Postgres

Setup Timescale for Unified Namespace data logging

connect

psql -d "postgres://user:password@localhost/postgres"

check

\dx                               # list extensions
\dt                               # list all tables

Create database

# DROP DATABASE unifiednamespace;
CREATE DATABASE unifiednamespace OWNER user;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE unifiednamespace TO user;

\c unifiednamespace               # switch to database

Option A: Simple table (with topic as text column

-- Create table
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS process_value_numeric (
    timestamp TIMESTAMPTZ NOT NULL,
    topic TEXT NOT NULL,
    value DOUBLE PRECISION NULL    );

-- Create hypertable
SELECT create_hypertable('process_value_numeric', 'timestamp');

-- add index
CREATE INDEX ON process_value_numeric (topic, timestamp DESC);

View table information

 \d process_value_numeric

Option B: Linked tables (with topic as id)

create topic table

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS topic (
    id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
    topic TEXT NOT NULL,
    UNIQUE(topic)
);

create data table

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS process_value_numeric (
    timestamp TIMESTAMPTZ NOT NULL,
    topic_id INTEGER NOT NULL REFERENCES topic(id),
    value DOUBLE PRECISION NULL,
    UNIQUE(timestamp, topic_id)
);

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS process_value_text (
    timestamp TIMESTAMPTZ NOT NULL,
    topic_id INTEGER NOT NULL REFERENCES topic(id),
    value TEXT NULL,
    UNIQUE(timestamp, topic_id)
);

SELECT create_hypertable('process_value_numeric', 'timestamp');

insert sample topics

INSERT INTO topic (topic) VALUES 
('uns/v1/home/plug-fridge/sensor/energy/state'),
('uns/v1/home/plug-f3e8e6-dishwasher/sensor/energy/state'),
('uns/v1/home/modbus-meter/sensor/total_import_kwh/state'),
('uns/v1/home/modbus-meter/sensor/total_system_power_w/state');

insert sample data

INSERT INTO process_value_numeric (timestamp, topic_id, value) VALUES 
(now(), '1', '132');

insert data with topic_id lookup

-- step 1: insert topic if not exists
INSERT INTO topic (topic) VALUES
('uns/v1/home/plug-fridge/sensor/energy/state')
ON CONFLICT (topic) DO NOTHING;

-- step 2: insert data point
INSERT INTO process_value_numeric (timestamp, topic_id, value) VALUES (
    NOW(), 
    (SELECT id FROM topic WHERE topic = 'uns/v1/home/plug-fridge/sensor/energy/state'),
	2135.5
);

create view to show process value together with topic name

CREATE VIEW process_value_with_topic_name AS
SELECT pv.timestamp, t.topic, pv.value
FROM "process_value_numeric" pv
INNER JOIN topic t ON pv.topic_id = t.id

Insert data

via Node-RED

INSERT INTO process_value (timestamp, topic, value) VALUES (
    now(),
    '{{{ msg.topic }}}',
    '{{{ msg.payload }}}'
);

Get table size

SELECT hypertable_size('process_value');

Query

Grafana timefilter macro

limits query to timeframe selected in grafana

SELECT * 
FROM process_value
WHERE (topic = 'home/modbus-meter/sensor/total_system_power_w/state' 
AND $__timeFilter("time"))

Time buckets

https://docs.timescale.com/use-timescale/latest/time-buckets/about-time-buckets/
https://docs.timescale.com/use-timescale/latest/time-buckets/use-time-buckets/
15min average time_buckets

SELECT time_bucket('1 hour', timestamp) as time,
  avg(value) AS avg_value
FROM sensor_data
WHERE
  topic = 'home/modbus-meter/sensor/total_system_power_w/state'
  AND 
  $__timeFilter("timestamp")
GROUP by time

Meter / increasing counter

SELECT time_bucket('1 hour', time) as bucket,
 first(time,time) as period_begin,
 last(time,time) as period_end,
 MAX(counter) - MIN(counter) as total_consumption
FROM 
GROUP BY 1;

first() + last ()

topic = SELECT DISTINCT topic FROM "sensor_data"
