Fluxter

Fluxter is an InfluxDB writer for Elixir. It uses the InfluxDB line protocol over UDP.

Installation

Add Fluxter as a dependency to your mix.exs file:

defp deps() do
  [{:fluxter, "~> 0.8"}]
end

Then run mix deps.get in your shell to fetch the dependencies.

Usage

See the documentation for detailed usage information.

A module that uses Fluxter becomes an InfluxDB connection pool:

defmodule MyApp.Fluxter do
  use Fluxter
end

Each Fluxter pool provides a start_link/1 function that starts the pool and connects to InfluxDB; this function needs to be invoked before the pool can be used. Typically, you won't call start_link/1 directly as you'll want to add a Fluxter pool to your application's supervision tree. For this use case, pools provide a child_spec/1 function:

def start(_type, _args) do
  children = [
    MyApp.Fluxter,
    #...
  ]
  Supervisor.start_link(children, strategy: :one_for_one)
end

Once the Fluxter pool is started, its write/2,3, measure/2,3,4, and other functions can successfully be used to send points to the data store.
