I would like to set up TeslaMate as a docker running under unRAID. I have a bunch of dockers running on this server (like OpenVPN server, Unifi, Plex, SageTV, tec) but I have always installed them through the Apps plugin. Can anyone provide any guidance on how to do this in unRAID? I searched this thread and found no hits for unRAID.

Just build your docker-compose.yml and then execute 'docker-compose pull' - that should create the containers and then 'docker-compose -up -d'
I was able to manually install TeslaMate in a docker in unRAID by manually installing it in a number of steps. When I get a chance I will post a detailed description of what I did in case others wish to install TeslaMate in unRAID as well.
One thing that I don't have configured properly in TeslaMate is the Dashboards. What should I put in the Dashboards field in the TeslaMate settings? Currently I have put in http://192.168.1.99:3000/?viewPanel=3&orgId=1. In TeslaMate I get a Dashboards item that has a drop down for all of the various Dashboards, but no matter what I click on it just takes me to the list of all of the Dashboards as it takes me to the same URL, which is http://192.168.1.99:3000/?viewPanel=3&orgId=1. I am guessing that I have to do some additional config in either Grafan or in the TeslaMate Dashboards setting, but what am I missing?

I consider myself fairly geeky, but I have no idea how to do any of this in unRAID as dockers are pretty much always installed by searching for a docker in apps and clicking install. I found a thread on reddit that I followed for the most part,

Ok that works - it takes me to the page that has a list of all of the dashboards.
The one dashboard that may not be working is the Vampire Drain dashboard. This one says "No Data to show". What should I see here, and does this take a while to generate data? I have only had TeslaMate up for about 12 hours.
Are there other dashboards that people have create other than what is in the github repository dashboards folder?
On my TeslaMate homepage I only see the map of my car's location and a few stats. Is this what I should see? I could swear that I have seen some screenshots that show mor stuff on this page, including links to the dashboards.
Does TeslaMate have the capability to trigger actions on your car, like start climate or charging. Or have more sophisticated charging routines, like end charging at a specific time?

Vampire drain is built between drives, as you've only just started there will be no data.
Home page sounds correct, try the statistics page.
Great - how frequently does TeslaMate poll the API for data on your call. My car's internal temp was 4°C and I turned on the climate using the Tesla Remote app about 15 minutes ago and warmed the car up 22° according to that app. But on the Overview dashboard it still shows an internal temp of 4°C. So it looks like it hasn't pulled data for 15 minutes. I have tried refreshing the Overview page as well.
Recent builds of Teslamate use a streaming function of the Tesla API, it subscribes and receives data as it's published on the API. There is no polling frequency as such.
From what I've seen though the temperature data is only stored by Teslamate during either a Drive or a Charge, the Overview dashboard will update the next time one of these occurs.

I think the temp is only stored for 30 mins, so also when the car wakes then vehicle data is read, then just the streaming data which doesn't contain temp while the car goes to sleep, so te pnel drops the temp 30 mins after the last temp data (I saw a PR on github detailing this)
I can see temperature readings when the car wakes up - even though no drive or charge has taken place. No updates when it's asleep obviously.
Not sure if you've come across the 'Top Values by period' dashboard?

}Yes they appear on the Teslamate Dashboard when the car is online ( :4000), my point was more to the OP's question about Grafana - I'm not sure if that is updating at the same time, it may not be showing the same.
For example after Teslamate is restarted it won't show any temperature information until the next time the car is online, which suggests it's not retrieving data from Postgres (as Grafana is)
Yes that's correct. The distinction I'm making here is that Teslamate and Grafana are using different data sources. Teslamate's status shows data from the Tesla API and the local Postgres database on it's status page. However Grafana is limited to only displaying data already in the Postgres database.
I've just done some digging in the database and it appears that Teslamate is storing one entry in the "positions" table each time the car wakes up and for every 30 minutes it's online thereafter, in addition to those created every 3 seconds during Drives & Charging. That should allow Grafana to show at least something recent, but it's still not of any use for current tracking of environmental data when parked!
TL;DR If you want live data, check the Teslamate UI - not Grafana.

Maybe I have something configured wrong, but I don't see temp in TeslaMate, I see a map of my car's location and this info:

Techinically my car is a P85D rather than a P85D as I got the Ludicrous upgrade. Is that not available in the API or does TeslaMate not reflect that.
Edit - so my car most have woken up, as I now see:

Correct, if you initially start Teslamate when the car is offline it only shows the partial data that it has cached. The next time the car is online it will show additional data, such as climate, battery temperature (snowflake) and the charging schedule/limit - recording this every 30 minutes to the 'positions' table in Postgres, assuming it's not driving/charging.
Given Teslamate is supposed to be running all the time this isn't normally something you would see, until the next time you restart it.
