RuuviTag Monitoring in Zabbix

RuuviTag is a small battery-powered sensor that measures temperature, humidity, air pressure and movement. It communicates the measured data by broadcasting the data values using Bluetooth.

I’m using a few of those sensors to monitor some rooms at home. There is an official Ruuvi Gateway Router available that can be used to interface the RuuviTags with other services, but I’m using my own Raspberry Pi computer to collect the data using the built-in Bluetooth chip and to send the data to my Zabbix server at home.

I published the Python code I use and the Zabbix template with a small set of instructions on GitHub:

Feel free to use and modify the code and template for your own purposes.
