influxdb sink

The influxdb sink uses the official InfluxDB golang client to write the metrics to an InfluxDB database in a blocking fashion. It provides only support for V2 write endpoints (InfluxDB 1.8.0 or later).

Configuration structure

  "<name>": {
    "type": "influxdb",

    "port": "4222",
    "user": "exampleuser",
    "password" : "examplepw",
    "organization": "myorg",
    "ssl": true,
  }
}
