Install DSMR reader on hass os

Installation Home Assistant OS

Same error? Did you re-deploy the stack?

22

yeah
and now its under compose/3 instead of compose/1

23

Then the changes in the compose file changes are not reflected by Portainer. Can you remove the stack and start over with the updated compose file?

24

I started from your compose file

25

… and did you change the relative volumes references as mentioned here?

26

Like this

services:
  dsmrdb:
    image: postgres:12-alpine
    restart: always
    volumes:
      - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
      - /home/skank/dsmr/dsmrdb:/var/lib/postgresql/data
    environment:
      - TZ=Europe/Brussels
      - PG_TZ=Europe/Brussels
      - POSTGRES_USER=dsmrreader
      - POSTGRES_PASSWORD=dsmrreader
      - POSTGRES_DB=dsmrreader

  dsmr:
    image: xirixiz/dsmr-reader-docker:latest
    depends_on:
      - dsmrdb
    cap_add:
      - NET_ADMIN
    restart: always
    volumes:
      - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
      - /home/skank/dsmr:/dsmr/backups
    environment:
      - DJANGO_TIME_ZONE=Europe/Brussels
      - VIRTUAL_HOST=localhost
    ports:
      - 7777:80
      - 7779:443
    devices:
      - /dev/serial/by-id/usb-FTDI_FT232R_USB_UART_AQ5ADAWE-if00-port0:/dev/serial/by-id/usb-FTDI_FT232R_USB_UART_AQ5ADAWE-if00-port0
version: '2'

27

I am giving up, sorry.

30

No problem mate , thx for your help, hope someone else can help

31

You can look into this, if you want. This skips all the hassle:

https://community.home-assistant.io/t/custom-component-homewizard-energy-wifi-p1-meter

32

Mmm theres not much difference then with the integrated dsmr “slimme meter”

Thats the reason why i want to go the dsmr reader route…

33

Ah, I understand!
Can you let me know what you are ‘missing’ from the official component and what you want to achieve? Maybe I can bring it as a feature in the HomeWizard Energy component.

34

Using the official… HA is terrible in history keeping…
Thatswhy i would prefer the reader
Also, it fills up your db in ha

  • graphs without the need to program it

I think the homewizard energy component has the same sensors as the official , no???
Which sensors do you make then from it, in HA?

35

Same type of sensors (maybe a different name) and it uses the HA DB. So yes it has no use case for you. Sorry for the interruption.

36

No problem mate.
Perhaps i should stay with the official one…
And try other stuff with it.
I want statistics per day/week/month/year for gas and electric… and stuff

37

You could try to look into the Grafana add-on. Maybe this is way you are looking for.

38

I just posted in that topic of yours.
Theres a guy with very nice statistics

I am using DSRM reader this way.

Installed the Portainer Addon and added the two docker containers, 1 for DB and 1 for DSRM.
I will post some screenshots soon for the details.

You still need the integration if you want to have reading in Home Assistant though

  • Add a containter for the DB: postgres:12-alpine.

  • Map /var/lib/postgresql/data to hostvolume /mnt/data/supervisor/share/dsmrdb. (first install samba addon, you can then access dsmrdb in the share folder of hassio)

  • set network to hassio

  • add environment vars for POSTGRES_USER etc.

  • add a container for DSMR with the image: ualex73/dsmr-reader-docker:latest

  • for DB_HOST set it to dsmrdb:

Also add DSMRREADER_ADMIN_PASSWORD and DSMRREADER_ADMIN_USER as environment vars

  • set the network to hassio.
  • dont forget to the the device of the USB
  • map the ports 7779 to 443 and 7777 to 80
