I can not connect about mqtt-exporter HOT 4 CLOSED

You don't have metrics because it is not following the format used by mqtt-exporter by default. I don't know about solar assistant, but it seems the metrics are very similar to ESPhome.

Maybe try to enable ESPhome compatibility: https://github.com/kpetremann/mqtt-exporter?tab=readme-ov-file#esphome

You would just need to add the following environment variable: ESPHOME_TOPIC_PREFIXES="solar_assistant"

It doesn't work, I had to use node-red to then export it to influxdb and show it in grafana, thank you very much for your time bro.

Hi @byjosez,

At first look, I think you are using the wrong port.
If your Prometheus instance is also in a container, then mqtt-exporter is receiving the request from internal Docker network bridge, so you should use the port 9000 on which mqtt-exporter is actually listening on.

The port 9001 being for requests from outside your Docker environment, like doing a curl from the host or your computer.

I hope it helps.

Yes, I changed the port to 9000 and I get those metrics that I published last in the post, is that really what I should export? I don't see the data that I published when I run

mosquitto_sub -h 192.168.105.112 -p 1883 -v -t '#'
