Collects data from RuuviTag sensors to InfluxDB and other databases.
Supports the RAWv2 format emitted by RuuviTags with 2.x firmware.
Compile and install the ruuvitag-gollector
binary:
git clone https://github.com/niktheblak/ruuvitag-gollector.git
cd ruuvitag-gollector
task build
task install
Then copy the example configuration file configs/example-config.toml
to $HOME/.ruuvitag-gollector/config.toml
or /etc/ruuvitag-gollector/config.toml
if you're installing the collector globally.
and fill your preferred configuration values. For reference of possible configuration
values, run ruuvitag-gollector -h
.
At the very least you need to add the MAC addresses and human-readable names of your
RuuviTags into the config file under the ruuvitags
key:
[ruuvitags]
"CC:CA:7E:52:CC:34" = "Backyard"
"FB:E1:B7:04:95:EE" = "Upstairs"
"E8:E0:C6:0B:B8:C5" = "Downstairs"
If you want to save data to InfluxDB (local or remote), add the following options to your config file:
[expoters.influxdb]
type = "influxdb"
addr = "http://localhost:8086"
bucket = "ruuvitag"
measurement = "ruuvitag"
token = "abc123"
For a complete configuration example, see example config.
The following exporters are supported for sending measurements:
- InfluxDB
- PostgreSQL (and TimescaleDB)
- Webhook, meaning a URL that accepts an HTTP POST request with the measurement as JSON in the request body
- AWS DynamoDB
- AWS SQS
- GCP Pub/Sub
- MQTT
See the command-line help for the arguments needed by each exporter:
ruuvitag-gollector -h
You can specify custom column names for the data fields ruuvitag-gollector sends out to match your database schema. You can also exclude columns whose value you don't need. The default columns and their names are:
[columns]
time = "time"
mac = "mac"
name = "name"
temperature = "temperature"
humidity = "humidity"
pressure = "pressure"
acceleration_x = "acceleration_x"
acceleration_y = "acceleration_y"
acceleration_z = "acceleration_z"
movement_counter = "movement_counter"
measurement_number = "measurement_number"
dew_point = "dew_point"
battery_voltage = "battery_voltage"
tx_power = "tx_power"
Now you can try to run it manually (you typically need to run as root to allow the collector process access to Bluetooth hardware):
sudo ruuvitag-gollector collect
To collect values continuously, run:
sudo ruuvitag-gollector daemon
interval = "0m"
device = "default"
