The Enphase Prometheus docker app

getting the enlighten token for your envoy

Because the auth for enphase has been been changed to enlighten to tokens with only a 12 hour lifetime this docker application will do the following

• log into your enlighten account, then
• create a token, then
• use that token to authenticate with your envoy, then
• extract the data from the envoy and present it in a /metrics path

all of the actions above are cached for about 6 hours, so it wont spam enlighten with logins and token creations.

lastly and most importantly once a session is established with your envoy this will retreive data STRAIGHT FROM YOUR ENVOY, this means no ridiculous api fees form enlighten!

running the container

the container can be run like so, although I would suggest you store you token in a token file and run the environment with -e "ENPHASE_TOKEN=$(cat .tokenFile)" or with an environment file

docker run\
 -p 8000:8000\
 -e ENPHASE_HOST={ip_address_of_envoy}\
 -e ENPHASE_EMAIL={enlighted_email}\
 -e ENPHASE_PASSWORD={enlighten_password}\
 -e ENPHASE_SITE={enlighten_site_name}\
 -it mooseyman1988/enphase-prometheus
