Telemetry data acquisition and sensor networks for humans.

Kotori

Kotori is a flexible data historian based on InfluxDB, Grafana, MQTT and more. Free, open, simple.

It is a telemetry data acquisition, processing and graphing toolkit aiming to become a fully integrated data historian. It is being conceived to support scientific environmental monitoring through distributed sensor networks and likewise scenarios.


In a nutshell

About

  • Kotori is a multi-channel and multi-protocol data historian.

  • It’s an infrastructure toolkit made of components for data acquisition, graphing and more.

  • The system is used for building flexible telemetry solutions in different scenarios. People are conceiving and building test benches and different kinds of sensor networks for environmental monitoring and beyond.

  • Built-in sensor adapters, flexible configuration capabilities, durable database storage and unattended graph visualization out of the box.

Technologies

Kotori is based on a number of fine infrastructure components and technologies and supports a number of protocols in one way or another. Standing on the shoulders of giants.

Installation

Kotori can be installed through a Debian package, from the Python Package Index (PyPI) or from the Git repository. Please follow up to the corresponding installation instructions:

As Kotori is pretty heavy in respect to the number of software components it relies on, things sometimes break when trying to install its dependencies. In order to let us know about any problems you might encounter when installing Kotori, please don’t hesitate to open an issue on GitHub.


¹ When choosing to install from the Debian package repository, you will also be able to receive appropriate Debian packages for Mosquitto, InfluxDB and Grafana through the DaqZilla package repository. This makes it easy to setup the complete DAQ system from a single package source.

² All of the Debian packages are available for amd64 and armhf architectures to support installations on RaspberryPi, Beaglebone, Odroid or similar ARM-based SBC machines.
