INFLUXDB_USER =
INFLUXDB_SSL = false

https://www.influxdata.com/blog/telegraf-socket-listener-input-plugin/

3. Publish ServiceProvider

php artisan vendor:publish

The ServiceProvider will set up the library, so that you can use it everywhere in your project

4. Add default tags (optional)

To add default tags modify the config/influxdb.php

return [
    // ...
    'tags'        => ['environment' => 'development', 'host' => 'server1']
    // ...
];

Usage

There are some predefined functions to make it simpler to write data to InfluxDB, if you have any suggestions how to improve it further fell free to pass them to me.

use InfluxDB2\Point;
use louiswe\InfluxDB\Facades\InfluxDB;

// Increment success or failure measuremens
InfluxDB::increment("login"); // ["success" => 1]
InfluxDB::increment("login", false); // ["failure" => 1]


$tags = ['environment' => 'development', 'server' => 1];
$fields = ['success' => 1];

// Write Point to InfluxDB
$point = new Point('login', $tags, $fields);
InfluxDB::writePoint($point);

// Write directly to InfluxDB
InfluxDB::write('login', $tags, $fields);

Furthermore, you can access the methods of the library influxdb-client-php directly, for example:

use louiswe\InfluxDB\Facades\InfluxDB;

InfluxDB::createQueryApi();
InfluxDB::createUdpWriter();
