Hi Elliott,

Thank you for the kind words.

I'm sending your note to our developer's list, since there is a community
interested in this problem.

Christian Magnusson has written a "wrapper" script that stores and graphs
the data in a rrd database. This is the "Round Robin Database".

A number of people (like Mike Kalist) use mysql as a backend. You can
extract the data and populate the database by a number of means:
bash scripts, perl, python, etc. Actually any programming language that
allows you to read and write files.

Hi Paul,

I bumped into your OWFS site and downloaded the software and tried it on my
centos box. I was very impressed with the fact that everything worked
without a single hitch.

What I am trying to do is create a thermal profile for my house by reading
and storing temperature of different rooms in my house and trying to graph
after saving it on mysql under linux os. I am also trying to capture the
thermostat events like, turn on heat or cold or blower, hopefully this would
help give a better picture on my house leaks heat or cool during the
different parts of the year, and what part of the house needs to be better
insulated etc etc

Does such code already exist as part of your owfs suite of applications, or
do you recommend that I write some basic bash scripts to accomplish this? I
am not very familiar with bash scripts but its never too late.

Just wanted to check with you first before trying to re-invent the wheel.

Thanks for making a superb collection of software, I am sure there are many
others who have volunteered their time and effort towards this project,
thanks to them also.

Regards,
Elliott
