# Unifi Poller
|
|
|
|
Collect your Unifi Controller Data and send it to an InfluxDB instance.
|
|
Grafana dashboards included. Updated 2019.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
[See the Wiki!](https://github.com/davidnewhall/unifi-poller/wiki/Installation)

# Backstory
|
|
|
|
Okay, so here's the deal. I found a simple piece of code on github that
|
|
sorta did what I needed; we all know that story. I wanted more data, so
|
|
I added more data collection. I believe I've completely rewritten every
|
|
piece of original code, except the copyright/license file and that's fine
|
|
by me. I probably wouldn't have made it this far if
|
|
[Garrett](https://github.com/dewski/unifi) hadn't written the original
|
|
code I started with. Many props my man.
|
|
|
|
The original code pulled only the client data. This app now pulls data
|
|
for clients, access points, security gateways and switches. I currently
|
|
own two UAP-AC-PROs, one USG-3 and one US-24-250W. If your devices differ
|
|
this app may miss some data. I'm willing to help and make it better.
|
|
Open an [Issue](https://github.com/davidnewhall/unifi-poller/issues) and
|
|
we'll figure out how to get things working for you.
|
|
|
|
# What's this data good for?
|
|
|
|
I've been trying to get my UAP data into Grafana. Sure, google search that.
|
|
You'll find [this](https://community.ubnt.com/t5/UniFi-Wireless/Grafana-dashboard-for-UniFi-APs-now-available/td-p/1833532).
|
|
And that's all you'll find. What if you don't want to deal with SNMP?
|
|
Well, here you go. I've replicated 90% of what you see on those SNMP-powered
|
|
dashboards with this Go app running on the same mac as my Unifi controller.
|
|
All without enabling SNMP nor trying to understand those OIDs. Mad props
|
|
to [waterside](https://community.ubnt.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/303058)
|
|
for making this dashboard; it gave me a fantastic start to making my own.
|
|
|
|
I've also created [another forum post](https://community.ubnt.com/t5/UniFi-Wireless/Unifi-Poller-Store-Unifi-Controller-Metrics-in-InfluxDB-without/td-p/2811951) you may use to get additional help.

# What now...
|
|
|
|
- Are there other devices that need to be included?
|
|
|
|
I have: switch, router, access point. Three total, and the type structs are
|
|
likely missing data for variants of these devices. e.g. Some UAPs have more
|
|
radios, I probably didn't properly account for that. Some gateways have more
|
|
ports, some switches have 10Gb, etc. These are things I do not have data on
|
|
to write code for. If you have these devices, and want them graphed, open an
|
|
Issue and lets discuss.
|
|
|
|
- Better Installation instructions.
|
|
|
|
If you're a nerd you can probably figure it out. I'd still like some pretty
|
|
pictures and maybe even a Twitch VOD. Update: The installation has been
|
|
simplified tremendously with the
|
|
[creation of binary packages](https://github.com/davidnewhall/unifi-poller/wiki/Package-Install).
|
|
More to come!
|
|
|
|
- Radios, Frequencies, Interfaces, vAPs
|
|
|
|
My access points only seem to have two radios, one interface and vAP per radio.
|
|
I'm not sure if the graphs, as-is, provide enough insight into APs with other
|
|
configurations. Help me figure that out?

# What's it look like?
|
|
|
|
Here's a picture of the Client dashboard.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here's a picture of the USG dashboard.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here's a picture of the UAP dashboard. This only shows one device, but you can
|
|
select multiple to put specific stats side-by-side.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The USW / Switch Dashboard is pretty big with one data-filled section per selected port.
|
|
You can drill down into specific sites, switches, and ports. Compare ports in different
|
|
sites side-by-side. So easy! This screenshot barely does it justice.
