# InfluxDB Dumper

Dumps tables from InfluxDB to files in the InfluxDB lineformat. These files can later be imported by Nagflux or directly send by curl to the InfluxDB.

**This file should work with Python 2 and 3.**

## Usage

```

usage: dumper.py [-h] [--url URL] [--file FILE] [--target TARGET]

                 [tablenames [tablenames ...]]

Dumps Tables from InfluxDB and writes them to files

positional arguments:

  tablenames       List of tabelnames

optional arguments:

  -h, --help       show this help message and exit

  --url URL        URL to the InfluxDB with username, password... Default:

                   http://127.0.0.1:8086/query?db=mydb

  --file FILE      File with tablenames, one tablename per line

  --target TARGET  Target folder. Default: dump

```

### Get tablenames

``` bash

$ influx -database mydb -execute 'show series' | grep "name: " | cut -c 7-

```

Store them in a file and pass the filepath with --file to the dumper.

### Example

``` bash

$ influx -database mydb -execute 'show series' | grep "name: " | cut -c 7- > influx_list

$ python dumper.py --file influx_list --url 'http://InfluxDB:8086/query?db=mydb'

```

There should be a folder called dump, within on file per table.

Or dump just a few tables:

``` bash

$ python dumper.py --url 'http://InfluxDB:8086/query?db=mydb' 'mySpecialTable1' 'mySpecialTable2'

```
