## Application Example

+**init.lua** is an example application with optional HomeAssistant and InfluxDB integration.
+To use it, you need to create a **config.lua** file with WiFI and MQTT/InfluxDB settings:

-Optionally, it can also publish readings to InfluxDB.
-To do so, configure URL and attribute:

-```lua
influx_url = "..."
influx_attr = "..."
```
-Readings will be published as `sds011[influx_attr] pm2_5_ugm3=%d.%01d,pm10_ugm3=%d.%01d`.
+Both `mqtt_host` and `influx_url` are optional, though it does not make much sense to specify neither.
+InfluxDB readings will be published as `sds011[influx_attr] pm2_5_ugm3=%d.%01d,pm10_ugm3=%d.%01d`.
So, unless `influx_attr = ''`, it must start with a comma, e.g. `influx_attr = ',device=' .. device_id`.
