Collects system and sensor data which is then submitted to a time series database such as InfluxDB, and victoria-metrics.

• python3-influxdb
• python3-psutil

• cpu_sensor:
• fritzbox_sensor: network traffic (bytes sent, bytes received)
• memory_sensor: memory consumption
• weather_sensor: provide temperature and humidity for the provided locations

Required

• SENSORIC_DB_HOST: IP address of the influxdb / victoria metrics host
• SENSORIC_DB_PORT: port of the influxdb / victoria metrics host
• SENSORIC_DB_NAME: name of the time series database
• SENSORIC_BATCH_SIZE: number of batches to collect before sending them to the time series database

Disk sensor

• SENSORIC_DISKS: space separated list of partitions to watch for disk usage

Fritzbox sensor

• SENSORIC_FRITZ_HOST: IP address of the Fritz!Box
• SENSORIC_FRITZ_PORT: port of the Fritz!Box

Weather sensor

• SENSORIC_WEATHER: a space sparated list of locations. Spaces within location names need to be replaced with %20 (e.g., Domat Ems > Domat%20Ems)

Call sensoric-daemon.py with the list of sensors to use as outlined below.

export SENSORIC_DB_HOST=192.168.0.120
export SENSORIC_DB_PORT=8999
export SENSORIC_DB_NAME=sensoric
export SENSORIC_FRITZ_HOST=192.168.0.200
