How to Use

Run docker container directly

docker run --rm  -d --name="apcupsd-influxdb-exporter" \
    -e "WATTS=600" \
    -e "INFLUXDB_HOST=10.0.1.11" \
    -e "APCUPSD_HOST=10.0.1.11" \
    -e "INFLUXDB_ORG=MyOrg" \
    -e "INFLUXDB_TOKEN=mysecrettoken" \
    -t atribe/apcupsd-influxdb-exporter
