Thanks for the suggestion. I put a post on there yesterday afternoon and so far zero responses!

Mine auto updates, just checked and it's on this build and looks OK at quick glance.Anyone tried v1.29.1 yet - thought I'd ask first as I'm chicken

I’ve obviously missed a trick here, how do you make it auto- update? (spot the unix noob!)
So I'm using docker-compose. The first one is something called Watchtower that will look for updates to containers and then pull and update them. It needs access to the docker.sock for this to work. I also have it set to only update them at 4am and only containers where I put a label on them.
Put this in a folder and a file called docker-compose.yml
Code:
version: "3.5"
services:
watchtower:
image: v2tec/watchtower
container_name: watchtower
restart: always
network_mode: none
volumes:
- /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
command: --label-enable --schedule "0 0 4 * * *" --cleanup
environment:
- TZ=Europe/London
labels:
- "com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.enable=true"Now run docker compose up -d
It'll be running but won't do anything yet, the key is you need to add the label "com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.enable=true" to containers you want to automatically update.
I've cut a lot out here but for Teslamate it'll have these bits in it:
Code:
version: "3.5"
services:
teslamate:
image: teslamate/teslamate:latest
container_name: teslamate
restart: always
...
...
...
...
labels:
- "com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.enable=true"
database:
image: postgres:14
container_name: teslamate-db
restart: always
...
...
...
...
labels:
- "com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.enable=true"
grafana:
image: teslamate/grafana:latest
container_name: teslamate-grafana
restart: always
...
...
...
...
labels:
- "com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.enable=true"
mosquitto:
image: eclipse-mosquitto:2
container_name: teslamate-mosquitto
restart: always
...
...
...
...
labels:
- "com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.enable=true"Here's where someone tells me I have it pinned to some old components but I've not touched it for 1.5 years.
Or you can just take out --label-enable on the watchtower one and then it will update everything you are running in docker when it sees something new at 4am. I just wanted a bit more control is all.

I just had a look through my Teslamate States history & most of the asleeps are shown as offline. However, there was one a couple of nights ago that was shown as asleep. Looks like a glitch then. It's weird because the Tesla app can tell the difference between asleep & offline, so it's being reported, just not to the public-facing (private) API.
This is working well & I've followed instructions above for my other query to add a button to the dashboards. However, adding this dashboard to the list seems to have thrown off a couple of other things:
(1) On the Teslamate screen, there's no Dashboard link to this particular dashboard.
(2) On the Teslamate screen, the link to the Statistics dashboard no longer works. This is fine from a Grafana screen, just not from the Teslamate screen. I wonder whether this is related to some sort of reordering of the URLs & Teslamate not knowing that there's an extra dashboard (same issue as (1))?
Any help for this noob would be appreciated. Not the end of the world, but this is a learning activity for me.
There won't be. The Teslamate page only shows the built-in dashboards. You will see it in the dashboards drop down on GRafana if you've followed the above.
Noobs should look at the Github page in the first instance
Statistics dashboard not working from menu in v1.29.1 · Issue #3899 · teslamate-org/teslamate
Is there an existing issue for this? I have searched the existing issues What happened? When I select "statistics" from homepage I get this page It works if I navigate in graphana Expected Behavior...
github.com
This particular noob has tried to navigate Github before & got hopelessly lost! I thought this was related to the installation of the new dashboard, but forgot that I had updated Teslamate at some stage too. Thank you!Noobs should look at the Github page in the first instance
I use a little known website to do my searching. It begins with a G
For something like this I just go straight to the issues page and have a quick scan. If need be you can search for a keyword in your problem e.g. Statistics and it should bring up any issues
Wait. I know! Oh no I don’t. I’ll try to find it. Let me Google that.I use a little known website to do my searching. It begins with a G
No, what I meant by I get lost in GitHub is that the words themselves have very little meaning to me. Too high brow geeky!
All you need to know is that they're away of the issue and if there is a workaround or it needs an update. Keep asking here if you're stuck though.
When I get some time and if I can decipher the code I'm hoping to fork it and add an option to "treat offline as asleep" (like TeslaFi has). My OCD is bad with it always showing "offline" now, when I know it isn't.
The TeslaMate devs are reticent to conflate "offline" with "asleep", which i get, but at the same time it seems like everyone sees "offline" now, including Ryzen people, so there will come a point where "asleep" basically doesn't get seen as a state.

Is your OCD not bothered if it's marked asleep when it's really offline?
But seriously, it would be nice to have the option. Would keep the fakers and purists happy.
Edit: with further thought, it would be very easy to duplicate the grafana dashboards and make the changes there, while preserving the raw data.

I’m getting a combination of offline and asleep. I have no idea what determines which one to display.
