How to look at your energy consumption on the web

details

This project is for monitoring Energy consumption with Arduino Ethernet Shield. There are three steps to design all.

Part one : Ethernet Shield

The first step is about sending set values out to the Server with Ethernet shield. It looks kind of sub-tutorial to do the whole project.

Using GET Method, can request specific data from the Server.

And the Server will be database to monitor Energy consumption.

Part two : Setting up a Database.

Before the Database, need to have a web host.

There are many ways to get it and the Author recommends WebHost.uk. If you have, setup a LAMP server on running Ubuntu. (Here is a tutorial)

After set own server ether on  your local or out of local, go to MySQL Databases and set it up (the details are in the Blog)

Part three : Reading from the Database and graphing with Flot

Download the attached file(web page) and Flot on the Blog and upload Flot to the document root of own demain and unzip it. The web page downloaded accesses the Database  and creates a flot graph from it.
