HI,i am a beginner
developing an air quality monitor project
i have a code for the project but i wan to connect and monitor my reading in grfana by creating dashboard using prometheus data source
so basically i want someone to help me for creating different dashboard in grafana for temp,press,humidity,c02 level using prometheus data source
if yes pls reply
help is really needed since i am just a beginner
to connect to the cloud i am using esp32
bme280,oled display and c02 sensor
If you want to help pls reply
so that i can send you the code/data source i have i have
waiting someone to reply
pls i you want any more details you can ask about it
i have read some tutorial but unable to understand it .
This should be very straightforward. Can I ask why you have chosen to use Prometheus as your datasource (instead of say, InfluxDB or another database)?
Also, is your ESP32 and BME280 connected to a Raspberry Pi, Arduino, or something else? Have you already planned out how you are going to “grab” the temperature, pressure, humidity and CO2 levels using these devices?
The esp 32 is wifi connected so it sends data
Why iam using Prometheus
Because the tutorial i am following in that the code is edited to configured it with prothemus and i am just a beginner so no that pro to edit the whole code on my own so iam following that tutorial for my project
If you want I can share the tutorial
You can find it own YouTube
Thanks for replying
A comment from Michael on the blog says “From my experience, it’s probably easier to go local with InfluxDB and Grafana. InfluxDB have pretty good documentation on installing it on a Raspberry Pi.”
Questions for you:
Do you already have Prometheus set up and storing the metrics? If yes, where is Prometheus installed (e.g. Raspberry Pi?)
If you have not already set up Prometheus, have you considered Influx Cloud and Grafana Cloud? Michael has a detailed blog post on setting that up for nearly the same purpose as above.
The reason I am using Prometheus is because he had provided the project code using prometheus in his GitHub account
I don’t know how can I edit the code to configure it with influxdb
So that’s the reason I am using Prometheus
If you are a programmer pls i request you to edit the code to send the sensor reading in influxdb as he has show in his blog and it is easy than Prometheus
I am just a beginner
Please
If I followed his tutorial will it be easy for me to complete the project
I have added the data source of Prometheus in my code but don’t know how to create different dashboard in grafana using it
I needed to complete the project in amonth so the hardware Part (connectin with sensor and all has been completed)know the only thing left is to visualise the data
Will it be completed in less than one month if i follow your steps
