Node.js application to read the P1 data and send it to an InfluxDB database

P1-to-InfluxDB

Simple Node.js application to read the P1 Smart Meter data and send it to an InfluxDB server. This application can be used as an example on how to p1-reader NPM package

Usage

Simply fill in all values of the config.json file and you should be good to go. By default it stores only the Electricity "Received" values for Tariff 1 + 2 and the Gas readings but if you want more you can easily extend the script.

Have a look at https://github.com/ruudverheijden/node-p1-reader to view all values that can be retrieved from the P1 Smart Meter.

p1-to-influxdb's Issues

Code seems to be broken

Hi,

Are you sure this project still works?
I'm getting 2 downright errors.

First one:

p1Reader.on('connected', portConfig => {
    console.log('Connection with the Smart Meter has been established on port: ' + portConfig.port
        + ' (BaudRate: ' + portConfig.baudRate + ', Parity: ' + portConfig.parity + ', Databits: '
        + portConfig.dataBits + 'Stopbits: ' + portConfig.stopBits + ')');
});

Here the portConfig seems to be an empty object for me.
I'm guessing all portConfig names need to change to config.p1Reader?

Second one:

    for (let i = 0; i < dataPoints.length; i++) {
        influxPoints.push({
            measurement: influxMeasurement,
            tags: {},
            fields: { 
                electricity_tarrif1: dataPoints[i].electricity_tarrif1,
                electricity_tarrif2: dataPoints[i].electricity_tarrif2,
                electricity_actual: dataPoints[i].electricity_actual,
                gas_reading: dataPoints[i].gas_reading
            },
            timestamp: new Date(dataPoints[i].timestamp)
        });
    }

influxMeasurement does not exist. I traced it back, you probably want to have config.influxDb.measurementName there.

Could you take a good look at the code again and breath some life into it?
I'd love to use it :)

Cheers,
Mark
