jacobian on Nostr: How much of a pain is setting up some sort of TSDB (Influx? Grafana?) for my Home ...
How much of a pain is setting up some sort of TSDB (Influx? Grafana?) for my Home Assistant install? Mostly I want better long-term data visualization and analysis of things like temp, water and electricity usage, etc. HA has rudimentary charts, but I’m looking for something better. Metrics-based alerting would be nice too. But I don’t want to spend more than a couple hours AT MOST setting this up. Any pointers?
