USE_PROMETHEUS flag #65

Hi,

Please be patient with a newb question. I've seen that Tasmoto firmware has a USE_PROMETHEUS flag. Does this obviate? In other words, this project avoids the necessity to compile Tasmoto with USE_PROMETHEUS, which is a non-default flag, and apply such custom-built Tasmoto firmware to all devices?

Just trying to understand the circumstances to use tasmota-power-exporter.

Many thanks.

Yes that's correct. If it's compiled with that flag I don't think you need to worry about this and can just use Prometheus with it correctly.
