Line Protocol

  • Example from the previous chapter:
    insert observations,location=1,scientist=langstroth butterflies=12,honeybees=23 1439856000
  • Sql-like and Json-Like Line Protocol
  • Single line of Line Protocol represents one data point in InfluxDB where
  • observations is the name of measurement
  • location=1,scientist=langstroth is the tag set, optional
  • Why do we need a tag set?
  • white space separates measurement, tag set, and field set
  • butterflies=12,honeybees=23 is the field set
  • 1439856000 is the timestamp, if omitted system timestamp is used
