SOLECTRUS

SOLECTRUS is a smart photovoltaic dashboard that shows your energy production and usage. It also calculates costs and savings, helping you get the most out of your solar system.

Live Demo

A live demo with realtime data is available at https://demo.solectrus.de

Installation

For self-hosting SOLECTRUS, please look at https://github.com/solectrus/hosting

Development

  1. Clone the repo locally:
git clone [email protected]:solectrus/solectrus.git
cd solectrus
  1. Install PostgreSQL, Redis, and puma-dev (if not already present). On a Mac with HomeBrew, run this to install from the Brewfile:
brew bundle

Ensure that PostgreSQL is running:

brew services start postgresql@16
  1. 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
  1. Setup the application to install gems and NPM packages and create the database:
bin/setup
  1. Start the application locally:
bin/dev

This starts the app and opens https://solectrus.test in your default browser (see Procfile.dev).

Test

After preparing development environment (see above):

bin/influxdb-restart.sh
DISABLE_SPRING=1 bin/rspec
DISABLE_SPRING=1 RAILS_ENV=test bin/rake cypress:run
open coverage/index.html

RuboCop:

bin/rubocop

ESLint:

bin/yarn lint

TypeScript:

bin/yarn tsc

There is a shortcut to run all test and linting tools:

bin/test

Performance monitoring

The 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:
