Alternative to Fuel Streams?


#1

Can anyone suggest a simply solution that would allow me to log variable values on a recurring basis? I need to log the temperature reading of a sensor every 30 minutes for a couple of weeks. TIA.

Lots of options.

I suggest you use a smart app in smartthings instead of bring webcore into the mix if you are logging a sensor’s temp and don’t need an actual variable.

I’ve used Initial State which is easy if you don’t need a ton of datapoints. Now I use influx + grafana. FOr your short term needs maybe just Google Sheets.

Also, a few examples and discussion can be found here.

For something happening only 48 times a day, the absolute easiest way would be to just use the “Log to console” command… With logging set to NONE, you can probably capture 3-4 days before the old data scrolls off the bottom. I often copy/paste into a text file for future analysis.
