getting lots of erroneous data from the modem

[dlarue]

Output from the Persistence Server Stats flow, influx node, seems to be getting almost every other message as invalid:

Error: A 400 Bad Request error occurred: {"error":"unable to parse 'efficiency,modem=ff070618,inverter=4108 value=Infinity': invalid boolean"}

As a patch, I added a test for msg.payload[0] and drop the msg if invalid...

const parts = msg.topic.split("/")
p = msg.payload[0]
if( !isNaN(p) ){
const value = parseFloat(msg.payload)
if(!isNaN(value) && parts.length==5){
msg.measurement = parts[4]
const data = [
{
value: value
},
{
modem: parts[1],
inverter: parts[3]
}
];
msg.payload = data
return msg;
}
}
