There’s only one sample on entering MultiPlot. WHere is the dataseries read?
Hmm, try adding
samples: 100
to the widget definition.
yep, that did it 
FYI before adding samples: 100 I traced back to the data fetch in InfluxDB_Data and all 50 records are returned, so it loses them after that. I wondered if it was because I don’t have many samples yet, I only created everything mid-morning.
Thanks for your quick support, and even more for the widget

Glad you got it working, but this means that there is a bug in the downsample section since you should not need to specify “samples”. I’ll make “samples” a mandatory argument in the docs until I have corrected the bug.
I guess the home assistant version has the same problem. There is also a dev version available that can read data both from the home assistant db and from influx. https://github.com/tjntomas/Dev-Graph-Widget
I found that as long as I include sample: , even with a value of 1, it works.
Final quick question: how do I control the x-axis legend - I’m getting too many labels and they are all full date & time. I couldn’t find that in the docs yet.
I’ll have to look in the plot.ly docs and see what options exists for the x-axis legend. I think the x-axis will look better when you have more data though and this might be the reason why I haven’t noticed this.
And this solves the issue of fixing the code. I will just set samples to 1 if not specified.
I’ll leave it running for a couple of days and see how things change.
I played around with the time zone and locale settings here:
self.TIME_ZONE = Settings(self, ‘time_zone’,‘Europe/Stockholm’)
self.LOCALE = Settings(self, ‘locale’,‘sv’)
The ‘default’ Swedish settings result in a nice display - date & time at the first point then 00:00, and time HH:MM at 06:00, 12:00, 18:00. If I try any other settings I get full date + time ‘dd-mm-yyy hh:mm:ss’ every 2 hours. I can live with Swedish for this 
deleted, wrong post, sorry
Ok, That should be easy to fix, I’ll have a look at it.
Ok, it looks like the plotly library ignores timezones, see here https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/issues/1532
A workaround seems to be to keep “sv” as locale and use for instance “Europe/London” (-1 h from Stockholm) or “Europe/Athens” ( +1 h from Stockholm) as timezone. This gives the correct time when I try it out.
You can also define the locale and timezone in the widget definition instead of changing the code:
time_zone: Europe/London
locale: sv
Yes, that works, thanks again
Hi tjntomas
Is there any plans on getting the HTTPS SSL working? Ran into another widget I am trying to play with but it requires HADashboard to be setup with SSL but this breaks your nice graphs.
I now have HADasboard setup with SSL and the graph widget works fine. Can you post your appdaemon.yaml perhaps?
Here is my appdaemon.yaml config minus the token
secrets: /config/secrets.yaml
log:
logfile: STDOUT
errorfile: STDERR
appdaemon:
threads: 20
app_dir: /config/appdaemon/apps
plugins:
HASS:
type: hass
ha_url: http://hassio/homeassistant
token: XXX
hadashboard:
dash_url: https://127.0.0.1:5050
dash_dir: /config/appdaemon/dashboards
dash_ssl_certificate: /ssl/fullchain.pem
dash_ssl_key: /ssl/privkey.pem
Here is the error i am getting in the debug for Chrome.

Ok, you need to expose the influxdb also over SSL and pass the inluxdb url as https://. As far as I know, there is no other work-around like changing the code etc. Are you using nginx for SSL? If so, it should be easy.
