I wanted to see what DSMR reader can tell from my power and gas usage over time, and also to get an insight in the costs. This until I have build a dashboard with the same functionality with Grafana.

But I have no P1 reader other than TOON's meteradapter which data I already read via http for Home Assistant and PVOutput. I could Home Assistant push data to DSMR, but instead to safe time I created a small Python script which I call every 10 seconds.

Install dsmr-docker via docker-compose.yml by adding these lines and running docker-compose up -d

  dsmrdb:
    image: postgres:10.5-alpine
    container_name: dsmrdb
    volumes:
      - dsmrdb:/var/lib/postgresql/data
      - dsmrdb_backups:/dsmr/backups
    restart: always
    labels:
      - com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.enable=true
    environment:
      - POSTGRES_USER=dsmrreader
      - POSTGRES_PASSWORD=dsmrreader
      - POSTGRES_DB=dsmrreader

  dsmr:
    image: xirixiz/dsmr-reader-docker
    container_name: dsmr
    depends_on:
      - dsmrdb
    cap_add:
      - NET_ADMIN
    links:
      - dsmrdb
    restart: always
    labels:
      - com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.enable=true
    environment:
      - DB_HOST=dsmrdb
      - DSMR_USER=admin
      - DSMR_EMAIL=admin@localhost.nl
      - DSMR_PASSWORD=admin
      - VIRTUAL_HOST=localhost

Then browse to <IP>:7777 and enable the API, and copy you AUTH KEY.

Create this script, fill in your IP address for your TOON and DSMR server, and the AUTH KEY you copied.

)

#if response.status_code != 201:
#    print('Error: {}'.format(response.text))
#else:
#    print('Created: {}'.format(json.loads(response.text)))

It may be needed to adapt the dev_x_x entries to yours, just enable the print command and check the output.

Create a cronjob by adding a crontab entry like this:

* * * * * ( sleep 10 ; /usr/bin/python /home/docker/scripts/pushreading.py )

After a few minutes the dashboard should show you your usage

Disable MQTT since I don't use it and to prevent these log entries:
