Please see this implementation for a much more complete and feature rich offering: https://github.com/berezhinskiy/ecoflow-mqtt-prometheus-exporter A Simple Ecoflow JSON REST API -> prometheus metrics converter
Disclaimer: This project is in no way connected to Ecoflow the company, and is entirely developed as a fun project (with no guarantees of anything)
Other disclaimer: this has only been tested with a post kickstarter Delta Pro
A very simple implementation of a prometheus exporter for Ecoflow (https://https://www.ecoflow.com/) products that support the EcoFlow IOT backend.
I wanted to monitor and alert (not on a mobile app) on the status of my Delta Pro , and could not find any existing solutions. This project is what I came up with...
The project provides:
- a DEAD simple python program that accepts a number of arguments to collect information about an ecoflow product and then exports the collected information to a prometheus endpoint
- a docker image (https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/brendanobra/ecoflow-prometheus-exporter) for convenience
All metrics produced are prefixed with ecoflow , for instance ecoflow_watts_out
While this was developed to run on premises in a small kubernetes cluster, with the end goal of visualizing the data in grafana, the exporter/docker image are not
dependent on grafana.
- get your unit's serial number (displayed on inside of IOT port cover)
- email [email protected] with the serial number and request IOT REST api access
- Support will respond with an app key and secret key. save them (and don't share with anyone)
- clone this repo (or
docker runthe image). - The program is parameterized via environment variables:
required:
DEVICE_SN - the device serial number
APP_KEY - the app key provided by support
SECRET_KEY - the secret key provided by support
optional:
ARRAY_CAPACITY - (default 1000) the nominal production capacity of the charging source in watts (for example 1000 for a 1000 watt solar array)
POLLING_INTERVAL_SECONDS - (default 30 seconds) the interval to poll the Ecoflow APIs
example of running docker image:
docker run -e DEVICE_SN=<your device SN> -e APP_KEY=<your app key provided by support> -e SECRET_KEY=<your secret key provided by support> -it -p 9090:9090 --network=host brendanobra/ecoflow-prometheus-exporter
will run the image with the exporter running on :9090
