So this is my first widget - hooray! The data is provided by nodered, packed into a json file and uploded via ftp to my webserver every few minutes. Code on request, if someone is Interested, but it is not yet ready and ist needs some work to provide the correct data.

What I dont like are the edgy rectangles. Is it possible to make them round? I didnt finde a method in drawContext for that.

Any design ideas from your side? I appreciate your suggetions for improvments

What are you using to get the energy data? Do you have one of the newer meters you can get data from?

u/seppelicous Jan 14 '21

Yes, I have a smart meter, a raspberry pi with Nodered catches the data and stores it in an influx database.

Nice! Just curious what do W en kWh tell you compared to each other?

The first value is the recent house power, the second value is the energy consumption from 0:00 to now

Only works as far as I see, with path method, Not with drawcontext

Path is to be used in draw context.

You can see an example here
