How to integrate this power measurement sensor in Domoticz?

[acaonweb]

Hi,
i've found this project

https://github.com/alcar21/WemosEM

and i can't understand if possible to integrate it into domoticz, because looking screenshots, i understand MQTT is supported but i can't see any idx field to fill, so i can't understand the way to use it in Domoticz.
Any expert could explain more?


Thanx in advance

I don't know this project, you can probably get it to work but it doesn't seem to be developed with Domoticz in mind, so it will probably involve extra work to integrate it.

Alternatively, you can have a look at this project:
https://www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/index.php/ESPEasy

Also uses ESP8266 modules, and integration in Domoticz is flawless! I am using this for a few sensors, for instance a water meter.

espeasy will format the telegram for domoticz already...
I think that's the best choice

Why don't you simply buy a shelly EM? It contains everything you need and it also supports Domoticz out of the box via MQTT (and a python plugin).

yes, but i'd like to understand how measure power

the best way to do that is using a line analyzer with modbus
I'm succesfully using a Eastron SDM120C and I'm pretty happy with it!

The meter is connected to a ESPEASY Mega (nodeMCU 4Mb) linked to my WiFi and then to domoticz.
