Feature request : UPS monitoring with apcupsd

[lbalogh]

Hi,

First of all, do not hesitate to close this demand if it's out of scope, I would totally understand.

A few days ago, I was playing with Netdata, and I noticed that it magically shows statitistics for my UPS, which is managed by the apcupsd daemon on my host. There are graphs for current consumption (in W), minutes left, battery percentage, etc.

It would be very cool to have this kind of stats in Beszel ;)

Here is the Netadata documentation for reference : https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/collecting-metrics/ups/apc-ups

I agree this would be a nice feature. I'll look into it. Would be nice if there was an open protocol though, rather than an APC specific thing.

We're also planning to add custom charts where you can supply data via command or file content, so it should be possible in the future even if direct support isn't added.

Hello, you can check NUT https://networkupstools.org/, it has home assistant integration https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/nut/.

Thanks. Custom charts will be amazing !
