log destiny data once

node rasplogger.js once parking -u http://localhost:8086/parking

log parking data every second

node rasplogger.js cron parking "* * * * * *" -u http://localhost:8086/parking

log pvdata every 5 minutes

node rasplogger.js cron pv "*/5 * * * *" -u http://localhost:8086/pv

log router data every 30 minutes

node rasplogger.js cron parking "*/30 * * * *" -u http://localhost:8086/parking

start all loggers through cron at the same time (-u is used to specify base influxdb string without databasename)

node rasplogger all -u http://localhost:8086
