Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Looks like an user error to me. Influx is for long-term storage of history and data, you don't need it for automation at all.
Looks like this is not up to you to decide.
If you would have read my comment, you would have noticed, that I intend to use Influx as a long term DB and use HA as automation around that. BTW: The thinking you're showing here is exactly what I'm criticizing. You think that DBs and automation have no connection, so you decide, that I am the idiot for even trying. This is literally what I've described above.
Also, I wrote quite a paragraph about the fact that I already accepted the idea to ditch the direct Influx integration.
So you use the free thing wrong, don't RTFM, vent on internet and then vent some more when corrected? What's your end game?
Nobody corrected me at all. It's just "yeah because u stoopid".
I did read the manual. I did search for solutions and tried different approaches. And I documented that above. You seem to ignore that.
Why do I vent here? Because that's the question of the fucking post! Read the post! That's exactly the question.
Why do you have to be so stubborn? Can't your accept, that maybe, just maybe, HA isn't directly sent from God? Is HA your religion? Does that religion prescribe only skimming comments and just reacting on keywords to rile yourself up?
Seriously, this pointless, self-righteous arrogance is the reason so many people hate "nerds". This entire thread here is basically the "well ackshually" meme in text form. Reflect a bit in what you're doing here.
