pi_weatherstation -l debug
Config file
You can copy the example config file from https://github.com/guilhermef/pi_weatherstation/blob/main/examples/config.ini
The field metrics_location_label
will be added as a location label on prometheus.
Then you can run pi_weatherstation -c <path to config.ini>
Long term data storage
This will also start a prometheus metric server that you can use to scrape. You can configure a label name location if you have multiple instances.
Install Prometheus on RaspberryPI
Create a free account on Grafana Cloud
Copy the existing prometheus.yml file to scrape the local pi_weatherstation, and add your remote_write auth on it. https://github.com/guilhermef/pi_weatherstation/blob/main/examples/prometheus.yml
Import the example dashboard on your new Grafana: https://github.com/guilhermef/pi_weatherstation/blob/main/examples/grafana_dashboard.json
Running as a service
If you want, you can use the systemd service unit file as an example
https://github.com/guilhermef/pi_weatherstation/blob/main/examples/pi_weatherstation.service
to /etc/systemd/system/pi_weatherstation.service
then, run:
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable pi_weatherstation.service
sudo systemctl start pi_weatherstation.service
