It would be great to have this as a addon for Home Assistant. I have no knowledge much for coding side and that but im sure willing to test and give feedback if you ever decide to bring this for all those users on Home Assistant project. More info here: https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/add-ons/tutorial/

Add JSON endpoint, for easy integration to 3rd party system like the home assistant.

es kommt ja doch relativ oft vor, dass die Ziffer 5 wechselt. Bei meiner Wasseruhr startet der Wechsel circa 50 Liter vorher (also z.B. bei 422,9500 und die Erkennung funktioniert wieder circa 10 Liter nach dem Wechsel (also bei z.B. 423,0100). Dazwischen kommt das N bei der Auswertung der Ziffer 5 (z.B. 42N,9990). Könnte man nicht in diesem Bereich, also von xxxxx,09500 bis xxxxx,0100 dieses N automatisch mit dem "richtigen" Wert ersetzen? Also 422,9999 und dann weiter mit 423.0000 ....
Den Bereich könnte man dann vielleicht in der config.ini einstellbar machen (Liter vorher / Liter nachher) da wahrscheinlich jede Wasseruhr anders ist.

My config:
[AnalogReadOut]
#If enabled analog counters will be read, if disabled only digital counters will be read.
Enabled=False

[PreValue]
time = 2000-01-01_00-00-00
lastvorkomma = 0000
lastnachkomma = 0000

After success reading, I got the error in:
ZaehlerstandClass.py

def prevalueStoreToFile(self, logtime):
config = configparser.ConfigParser()
config.read('./config/prevalue.ini')
config['PreValue']['LastVorkomma'] = self.LastVorkomma
config['PreValue']['LastNachkomma'] = self.LastNachkomma
config['PreValue']['Time'] = logtime
with open('./config/prevalue.ini', 'w') as cfg:
config.write(cfg)

The expected value is not a string.

Hi, pretty cool project! I have an endoscope camera that I can plug to the RaspberryPi via USB. Is there a way for the server to use it directly ?

I was thinking to have a webpage that is using the camera then give that URL to the server. Would that work? or is there an easier way?

the flash LED is quite bright. I used some tissue, to dim the light, but the light is still too bright.
Would be great, if there would be some possibility to dim the white LED.

Hi,

the image is torn and also mirrored in some cases after the Pre alignment. I tried different angles in the config.ini and also used both docker versions on my Pi 4 ( raspi-rolling and raspi-latest). I tried different test pictures from URLs.

It seems like i get some OK pictures if i choose around 220° in the config, which is weird.
If i choose 0° (which should be right) or 180° the preview (&full) is complety torn

Is there something else I could have probably done wrong? Btw I am a total beginner in this.

Great work and thank you in advance
Best regards

It would be nice to have the possibility to communicate with the system over MQTT.

The server would subscribe to a certain topic (config). The messages contain the picture in the payload and the server publishes the processed data as json on another topic (config).

Good day! i was installed docker version with that compose

version: "3"

services:
    mlcnt:
      restart: always
      image: jomjol/wasserzaehler:latest
      ports:
        - 3000:3000
      volumes:
        - "/opt:/config"
        - "/opt:/log"

also try to run single docker at
docker run -p 3000:3000 --mount type=bind,source=/opt,target=/config --mount type=bind,source=/opt,target=/log jomjol/wasserzaehler:latest
no luck... picture is the same crumpled

whold you be i pice of kind explain why this behavior still appear...

screen that was make as example correctly

why server crumpled and mirroring it?
where in config is parametrs to normalize photo?

I noticed that sometimes readout on top of the website is not updating even when picture has changed and also readout next to the digits and analog meters have changed correctly. Only restarting server has resolved this issue and readout is corrected after restart. Running on rasbian with docker on raspberrypi 3b

When starting the container I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./wasseruhr.py", line 1, in
from http.server import HTTPServer, BaseHTTPRequestHandler
ImportError: No module named http.server

The problem seems to be, that in the Dockerfile the wasseruhr.py is called with python. Python 2.7 doesn't have the HTTPServer.
Following change in the Dockerfile seems to fix the problem:
CMD ["python3", "./wasseruhr.py"]

Hello, first of all congratulations to this awesome project.
I run into a problem: The last digit to be recognized is changing from 4 to 5 which results in NaN.
Is there something to fix this ?
