ecobee_influxdb

A script to pull data from the Ecobee API and write to influxDB 2.x. useful for making visualizations with Grafana, etc.

Setup

• Start by visting https://www.ecobee.com/home/developer/api/examples/ex1.shtml
• Follow the instructions to generate an API key, authorize the app with a PIN, and finally get a "refresh code"
• The refresh code needs to be written as a single line to the file ~/.ecobee_refresh_token
• Create a config file named .ecobee_influx_config.json:

{
  "ecobee_api_key": "<copy this from your ecobee developer section>",
  "influxdb_server": "http://192.168.1.4:8086",
  "influxdb_bucket": "YourBucketName",
  "influxdb_org": "YourOrgName",
  "influxdb_token": "YourInfluxToken"
}

Docker

If you want to run this in docker, instead of putting those config files in your home directory, you can place them in a directory named state and then run build-and-start.sh.
