influxdb1-clientv2 is the current Go client API for InfluxDB 1.x. For connecting to InfluxDB 2.x see the influxdb-client-go client library.

InfluxDB is an open-source distributed time series database, find more about InfluxDB at https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/latest

To import into your Go project, run the following command in your terminal: go get github.com/szmcdull/influxdb1-client/v2 Then, in your import declaration section of your Go file, paste the following: import "github.com/szmcdull/influxdb1-client/v2"

If you get the error build github.com/user/influx: cannot find module for path github.com/szmcdull/influxdb1-client/v2 when trying to build: change your import to:

import(
	_ "github.com/szmcdull/influxdb1-client" // this is important because of the bug in go mod
	client "github.com/szmcdull/influxdb1-client/v2"
)

The following example creates a new client to the InfluxDB host on localhost:8086 and runs a query for the measurement cpu_load from the mydb database.

func ExampleClient_query() {
	c, err := client.NewHTTPClient(client.HTTPConfig{
		Addr: "http://localhost:8086",
	})
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println("Error creating InfluxDB Client: ", err.Error())
	}
	defer c.Close()

	q := client.NewQuery("SELECT count(value) FROM cpu_load", "mydb", "")
	if response, err := c.Query(q); err == nil && response.Error() == nil {
		fmt.Println(response.Results)
	}
}
