MMM-Chart - View your graphs on your Mirror

[d3r]

That looks really good. I log my sense hat readings to a file on my pi. Would it be possible to use your module to read that data?

[Snille]

@d3r Hi! Thank you. Not directly, but if you build a script (maybe in node or in PHP) that parse the file and present the data in the form of JSON, it is possible.

Hi all! I finally tried out the Chart module on a RPi3 (Jessie Lite install) with the latest MM2. But I can’t get the graphs to show. Is there anyone out there using my module who have it working?
The charts work fine in Chrome or Firefox on another machine… That’s how I developed the module. :)

Hello!
I’m using dht22 modul wich is working fine, and tough will give a try with this module. I used this how-to ( http://www.instructables.com/id/Raspberry-PI-and-DHT22-temperature-and-humidity-lo/ ) to log the temps, and this php script to generate the json: ( http://www.kodingmadesimple.com/2015/01/convert-mysql-to-json-using-php.html )

php
    //open connection to mysql db
    $connection = mysqli_connect("localhost","logger","password","temperatures") or die("Error " . mysqli_error($connection));
  //fetch table rows from mysql db
    $sql = "select * from temperaturedata";
    $result = mysqli_query($connection, $sql) or die("Error in Selecting " . mysqli_error($connection));
 //create an array
    $emparray = array();
    while($row =mysqli_fetch_assoc($result))
    {
        $emparray[] = $row['dateandtime'];
        $emparray[] = $row['temperature'];
        $emparray[] = $row['humidity'];
      }
     echo json_encode($emparray);
//close the db connection
    mysqli_close($connection);

?>

This give me this result:
[“2017-07-06 11:37:59”,“26.3”,“46.9”,“2017-07-06 11:45:02”,“26.3”,“46.1”,“2017-07-06 11:50:01”,“26.4”,“45.7”,… and so on ]

I set the correct url in the config, but I cant get it to work :( Maybe the result is not right?

[Snille]

and the whole “set” also needs to be inside [ ] as well. :)

Here is some of my config… This is one of my graphs.

{
	module: 'MMM-Chart',
	position: 'top_center',
	header: 'Temp & Fukt Ute senaste 24 timmarna',
	config: {
		name: "outside",
		url: "http://10.0.0.20/housedata/housedata.php?id=9,10&max=24&sort=desc",
		graphStyle: "line",
		xaxisLabelTicks: true,
		updateInterval: 600000,
		graphFill0: true,
		graphLabel0: "Temp ute C",
		graphLineColor0: "rgba(200, 200, 200, 1)",
		graphTickColor0: "rgba(200, 200, 200, 1)",
		graphFillColor0: "rgba(200, 200, 200, 0.2)",
		graphFill1: true,
		graphLabel1: "Fukt ute %",
		graphLineColor1: "rgba(100, 100, 155, 1)",
		graphTickColor1: "rgba(100, 100, 155, 1)",
		graphFillColor1: "rgba(100, 100, 155, 0.2)",
		xaxisTimeUnit: "hour",
		xaxisTimeFormatLabels: "HH",
	}
},

And the JSON looks like this:

[["2017-07-07 08:56:00",16.9,85],["2017-07-07 06:58:00",13.4,91.3],["2017-07-07 05:54:00",13.3,90.4],["2017-07-07 05:02:00",13.4,89.2],["2017-07-07 03:58:00",13.6,88.2],["2017-07-07 02:55:00",13.6,90],["2017-07-07 01:50:00",13.5,91.9],["2017-07-07 00:57:00",13.6,92.6],["2017-07-06 23:54:00",13.6,90],["2017-07-06 20:55:00",20.1,67.9],["2017-07-06 19:50:00",27.1,52.3],["2017-07-06 18:57:00",25.5,55.1],["2017-07-06 17:54:00",22.4,58.1],["2017-07-06 17:02:00",22.6,66.3],["2017-07-06 15:59:00",22.1,64.4],["2017-07-06 14:56:00",22,65.7],["2017-07-06 13:49:00",21.1,66],["2017-07-06 12:57:00",19.8,66.9],["2017-07-06 11:54:00",18.7,67.1],["2017-07-06 11:01:00",17.6,75.8],["2017-07-06 09:59:00",16.5,79.7],["2017-07-06 07:50:00",12,95.5],["2017-07-06 06:58:00",10.6,98.2],["2017-07-06 05:54:00",9.4,97.7]]

I think the missing fist (and last) “[” “]” may be the problem. :)

@Snille :) thanks! How do I add them? Can you send me the php script you are using? It will be a big help for me ! Thx

[Snille]

Hi, this is a part of my php pickup/conversion script…
I hope this can help you. :)

// Get all the data from the database.
foreach ($ids as $i => $idnum) {
	//Fetches the data from MYSQL via PDO.
	$values[] = getvalues($dbservername, $dbname, $dbusername, $dbpassword, $deftable, $defsensoridcolumn, $max, $ids[$i], $sort);
}

// Initialize the array.
$outarray = array();

$first = 0;

foreach ($values as $key => $value) {
	$position = 0;
	foreach ($values[$key] as $i => $value) {
		If ($first == 0) {
			$outarray[$position][] = $values[$key][$i]["time"];
		}
		$outarray[$position][] = floatval($values[$key][$i]["value"]);
		$position++;
	}
	$first++;
}

// Make it JSON.
$json = json_encode($outarray);

// Print it.
echo $json;

@Snille Thanks! Will try this ! I will let you know the results :)

[logen563]

Finally it’s working :) Thanks for the help. I use googlespread sheet, csv export, and php to convert it to json. If some somebody interested I can give some help.

Hy it was quite hard to get the dht22 values showing up with your chart.

finally i got the php script working to fetch mysql data to your json format:

//your code here



    //open connection to mysql db
    $connection = mysqli_connect("localhost","logger","password","temperatures") or die("Err$
    //fetch table rows from mysql db
    $sql = "select * from temperaturedata";

        $result = mysqli_query($connection, $sql) or die("Error in Selecting " . mysqli_erro$


        //create an array
        $emparray = array();
        $position=0;
        while($row =mysqli_fetch_assoc($result))
        {
              
                $emparray[$position][] = $row['dateandtime'];
                $emparray[$position][] = $row['temperature'];
                $emparray[$position][] = $row['humidity'];
                $position++;
        }
        echo json_encode($emparray);
        //close the db connection
        mysqli_close($connection);
