`dish_grpc_influx.py` and `dish_grpc_mqtt.py` are similar, but they send their output to an InfluxDB server and a MQTT broker, respectively. Run them with `-h` command line option for details on how to specify server and/or database options.
All 3 scripts support processing status data in addition to the history data.
