Features

• Real-Time Data Collection:

  • Collects data from Qingping sensors via MQTT with low latency.

• Sensor Data Monitoring:

  • Captures and processes the following metrics:
    • Temperature: Monitors ambient temperature.
    • Humidity: Tracks environmental humidity levels.
    • CO2 Levels: Measures carbon dioxide concentration.
    • PM2.5 and PM10: Tracks fine particulate matter in the air.
    • Battery Level: Reports the device’s battery status.

• Diagnostic Data Collection:

  • Retrieves detailed diagnostic information for devices, including:
    • WiFi Signal Strength: Monitors the strength of the device's WiFi connection.
    • WiFi Channel: Tracks the channel used by the connected WiFi network.
    • WiFi Access Point Details: Includes AP name and MAC address.
    • Software and Hardware Versions: Logs the device firmware and hardware details.
    • Timezone Settings: Captures the configured timezone for the device.

• Interval Management:

  • Supports dynamic device registration upon receiving the first message.
  • Configurable collection and reporting intervals with MQTT commands.

• Robust Error Handling:

  • Handles missing or invalid data gracefully with detailed logging.
  • Implements reconnection logic with exponential backoff for MQTT.

• Flexible Configuration:

  • Environment-based configuration for all key parameters.
  • Supports adjustable logging levels (DEBUG, INFO, etc.).
  • Option to use the current time instead of timestamps in the payload.

• Secure and Modern MQTT:

  • Built on MQTT v5 protocol with support for TLS to secure communications.
  • Clean session and keepalive support for reliable connections.

• Efficient Data Storage:

  • Stores data in InfluxDB, enabling time-series analysis and visualization.
  • Supports batched writes to optimize performance and reduce overhead.

• Extensible and Configurable:

  • Customizable flags for advanced features such as:
    • Using current time instead of payload timestamps.
    • Automatically setting device intervals upon detection.
  • Fully supports additional data points and new sensors with minimal changes.
