wled2graph 0.1.6

wled2graph supports a table and graphs of FPS and other data from multiple WLED endpoints in real-time via a browser interface

wled2graph

wled2graph is a Python program designed to visualize Frames Per Second (FPS) data and other from WLED endpoints on a network in real-time using a Bokeh graph server. It sets up a polling loop, defaulting to every 5 seconds, to fetch the current JSON state from each specified WLED endpoint

Note that the Bokeh server is hosted on port 5006 by default. You can access the graph by navigating to http://localhost:5006 in your web browser.

The browser window should be spawned on wled2graph launch, however, wled2graph is not closed on closure of the browser.

You can navigate again to the same URL to re-open the graph, as long as the application is left running.

Features

• Real-time FPS, BSSID, RSSI and Ping Visualization: Continuously polls WLED endpoints and updates the graph with current FPS values.
• IP address hyperlink to WLED UI: Just click through direct to the WLED UI for the selected WLED endpoint.
• Configurable Polling Frequency: Allows customization of the polling interval to suit network and performance needs.
• Scalable: Can monitor multiple WLED endpoints simultaneously.
• Customizable Data Points Rollover: Supports setting a maximum number of data points to display on the graph, after which old data points are rolled off.

Installation from PyPi

pip install wled2graph

wled2graph is executed from the command line and requires a list of IP addresses corresponding to the WLED endpoints you wish to monitor.

wled2graph -w <WLED_IPs> [-t <time_period>] [-r <rollover>]

-w, --wleds: A comma-separated list of IP addresses for the WLED endpoints.
-t, --time-period: (Optional) The time period in seconds for polling the WLEDs. Default is 5 seconds.
-r, --rollover: (Optional) The number of data points to keep in the graph before rolling over. Default is 20000.
-m, --remote: allow remote access to server on port 5006, default is False

Example

To start monitoring two WLED endpoints with a polling interval of 10 seconds:

wled2graph -w 192.168.1.100,192.168.1.101 -t 10

To start monitoring five WLED endpoints with a polling interval of 1 seconds and a data point rollover of 30:

wled2graph -w "192.168.1.216, 192.168.1.217, 192.168.1.220, 192.168.1.229, 192.168.1.230" -t 1 -r 30

How to develop on wled2graph

Source code is hosted at https://github.com/bigredfrog/wled2graph

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have met the following requirements:

• Python 3.9 or higher

• uv package management is present, which can be installed with

  pip install uv
  

1. Clone the repository to your local machine:

   git clone https://github.com/bigredfrog/wled2graph.git
   cd wled2graph
   

2. Install the project dependencies and test launch in a venv using uv:

   uv run wled2graph
   

   This will create a virtual environment and install the necessary Python libraries.

Development Usage

wled2graph is executed from the command line and requires a list of IP addresses corresponding to the WLED endpoints you wish to monitor.

uv run wled2graph -w <WLED_IPs> [-t <time_period>] [-r <rollover>]

-w, --wleds: A comma-separated list of IP addresses for the WLED endpoints.
-t, --time-period: (Optional) The time period in seconds for polling the WLEDs. Default is 5 seconds.
-r, --rollover: (Optional) The number of data points to keep in the graph before rolling over. Default is 20000.

Example

To start monitoring two WLED endpoints with a polling interval of 10 seconds:

uv run wled2graph -w 192.168.1.100,192.168.1.101 -t 10

To start monitoring five WLED endpoints with a polling interval of 1 seconds and a data point rollover of 30:

uv run wled2graph -w "192.168.1.216, 192.168.1.217, 192.168.1.220, 192.168.1.229, 192.168.1.230" -t 1 -r 30

VSCode support

wled2graph incluses a .vscode/launch.json

Set the Python Interpreter for the project in VSCode

Press Ctrl + Shift + P (or Cmd + Shift + P on macOS) and select "Python: Select Interpreter". Browse to the virtual environment path from the uv created venv and select the python executable inside it.

Edit the "args" options in launch.json

add your IP address of interest or other launch options

Launch from the debugpy Run and Debug drop down

wled2graph should run in the virtual environment against your selected args
