NAME

|
||
|
influxd-config - Generate configuration files for InfluxDB
|
||
|
|
||
|
SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
--------
|
||
|
[verse]
|
||
|
'influxd' config (-config <path>)
|
||
|
'influxd config' -config /dev/null
|
||
|
|
||
|
DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
-----------
|
||
|
'influxd config' will generate a configuration file for InfluxDB. The configuration file will be output to standard output and can be written to a file by redirecting the shell output to another file.
|
||
|
|
||
|
When a configuration file is specified using '-config <path>', this configuration file will be read and will overwrite the default values for any values that are present. It can be used to provide a configuration fragment with only the options you want to customize and generate a new configuration file from that file. If '-config <path>' is not specified, the command will look for a default configuration file using the same method as *influxd-run*(1).
|
||
|
|
||
|
When using this command to regenerate a configuration file in place, be sure to use a temporary file as the output. This command will not work:
|
||
|
|
||
|
===
|
||
|
# DO NOT USE!
|
||
|
$ influxd config -config influxdb.conf > influxdb.conf
|
||
|
|
||
|
# PROPER METHOD!
|
||
|
$ influxd config -config influxdb.conf > influxdb.conf.tmp && \
|
||
|
mv influxdb.conf.tmp influxdb.conf
|
||
|
===
|
||
|
|
||
|
The shell will truncate the configuration file before 'influxd config' can read it and you will lose all of your custom options. For safety, redirect output to a temporary file instead and use 'mv' to move the file afterwards.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The second command version will force 'influxd config' to output the default configuration file. Setting the configuration file to */dev/null* will cause the command to output only the defaults and will not read any values from any existing configuration files.
|
||
|
|
||
|
OPTIONS
|
||
|
-------
|
||
|
-config <path>::
|
||
|
Customize the default configuration file to load. Disables automatic loading when the path is */dev/null*.
