Fritz InfluxDb

Fritz InfluxDb is a tiny daemon written in python to fetch data from a fritz box router and writes it to influxdb. It is equal capable as fritzcollectd and directly writing to influxdb.

Requirements

• python3.6 or newer
• influxdb
• fritzconnection >= 1.3.3

Python 2.7

If you still need to run it with Python 2 check out the the branch python2.7

Setup

• here we assume we install in /opt

Ubuntu 18.04

sudo apt-get install virtualenv python3-lxml
cd /opt
git clone https://github.com/yunity/fritzinfluxdb.git
cd fritzinfluxdb
virtualenv --system-site-packages -p python3 .venv
. .venv/bin/activate
pip3 install -r requirements.txt

RHEL/CentOS 7 with EPEL

yum install git python36-virtualenv python36-lxml
cd /opt
git clone https://github.com/yunity/fritzinfluxdb.git
cd fritzinfluxdb
virtualenv-3 --system-site-packages .venv
. .venv/bin/activate
pip3 install -r requirements.txt

• modify your configuration and test it

./fritzinfluxdb.py

Install as systemd service

Ubuntu

cp /opt/fritzinfluxdb/fritzinfluxdb.service /etc/systemd/system

RHEL/CentOS

sed -e 's/nogroup/nobody/g' /opt/fritzinfluxdb/fritzinfluxdb.service > /etc/systemd/system/fritzinfluxdb.service

systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl start fritzinfluxdb
systemctl enable fritzinfluxdb

Run with Docker

git clone <this_repo_url>
cd fritzinfluxdb
docker build -t fritzinfluxdb .

Copy the config from the example to my-fritzinfluxdb.ini and edit the settings.

Now you should be able to run the image with following command

docker run -d -v /PATH/TO/my-fritzinfluxdb.ini:/app/fritzinfluxdb.ini --name fritzinfluxdb fritzinfluxdb

If you're running the influxdb in a docker on the same host you need to add --link to the run command.

Example:

• starting the influx container

docker run --name=influxdb -d -p 8086:8086 influxdb

• set influxdb host in fritzinfluxdb.ini to influxdb
• run docker container

docker run --link influxdb -d -v /PATH/TO/my-fritzinfluxdb.ini:/app/fritzinfluxdb.ini --name fritzinfluxdb fritzinfluxdb

Upgrading

If you upgrade from a version < 0.3 make sure to perform following steps

• update your virtual env pip3 install -r requirements.txt
• use the updated config and add the credentials and addresses from your old config
