# NAME InfluxDB::Writer - Various tools to send lines to InfluxDB # VERSION version 1.003 # DESCRIPTION `InfluxDB::Writer` is a collection of tools & modules to send [lines](https://influxdb.com/docs/v0.9/write_protocols/line.html) to [InfluxDB](https://influxdb.com) Currently, the suggested setup is to have your apps write stats into a file containing the PID of the process. This file (or files) can then be processed by various tools provided by `InfluxDB::Writer` and their contents sent to InfluxDB. - [InfluxDB::Writer::FileTailer](https://metacpan.org/pod/InfluxDB%3A%3AWriter%3A%3AFileTailer) A daemon using `IO::Async` to watch a directory. All files in this directory that include the PID of a currently running process are tailed and any new lines added sent to InfluxDB in batches. New files added to the directory are also automatically tailed. - [InfluxDB::Writer::SendLines](https://metacpan.org/pod/InfluxDB%3A%3AWriter%3A%3ASendLines) A script that takes one file and send the lines to InfluxDB in batches. - [InfluxDB::Writer::CompactFiles](https://metacpan.org/pod/InfluxDB%3A%3AWriter%3A%3ACompactFiles) A script that checks all files in a directory. All files that contain PIDs of not longer running processes are compacted into one file which is then `gzip`ed. Please refer to the documentation of the respective modules for detailed information. # EXAMPLE USAGE We use [Measure::Everything::InfluxDB::](https://metacpan.org/pod/Measure%3A%3AEverything%3A%3AInfluxDB%3A%3A) # AUTHOR Thomas Klausner # COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE This software is copyright (c) 2015 - 2021 by Thomas Klausner.
