This output lets you output Metrics to InfluxDB
The configuration here attempts to be as friendly as possible and minimize the need for multiple definitions to write to multiple series and still be efficient
the InfluxDB API let’s you do some semblance of bulk operation per http call but each call is database-specific
You can learn more at InfluxDB homepage
This plugin supports the following configuration options:
Required configuration options:

- Value type is boolean
-
Default value is
false
Allow the override of the time column in the event?
By default any column with a name of time will be ignored and the time will
be determined by the value of @timestamp.
Setting this to true allows you to explicitly set the time column yourself
Note: time must be an epoch value in either seconds, milliseconds or microseconds
- Value type is codec
-
Default value is
"plain"
The codec used for output data. Output codecs are a convenient method for encoding your data before it leaves the output, without needing a separate filter in your Logstash pipeline.
- Value type is hash
-
Default value is
{}
Allow value coercion
this will attempt to convert data point values to the appropriate type before posting
otherwise sprintf-filtered numeric values could get sent as strings
format is {'column_name' => 'datatype'}
currently supported datatypes are integer and float
- This is a required setting.
- Value type is hash
-
Default value is
{}
Hash of key/value pairs representing data points to send to the named database
Example: {'column1' => 'value1', 'column2' => 'value2'}
Events for the same series will be batched together where possible Both keys and values support sprintf formatting
- DEPRECATED WARNING: This configuration item is deprecated and may not be available in future versions.
- Value type is array
-
Default value is
[]
Only handle events without any of these tags. Note this check is additional to type and tags.
- Value type is number
-
Default value is
100
This setting controls how many events will be buffered before sending a batch of events. Note that these are only batched for the same series
- This is a required setting.
- Value type is string
- There is no default value for this setting.
The hostname or IP address to reach your InfluxDB instance
- Value type is number
-
Default value is
1
The amount of time since last flush before a flush is forced.
This setting helps ensure slow event rates don’t get stuck in Logstash.
For example, if your flush_size is 100, and you have received 10 events,
and it has been more than idle_flush_time seconds since the last flush,
logstash will flush those 10 events automatically.
This helps keep both fast and slow log streams moving along in near-real-time.
- This is a required setting.
- Value type is password
-
Default value is
nil
The password for the user who access to the named database
- DEPRECATED WARNING: This configuration item is deprecated and may not be available in future versions.
- Value type is array
-
Default value is
[]
Only handle events with all of these tags. Note that if you specify a type, the event must also match that type. Optional.
-
Value can be any of:
m,s,u -
Default value is
"s"
Set the level of precision of time
only useful when overriding the time value
- DEPRECATED WARNING: This configuration item is deprecated and may not be available in future versions.
- Value type is string
-
Default value is
""
The type to act on. If a type is given, then this output will only
act on messages with the same type. See any input plugin’s type
attribute for more.
Optional.
- This is a required setting.
- Value type is string
-
Default value is
nil
The user who has access to the named database
- Value type is number
-
Default value is
1
The number of workers to use for this output. Note that this setting may not be useful for all outputs.
