SOLECTRUS is your smart solar dashboard, giving you real‑time insights into energy generation and consumption. It automatically calculates costs and savings, so you can maximize the performance of your PV system.
Try it out at https://demo.solectrus.de
SOLECTRUS is a self‑hosted solution — just bring your own server (a Raspberry Pi works great, but any Linux box will do). To get started, visit https://configurator.solectrus.de/ and generate your Docker configuration interactively.
To contribute, set up a local development environment (this guide assumes macOS with Homebrew):
- Clone the repository:
git clone [email protected]:solectrus/solectrus.git
cd solectrus- Install PostgreSQL, Redis, and puma-dev (if not already present). On a Mac with HomeBrew, run this to install from the
Brewfile:
brew bundleEnsure that PostgreSQL is running:
brew services start postgresql@18- Install and set up puma-dev to use HTTPS for development. Do this on macOS:
sudo puma-dev -setup
puma-dev -install
puma-dev link
# Use Vite via puma-dev proxy
# Adopted from https://github.com/puma/puma-dev#webpack-dev-server
echo 3036 > ~/.puma-dev/vite.solectrus- Setup the application to install gems and NPM packages and create the database:
bin/setup- Start the application locally:
bin/devThis starts the app and opens https://solectrus.test in your default browser (see Procfile.dev).
After preparing development environment (see above):
bin/influxdb-restart.sh
DISABLE_SPRING=1 bin/rspec
open coverage/index.htmlRuboCop:
bin/rubocop
ESLint:
bin/yarn lint
TypeScript:
bin/yarn tsc
There is a shortcut to run all test and linting tools:
bin/ciThe Live Demo is hosted at Hetzner Cloud. For performance monitoring, it uses RorVsWild, which is free for OpenSource projects. You can see internal metrics like CPU, memory, and disk usage, as well as request times and errors here: https://www.rorvswild.com/applications/136101/requests
