Ecolyo
What's Ecolyo?
Ecolyo is a mobile-first app allowing citizens to visualise easily their energy consumption (electricity, gas, water ...). The app allows data visualisation but give also some tips on how to reduce energy consumption.

How does it works ?
Ecolyo uses "konnectors" for fetching data. More information on our konnector documentation. Repositories for our konnectors :
Development
For a more complete look at our project and our installation guide, check our Self Data Docs
📌 Note: we recommend to use Yarn instead of NPM for package management.
Developing the Cozy Ecolyo app requires you to be familiar with cozy's documentation. Cozy's apps use a standard set of scripts to run common tasks, like watch, lint, test, build…
Run it inside a default Cozy using Docker
First of all get cozy dev image :
docker pull cozy/cozy-app-dev
Then you can run your application inside a Cozy thanks to the cozy-stack docker image:
# in a terminal, run your app in watch mode with a docker running Cozy
$ yarn start
After the build and the stack launched, your app is now available at http://ecolyo.cozy.tools:8080.
Run it inside custom Docker
For the project we have created our own docker container. For more information on how to use it, please refer to wiki section.
Tests
Tests are run by jest under the hood. You can easily run the tests suite with:
yarn test
📌 Don't forget to update / create new tests when you contribute to code to keep the app the consistent.

Data storage
The Cozy datastore stores documents, which can be seen as JSON objects. A doctype
is simply a declaration of the fields in a given JSON object, to store similar objects in an homogeneous fashion.
Cozy ships a built-in list of doctypes
for representation of most of the common documents (Bills, Contacts, Files, ...).
Whenever your app needs to use a given doctype
, you should:
- Check if this is a standard
doctype
defined in Cozy itself. If this is the case, you should add a model declaration in your app containing at least the fields listed in the main fields list for thisdoctype
. Note that you can extend the Cozy-provideddoctype
with your own customs fields. This is typically what is done in Konnectors for the Billdoctype
. - If no standards
doctypes
fit your needs, you should define your owndoctype
in your app. In this case, you do not have to put any field you want in your model, but you should crosscheck other cozy apps to try to homogeneize the names of your fields, so that yourdoctype
data could be reused by other apps. This is typically the case for the Konnectordoctype
in Konnectors.
Community
Cozy is a platform that brings all your web services in the same private space. With it, your webapps and your devices can share data easily, providing you with a new experience. You can install Cozy on your own hardware where no one's tracking you.
You can reach the Cozy Community by:
- Chatting with us on IRC #cozycloud on Freenode
- Posting on our Forum
- Posting issues on the Github repos
- Say Hi! on Twitter
Localization
Localization and translations are handled by Transifex, which is used by all Cozy's apps.
As a translator, you can login to Transifex (using your Github account) and claim an access to the app repository. Locales are pulled when app is build before publishing.
As a developer, you must configure the transifex client, and claim an access as maintainer to the app repository. Then please only update the source locale file (usually en.json
in client and/or server parts), and push it to Transifex repository using the tx push -s
command.
