Home Assistant sensors

[Pi3tia]

Hi, How to configure Home Assistant to read data from easun. Everything seems fine on the notebook and the console output is ok. I ran "npm run-script gen-ha-config" and I copied the template to device with HA, but I need the currentdata.json file in the config.

Sorry if this is a stupid question.

Thank you from the mountain.

Hi,currentdata.json is updated at every script run(scheduled in crontab) I prefer putting a symlink pointing to the json to  the HA base directory (where the main HA config file is located)  On my docker based install this directory is located under /optTom-------- Eredeti levél --------Feladó: Piotr Piecuch @.>Dátum: 2023 november 4 17:02:24Tárgy: [suletom/EASUN-ISOLAR-SMX-II-CONTROL] Home Assistant sensors (Issue #8)Címzett: suletom/EASUN-ISOLAR-SMX-II-CONTROL @.>Hi, How to configure Home Assistant to read data from easun.

Hi, can you please create more comprehensive description how to get data to HA? I can run the script, but currentdata.json are empty. Thank you, great work.

First of all thank you for your efforts and great work. I managed obtain data from the data logger using npm start get-smx-param [datalogger ip address] 104 command:

I also created the templates I want to use in HA, could you please explain which script I should run periodically to write this data into json file. 'currentdata.json' in my directory is empty.

My former setup were the following crontab entries. The first should create currentdata.json at a successful run. The second needed for me to copy the file to the mount directory where docker hosted HomeAssistant was available in the filesystem:/5 root cd /home/suletom/test/EASUN-ISOLAR-SMX-II-CONTROL && npm start get-smx-param 192.168.1.xxx > /home/suletom/test/icmddate +\%Y\%m\%d\%H\%M\%S.log 2>&1 root cp /home/suletom/test/EASUN-ISOLAR-SMX-II-CONTROL/currentdata.json /opt/currentdata.jsonNow i'm not using HA anymore, beacause in the dev branch the current version has integrated web server with chart and email/telegram notifications support and basic energy management based on weather forecast and lot of other mostly bleeding edge extra features i'm currently testing in production. Now i'm focusing on adding support for dynamic load switching, but not planning a stable release at the near future. If you have some time feel free to try the dev code.-------- Eredeti levél --------Feladó: vmannoor @.>Dátum: 2024 június 29 21:16:59Tárgy: Re: [suletom/EASUN-ISOLAR-SMX-II-CONTROL] Home Assistant sensors (Issue #8)Címzett: suletom/EASUN-ISOLAR-SMX-II-CONTROL @.>First of all thank you for your efforts and great work.

Thanks for the feedback! I found a possible error in the code that was stopping the JSON file from being created. I fixed it, and now everything is working perfectly. Thanks again for all the work you have done to make this thing work —it was driving me nuts for weeks! I couldn’t find any other working solutions for this inverter.
