The Eclipse Zenoh: Zero Overhead Pub/sub, Store/Query and Compute. . Zenoh (pronounce _/zeno/_) unifies data in motion, data at rest and computations. It carefully blends traditional pub/sub with geo-distributed storages, queries and computations, while retaining a level of time and space efficiency that is well beyond any of the mainstream stacks. . Check the website [zenoh.io](http://zenoh.io) and the [roadmap](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap) for more detailed information. . ------------------------------- . # InfluxDB backend . In Zenoh a backend is a storage technology (such as DBMS, time-series database, file system...) alowing to store the keys/values publications made via zenoh and return them on queries. See the [zenoh documentation](http://zenoh.io/docs/manual/backends/) for more details. . This backend relies on an [InfluxDB](https://www.influxdata.com/products/influxdb/) server to implement the storages. Its library name (without OS specific prefix and extension) that zenoh will rely on to find it and load it is **`zenoh_backend_influxdb`**. . :point_right: **Install latest release:** see [below](#how-to-install-it) . :point_right: **Build "main" branch:** see [below](#how-to-build-it) . :note: This has full support for Influxdb 1.x and partial support for InfluxDB 2.x. . ------------------------------- . ## :warning: Documentation for previous 0.5 versions . The following documentation related to the version currently in development in "main" branch: 0.6.x. . For previous versions see the README and code of the corresponding tagged version: . - [0.5.0-beta.9](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/tree/0.5.0-beta.9#readme) - [0.5.0-beta.8](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/tree/0.5.0-beta.8#readme) . ------------------------------- . ## **Examples of usage** . Prerequisites: . - You have a zenoh router (`zenohd`) installed, and the `zenoh_backend_influxdb` library file is available in `~/.zenoh/lib`. - You have an InfluxDB service running and listening on `http://localhost:8086` . You can setup storages either at zenoh router startup via a configuration file, either at runtime via the zenoh admin space, using for instance the REST API. . ### **Setup via a JSON5 configuration file** . - Create a `zenoh.json5` configuration file containing for example: . ```json5 { plugins: { // configuration of "storage_manager" plugin: storage_manager: { volumes: { // configuration of a "influxdb" volume (the "zenoh_backend_influxdb" backend library will be loaded at startup) //this should be named influxdb for v1 influxdb: { // URL to the InfluxDB service url: "http://localhost:8086", private: { //For Influxdb v1.x: // If needed: InfluxDB credentials, preferably admin for databases creation and drop //username: "admin", //password: "password" . //For Influxdb v2.x: // If needed: InfluxDB credentials, preferably ALL-ACCESS for databases creation and drop //if not ALL-ACCESS then atleast with authorization to create/delete buckets //Note: this should not be left empty for the plugin to work; if you have no admin creds, you can copy the user creds instead // token: "access token" . } } }, storages: { // configuration of a "demo" storage using the "influxdb" volume demo: { // the key expression this storage will subscribes to key_expr: "demo/example/**", // this prefix will be stripped from the received key when converting to database key. // i.e.: "demo/example/a/b" will be stored as "a/b" // this option is optional strip_prefix: "demo/example", volume: { //this will be influxdb for v1 (exactly the same name as in volumes section) id: "influxdb", // the database/bucket name within InfluxDB db: "zenoh_example", // if the database doesn't exist, create it create_db: false, // strategy on storage closure on_closure: "do_nothing", private: { . //For Influxdb v1.x: //Required: InfluxDB credentials to read-write on the bucket //username: "admin", //password: "password" . //For Influxdb v2.x: //Required //InfluxDB credentials, with read/write privileges for the database //this is a token with either: //a.) Read-Write access to the existing DB named above in the config (case where db/bucket already exists) //b.) Read-write access to ALL buckets in the organization so it can access the new bucket created by zenoh; //(case where a new db/bucket has to be created) // token: "user access token" } } } } }, // Optionally, add the REST plugin rest: { http_port: 8000 } } } ``` . - Run the zenoh router with: `zenohd -c zenoh.json5` . ### **Setup at runtime via `curl` commands on the admin space** . - Run the zenoh router, with write permissions to its admin space and with the REST plugin: `zenohd --adminspace-permissions=rw --rest-http-port=8000` - Add the "influxdb" volume (the "zenoh_backend_fs" library will be loaded), connected to InfluxDB service on [http://localhost:8086](http://localhost:8086): `curl -X PUT -H 'content-type:application/json' -d '{url:"http://localhost:8086"}' http://localhost:8000/@/router/local/config/plugins/storage_manager/volumes/influxdb` - Add the "demo" storage using the "influxdb" volume: `curl -X PUT -H 'content-type:application/json' -d '{key_expr:"demo/example/**",volume:{id:"influxdb",db:"zenoh_example",create_db:true}}' http://localhost:8000/@/router/local/config/plugins/storage_manager/storages/demo` . ### **Tests using the REST API** . Using `curl` to publish and query keys/values, you can: . ```bash # Put some values at different time intervals curl -X PUT -d "TEST-1" http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test curl -X PUT -d "TEST-2" http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test curl -X PUT -d "TEST-3" http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test . # Retrive them as a time serie where '_time=[..]' means "infinite time range" curl -g 'http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test?_time=[..]' ``` . . ------------------------------- . ## Volume configuration . InfluxDB-backed volumes need some configuration to work: . - **`"url"`** (**required**) : a URL to the InfluxDB service. Example: `http://localhost:8086` . ### admin level credentials . #### for v1.x . - **`"username"`** (optional) : an [InfluxDB admin](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/administration/authentication_and_authorization/#admin-users) user name. It will be used for creation of databases, granting read/write privileges of databases mapped to storages and dropping of databases and measurements. . - **`"password"`** (optional) : the admin user's password. . Both `username` and `password` should be hidden behind a `private` object, as shown in the example [above](#setup-via-a-json5-configuration-file). In general, if you wish for a part of the configuration to be hidden when configuration is queried, you should hide it behind a `private` object. . #### for v2.x . - **`"token"`** (optional) : the admin user's token. It will be used for creation and dropping of databases. In Influxdb2.x, you can use an ALL ACCESS token for this ([https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/#all-access-token](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/#all-access-token)) . The `token` should be hidden behind a `private` object, like the "username" and "password" shown in the example [above](#setup-via-a-json5-configuration-file). In general, if you wish for a part of the configuration to be hidden when configuration is queried, you should hide it behind a `private` object. . ------------------------------- . ## Volume-specific storage configuration . Storages relying on a `influxdb` backed volume may have additional configuration through the `volume` section: . - **`"db"`** (optional, string) : the InfluxDB database name the storage will map into. If not specified, a random name will be generated, and the corresponding database will be created (even if `"create_db"` is not set). . - **`"create_db"`** (optional, boolean) : create the InfluxDB database if not already existing. By default the database is not created, unless `"db"` property is not specified. _(the value doesn't matter, only the property existence is checked)_ . - **`"on_closure"`** (optional, string) : the strategy to use when the Storage is removed. There are 3 options: - _unset_ or `"do_nothing"`: the database remains untouched (this is the default behaviour) - `"drop_db"`: the database is dropped (i.e. removed) - `"drop_series"`: all the series (measurements) are dropped and the database remains empty. . - **`"token"`** (optional, string) : an InfluxDB access token, usually [non-admin](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/#readwrite-token). It will be used to read/write points in the database on GET/PUT/DELETE zenoh operations. . ------------------------------- . ## **Behaviour of the backend** . ### Mapping to InfluxDB concepts . Each **storage** will map to an InfluxDB **database**. Each **key** to store will map to an InfluxDB [**measurement**](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/concepts/key_concepts/#measurement) named with the key stripped from the `"strip_prefix"` property (see below). Each **key/value** put into the storage will map to an InfluxDB [**point**](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/concepts/key_concepts/#point) reusing the timestamp set by zenoh (but with a precision of nanoseconds). The fileds and tags of the point is are the following: . - `"kind"` tag: the zenoh change kind (`"PUT"` for a value that have been put, or `"DEL"` to mark the deletion of the key) - `"timestamp"` field: the original zenoh timestamp - `"encoding"` field: the value's encoding flag - `"base64"` field: a boolean indicating if the value is encoded in base64 - `"value"`field: the value as a string, possibly encoded in base64 for binary values. . ### Behaviour on deletion . On deletion of a key, all points with a timestamp before the deletion message are deleted. A point with `"kind"="DEL`" is inserted (to avoid re-insertion of points with an older timestamp in case of un-ordered messages). In v1, zenoh used to drop the measurement corresponding to the deleted key is dropped if it still contains no points after 5secs. However, influxdb 2.x doesn't support this feature. . ### Behaviour on GET . On GET operations, by default the storage returns only the latest point for each key/measurement. This is to be coherent with other backends technologies that only store 1 value per-key. If you want to get time-series as a result of a GET operation, you need to specify a time range via the `"_time"`argument in your [Selector](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap/tree/main/rfcs/ALL/Selectors). . :note: Right now, wild chunks like * and ** works only for Influxdb 1.x. This is due to lack of support in Influxdb 2.x API for our approach. . Examples of selectors: . ```bash # get the complete time-series /demo/example/**?_time=[..] . # get points within a fixed date interval /demo/example/influxdb/**?_time=[2020-01-01T00:00:00Z..2020-01-02T12:00:00.000000000Z] . # get points within a relative date interval /demo/example/influxdb/**?_time=[now(-2d)..now(-1d)] ``` . See the [`"_time"` RFC](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap/blob/main/rfcs/ALL/Selectors/_time.md) for a complete description of the time range format . ------------------------------- . ## How to install it . To install the latest release of this backend library, you can do as follows: . ### Manual installation (all platforms) . All release packages can be downloaded from: . - [https://download.eclipse.org/zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/latest/](https://download.eclipse.org/zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/latest/) . Each subdirectory has the name of the Rust target. See the platforms each target corresponds to on [https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/rustc/platform-support.html](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/rustc/platform-support.html) . Choose your platform and download the `.zip` file. Unzip it in the same directory than `zenohd` or to any directory where it can find the backend library (e.g. /usr/lib or ~/.zenoh/lib) . ### Linux Debian . Add Eclipse Zenoh private repository to the sources list, and install the `zenoh-backend-influxdb-v1` package: . ```bash echo "deb [trusted=yes] https://download.eclipse.org/zenoh/debian-repo/ /" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list > /dev/null sudo apt update sudo apt install zenoh-backend-influxdb-v1 ``` . ------------------------------- . ## How to build it . > :warning: **WARNING** :warning: : Zenoh and its ecosystem are under active development. When you build from git, make sure you also build from git any other Zenoh repository you plan to use (e.g. binding, plugin, backend, etc.). It may happen that some changes in git are not compatible with the most recent packaged Zenoh release (e.g. deb, docker, pip). We put particular effort in mantaining compatibility between the various git repositories in the Zenoh project. . At first, install [Cargo and Rust](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/getting-started/installation.html). If you already have the Rust toolchain installed, make sure it is up-to-date with: . ```bash rustup update ``` . > :warning: **WARNING** :warning: : As Rust doesn't have a stable ABI, the backend library should be built with the exact same Rust version than `zenohd`, and using for `zenoh` dependency the same version (or commit number) than 'zenohd'. Otherwise, incompatibilities in memory mapping of shared types between `zenohd` and the library can lead to a `"SIGSEV"` crash. . To know the Rust version you're `zenohd` has been built with, use the `--version` option. . ### Example with a downloaded version . ```bash $ zenohd --version The zenoh router v0.10.0-rc built with rustc 1.72.0 (5680fa18f 2023-08-23) ``` . Here, `zenohd` is version `0.10.0-rc` has been built with the rustc version `1.72.0`. Install and use this same toolchain with the following command: . ```bash rustup default 1.72.0 ``` . And edit the update `Cargo.toml` file to make all the `zenoh` dependencies to use the same version number: . ```toml zenoh = { version = "0.10.0-rc", features = [ "unstable" ] } ``` . Then build library only for the v1 backend, you have to specify it in the build command: . ```bash cargo build --release --all-targets -p zenoh-backend-influxdb-v1 ``` . You can build both the versions as well: . ```bash cargo build --release --all-targets ``` . ======= . ### Example with a version built from sources . ```bash $ zenohd --version The zenoh router v0.11.0-dev-37-g9f7a37ee built with rustc 1.72.0 (5680fa18f 2023-08-23) ``` . Here, `zenohd` version is `v0.11.0-dev-37-g9f7a37ee` where: . - `v0.11.0-dev` means it's a development version for the future `v0.11.0` release - `-37`means there have been 37 commits since the tag `0.11.0-dev` marking the begining of developments for this future version - `-g9f7a37ee` indicates the commit number of sources: `9f7a37ee` (the `g` prefix just meaning "git" shall be ignored) . And it has been built with the rustc version `1.72.0`. Install and use this same toolchain with the following command: . ```bash rustup default 1.72.0 ``` . And update all the `zenoh` dependencies in `Cargo.lock` to use the commit id: . ```bash cargo update -p zenoh --precise 9f7a37ee ``` Package: zenoh-backend-influxdb-v1 Version: 1.3.2 Architecture: amd64 Maintainer: zenoh-dev@eclipse.org Installed-Size: 8057 Depends: zenoh-plugin-storage-manager (=1.3.2) Filename: 1.3.2/zenoh-backend-influxdb-v1_1.3.2_amd64.deb Size: 2076660 MD5sum: ae98884d3aa95029c0430aa48b3f52f5 SHA1: e6985e8a6b3a79b59308caf794f02f1680275673 SHA256: b243d22b7b1190d894940fdd8ab02cf425dd88954365519d735404f243d1d79c Section: net Priority: optional Homepage: http://zenoh.io Description: Backend for Zenoh using InfluxDB v1.x .

However, influxdb 2.x doesn't support this feature. . ### Behaviour on GET . On GET operations, by default the storage returns only the latest point for each key/measurement. This is to be coherent with other backends technologies that only store 1 value per-key. If you want to get time-series as a result of a GET operation, you need to specify a time range via the `"_time"`argument in your [Selector](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap/tree/main/rfcs/ALL/Selectors). . :note: Right now, wild chunks like * and ** works only for Influxdb 1.x. This is due to lack of support in Influxdb 2.x API for our approach. . Examples of selectors: . ```bash # get the complete time-series /demo/example/**?_time=[..] . # get points within a fixed date interval /demo/example/influxdb/**?_time=[2020-01-01T00:00:00Z..2020-01-02T12:00:00.000000000Z] . # get points within a relative date interval /demo/example/influxdb/**?_time=[now(-2d)..now(-1d)] ``` . See the [`"_time"` RFC](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap/blob/main/rfcs/ALL/Selectors/_time.md) for a complete description of the time range format . ------------------------------- . ## How to install it . To install the latest release of this backend library, you can do as follows: . ### Manual installation (all platforms) . All release packages can be downloaded from: . - [https://download.eclipse.org/zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/latest/](https://download.eclipse.org/zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/latest/) . Each subdirectory has the name of the Rust target. See the platforms each target corresponds to on [https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/rustc/platform-support.html](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/rustc/platform-support.html) . Choose your platform and download the `.zip` file. Unzip it in the same directory than `zenohd` or to any directory where it can find the backend library (e.g. /usr/lib or ~/.zenoh/lib) . ### Linux Debian . Add Eclipse Zenoh private repository to the sources list, and install the `zenoh-backend-influxdb-v1` package: . ```bash echo "deb [trusted=yes] https://download.eclipse.org/zenoh/debian-repo/ /" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list > /dev/null sudo apt update sudo apt install zenoh-backend-influxdb-v1 ``` . ------------------------------- . ## How to build it . > :warning: **WARNING** :warning: : Zenoh and its ecosystem are under active development. When you build from git, make sure you also build from git any other Zenoh repository you plan to use (e.g. binding, plugin, backend, etc.). It may happen that some changes in git are not compatible with the most recent packaged Zenoh release (e.g. deb, docker, pip). We put particular effort in mantaining compatibility between the various git repositories in the Zenoh project. . At first, install [Cargo and Rust](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/getting-started/installation.html). If you already have the Rust toolchain installed, make sure it is up-to-date with: . ```bash rustup update ``` . > :warning: **WARNING** :warning: : As Rust doesn't have a stable ABI, the backend library should be built with the exact same Rust version than `zenohd`, and using for `zenoh` dependency the same version (or commit number) than 'zenohd'. Otherwise, incompatibilities in memory mapping of shared types between `zenohd` and the library can lead to a `"SIGSEV"` crash. . To know the Rust version you're `zenohd` has been built with, use the `--version` option. . ### Example with a downloaded version . ```bash $ zenohd --version The zenoh router v0.10.0-rc built with rustc 1.72.0 (5680fa18f 2023-08-23) ``` . Here, `zenohd` is version `0.10.0-rc` has been built with the rustc version `1.72.0`. Install and use this same toolchain with the following command: . ```bash rustup default 1.72.0 ``` . And edit the update `Cargo.toml` file to make all the `zenoh` dependencies to use the same version number: . ```toml zenoh = { version = "0.10.0-rc", features = [ "unstable" ] } ``` . Then build library only for the v1 backend, you have to specify it in the build command: . ```bash cargo build --release --all-targets -p zenoh-backend-influxdb-v1 ``` . You can build both the versions as well: . ```bash cargo build --release --all-targets ``` . ======= . ### Example with a version built from sources . ```bash $ zenohd --version The zenoh router v0.11.0-dev-37-g9f7a37ee built with rustc 1.72.0 (5680fa18f 2023-08-23) ``` . Here, `zenohd` version is `v0.11.0-dev-37-g9f7a37ee` where: . - `v0.11.0-dev` means it's a development version for the future `v0.11.0` release - `-37`means there have been 37 commits since the tag `0.11.0-dev` marking the begining of developments for this future version - `-g9f7a37ee` indicates the commit number of sources: `9f7a37ee` (the `g` prefix just meaning "git" shall be ignored) . And it has been built with the rustc version `1.72.0`. Install and use this same toolchain with the following command: . ```bash rustup default 1.72.0 ``` . And update all the `zenoh` dependencies in `Cargo.lock` to use the commit id: . ```bash cargo update -p zenoh --precise 9f7a37ee ``` Package: zenoh-backend-influxdb-v1 Version: 1.3.2 Architecture: armhf Maintainer: zenoh-dev@eclipse.org Installed-Size: 7018 Depends: zenoh-plugin-storage-manager (=1.3.2) Filename: 1.3.2/zenoh-backend-influxdb-v1_1.3.2_armhf.deb Size: 1722712 MD5sum: 311377b708af7ea4beb541ece4767988 SHA1: 15ec7b9d3ad103fd9b055521cbe2c6d8e3bc95ce SHA256: 19c4b83862295030c2f925f524ab02001c10f478c7264ae275ca53ae9b10bd2e Section: net Priority: optional Homepage: http://zenoh.io Description: Backend for Zenoh using InfluxDB v1.x .

The Eclipse Zenoh: Zero Overhead Pub/sub, Store/Query and Compute. . Zenoh (pronounce _/zeno/_) unifies data in motion, data at rest and computations. It carefully blends traditional pub/sub with geo-distributed storages, queries and computations, while retaining a level of time and space efficiency that is well beyond any of the mainstream stacks. . Check the website [zenoh.io](http://zenoh.io) and the [roadmap](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap) for more detailed information. . ------------------------------- . # InfluxDB backend . In Zenoh a backend is a storage technology (such as DBMS, time-series database, file system...) alowing to store the keys/values publications made via zenoh and return them on queries. See the [zenoh documentation](http://zenoh.io/docs/manual/backends/) for more details. . This backend relies on an [InfluxDB](https://www.influxdata.com/products/influxdb/) server to implement the storages. Its library name (without OS specific prefix and extension) that zenoh will rely on to find it and load it is **`zenoh_backend_influxdb`**. . :point_right: **Install latest release:** see [below](#how-to-install-it) . :point_right: **Build "main" branch:** see [below](#how-to-build-it) . :note: This has full support for Influxdb 1.x and partial support for InfluxDB 2.x. . ------------------------------- . ## :warning: Documentation for previous 0.5 versions . The following documentation related to the version currently in development in "main" branch: 0.6.x. . For previous versions see the README and code of the corresponding tagged version: . - [0.5.0-beta.9](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/tree/0.5.0-beta.9#readme) - [0.5.0-beta.8](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/tree/0.5.0-beta.8#readme) . ------------------------------- . ## **Examples of usage** . Prerequisites: . - You have a zenoh router (`zenohd`) installed, and the `zenoh_backend_influxdb` library file is available in `~/.zenoh/lib`. - You have an InfluxDB service running and listening on `http://localhost:8086` . You can setup storages either at zenoh router startup via a configuration file, either at runtime via the zenoh admin space, using for instance the REST API. . ### **Setup via a JSON5 configuration file** . - Create a `zenoh.json5` configuration file containing for example: . ```json5 { plugins: { // configuration of "storage_manager" plugin: storage_manager: { volumes: { // configuration of a "influxdb" volume (the "zenoh_backend_influxdb" backend library will be loaded at startup) //this should be named influxdb for v1 influxdb: { // URL to the InfluxDB service url: "http://localhost:8086", private: { //For Influxdb v1.x: // If needed: InfluxDB credentials, preferably admin for databases creation and drop //username: "admin", //password: "password" . //For Influxdb v2.x: // If needed: InfluxDB credentials, preferably ALL-ACCESS for databases creation and drop //if not ALL-ACCESS then atleast with authorization to create/delete buckets //Note: this should not be left empty for the plugin to work; if you have no admin creds, you can copy the user creds instead // token: "access token" . } } }, storages: { // configuration of a "demo" storage using the "influxdb" volume demo: { // the key expression this storage will subscribes to key_expr: "demo/example/**", // this prefix will be stripped from the received key when converting to database key. // i.e.: "demo/example/a/b" will be stored as "a/b" // this option is optional strip_prefix: "demo/example", volume: { //this will be influxdb for v1 (exactly the same name as in volumes section) id: "influxdb", // the database/bucket name within InfluxDB db: "zenoh_example", // if the database doesn't exist, create it create_db: false, // strategy on storage closure on_closure: "do_nothing", private: { . //For Influxdb v1.x: //Required: InfluxDB credentials to read-write on the bucket //username: "admin", //password: "password" . //For Influxdb v2.x: //Required //InfluxDB credentials, with read/write privileges for the database //this is a token with either: //a.) Read-Write access to the existing DB named above in the config (case where db/bucket already exists) //b.) Read-write access to ALL buckets in the organization so it can access the new bucket created by zenoh; //(case where a new db/bucket has to be created) // token: "user access token" } } } } }, // Optionally, add the REST plugin rest: { http_port: 8000 } } } ``` . - Run the zenoh router with: `zenohd -c zenoh.json5` . ### **Setup at runtime via `curl` commands on the admin space** . - Run the zenoh router, with write permissions to its admin space and with the REST plugin: `zenohd --adminspace-permissions=rw --rest-http-port=8000` - Add the "influxdb" volume (the "zenoh_backend_fs" library will be loaded), connected to InfluxDB service on [http://localhost:8086](http://localhost:8086): `curl -X PUT -H 'content-type:application/json' -d '{url:"http://localhost:8086"}' http://localhost:8000/@/router/local/config/plugins/storage_manager/volumes/influxdb` - Add the "demo" storage using the "influxdb" volume: `curl -X PUT -H 'content-type:application/json' -d '{key_expr:"demo/example/**",volume:{id:"influxdb",db:"zenoh_example",create_db:true}}' http://localhost:8000/@/router/local/config/plugins/storage_manager/storages/demo` . ### **Tests using the REST API** . Using `curl` to publish and query keys/values, you can: . ```bash # Put some values at different time intervals curl -X PUT -d "TEST-1" http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test curl -X PUT -d "TEST-2" http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test curl -X PUT -d "TEST-3" http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test . # Retrive them as a time serie where '_time=[..]' means "infinite time range" curl -g 'http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test?_time=[..]' ``` . . ------------------------------- . ## Volume configuration . InfluxDB-backed volumes need some configuration to work: . - **`"url"`** (**required**) : a URL to the InfluxDB service. Example: `http://localhost:8086` . ### admin level credentials . #### for v1.x . - **`"username"`** (optional) : an [InfluxDB admin](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/administration/authentication_and_authorization/#admin-users) user name. It will be used for creation of databases, granting read/write privileges of databases mapped to storages and dropping of databases and measurements. . - **`"password"`** (optional) : the admin user's password. . Both `username` and `password` should be hidden behind a `private` object, as shown in the example [above](#setup-via-a-json5-configuration-file). In general, if you wish for a part of the configuration to be hidden when configuration is queried, you should hide it behind a `private` object. . #### for v2.x . - **`"token"`** (optional) : the admin user's token. It will be used for creation and dropping of databases. In Influxdb2.x, you can use an ALL ACCESS token for this ([https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/#all-access-token](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/#all-access-token)) . The `token` should be hidden behind a `private` object, like the "username" and "password" shown in the example [above](#setup-via-a-json5-configuration-file). In general, if you wish for a part of the configuration to be hidden when configuration is queried, you should hide it behind a `private` object. . ------------------------------- . ## Volume-specific storage configuration . Storages relying on a `influxdb` backed volume may have additional configuration through the `volume` section: . - **`"db"`** (optional, string) : the InfluxDB database name the storage will map into. If not specified, a random name will be generated, and the corresponding database will be created (even if `"create_db"` is not set). . - **`"create_db"`** (optional, boolean) : create the InfluxDB database if not already existing. By default the database is not created, unless `"db"` property is not specified. _(the value doesn't matter, only the property existence is checked)_ . - **`"on_closure"`** (optional, string) : the strategy to use when the Storage is removed. There are 3 options: - _unset_ or `"do_nothing"`: the database remains untouched (this is the default behaviour) - `"drop_db"`: the database is dropped (i.e. removed) - `"drop_series"`: all the series (measurements) are dropped and the database remains empty. . - **`"token"`** (optional, string) : an InfluxDB access token, usually [non-admin](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/#readwrite-token). It will be used to read/write points in the database on GET/PUT/DELETE zenoh operations. . ------------------------------- . ## **Behaviour of the backend** . ### Mapping to InfluxDB concepts . Each **storage** will map to an InfluxDB **database**. Each **key** to store will map to an InfluxDB [**measurement**](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/concepts/key_concepts/#measurement) named with the key stripped from the `"strip_prefix"` property (see below). Each **key/value** put into the storage will map to an InfluxDB [**point**](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/concepts/key_concepts/#point) reusing the timestamp set by zenoh (but with a precision of nanoseconds). The fileds and tags of the point is are the following: . - `"kind"` tag: the zenoh change kind (`"PUT"` for a value that have been put, or `"DEL"` to mark the deletion of the key) - `"timestamp"` field: the original zenoh timestamp - `"encoding"` field: the value's encoding flag - `"base64"` field: a boolean indicating if the value is encoded in base64 - `"value"`field: the value as a string, possibly encoded in base64 for binary values. . ### Behaviour on deletion . On deletion of a key, all points with a timestamp before the deletion message are deleted. A point with `"kind"="DEL`" is inserted (to avoid re-insertion of points with an older timestamp in case of un-ordered messages). In v1, zenoh used to drop the measurement corresponding to the deleted key is dropped if it still contains no points after 5secs. However, influxdb 2.x doesn't support this feature. . ### Behaviour on GET . On GET operations, by default the storage returns only the latest point for each key/measurement. This is to be coherent with other backends technologies that only store 1 value per-key. If you want to get time-series as a result of a GET operation, you need to specify a time range via the `"_time"`argument in your [Selector](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap/tree/main/rfcs/ALL/Selectors). . :note: Right now, wild chunks like * and ** works only for Influxdb 1.x. This is due to lack of support in Influxdb 2.x API for our approach. . Examples of selectors: . ```bash # get the complete time-series /demo/example/**?_time=[..] . # get points within a fixed date interval /demo/example/influxdb/**?_time=[2020-01-01T00:00:00Z..2020-01-02T12:00:00.000000000Z] . # get points within a relative date interval /demo/example/influxdb/**?_time=[now(-2d)..now(-1d)] ``` . See the [`"_time"` RFC](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap/blob/main/rfcs/ALL/Selectors/_time.md) for a complete description of the time range format . ------------------------------- . ## How to install it .

Read-write access to ALL buckets in the organization so it can access the new bucket created by zenoh; //(case where a new db/bucket has to be created) // token: "user access token" } } } } }, // Optionally, add the REST plugin rest: { http_port: 8000 } } } ``` . - Run the zenoh router with: `zenohd -c zenoh.json5` . ### **Setup at runtime via `curl` commands on the admin space** . - Run the zenoh router, with write permissions to its admin space and with the REST plugin: `zenohd --adminspace-permissions=rw --rest-http-port=8000` - Add the "influxdb" volume (the "zenoh_backend_fs" library will be loaded), connected to InfluxDB service on [http://localhost:8086](http://localhost:8086): `curl -X PUT -H 'content-type:application/json' -d '{url:"http://localhost:8086"}' http://localhost:8000/@/router/local/config/plugins/storage_manager/volumes/influxdb` - Add the "demo" storage using the "influxdb" volume: `curl -X PUT -H 'content-type:application/json' -d '{key_expr:"demo/example/**",volume:{id:"influxdb",db:"zenoh_example",create_db:true}}' http://localhost:8000/@/router/local/config/plugins/storage_manager/storages/demo` . ### **Tests using the REST API** . Using `curl` to publish and query keys/values, you can: . ```bash # Put some values at different time intervals curl -X PUT -d "TEST-1" http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test curl -X PUT -d "TEST-2" http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test curl -X PUT -d "TEST-3" http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test . # Retrive them as a time serie where '_time=[..]' means "infinite time range" curl -g 'http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test?_time=[..]' ``` . . ------------------------------- . ## Volume configuration . InfluxDB-backed volumes need some configuration to work: . - **`"url"`** (**required**) : a URL to the InfluxDB service. Example: `http://localhost:8086` . ### admin level credentials . #### for v1.x . - **`"username"`** (optional) : an [InfluxDB admin](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/administration/authentication_and_authorization/#admin-users) user name. It will be used for creation of databases, granting read/write privileges of databases mapped to storages and dropping of databases and measurements. . - **`"password"`** (optional) : the admin user's password. . Both `username` and `password` should be hidden behind a `private` object, as shown in the example [above](#setup-via-a-json5-configuration-file). In general, if you wish for a part of the configuration to be hidden when configuration is queried, you should hide it behind a `private` object. . #### for v2.x . - **`"token"`** (optional) : the admin user's token. It will be used for creation and dropping of databases. In Influxdb2.x, you can use an ALL ACCESS token for this ([https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/#all-access-token](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/#all-access-token)) . The `token` should be hidden behind a `private` object, like the "username" and "password" shown in the example [above](#setup-via-a-json5-configuration-file). In general, if you wish for a part of the configuration to be hidden when configuration is queried, you should hide it behind a `private` object. . ------------------------------- . ## Volume-specific storage configuration . Storages relying on a `influxdb` backed volume may have additional configuration through the `volume` section: . - **`"db"`** (optional, string) : the InfluxDB database name the storage will map into. If not specified, a random name will be generated, and the corresponding database will be created (even if `"create_db"` is not set). . - **`"create_db"`** (optional, boolean) : create the InfluxDB database if not already existing. By default the database is not created, unless `"db"` property is not specified. _(the value doesn't matter, only the property existence is checked)_ . - **`"on_closure"`** (optional, string) : the strategy to use when the Storage is removed. There are 3 options: - _unset_ or `"do_nothing"`: the database remains untouched (this is the default behaviour) - `"drop_db"`: the database is dropped (i.e. removed) - `"drop_series"`: all the series (measurements) are dropped and the database remains empty. . - **`"token"`** (optional, string) : an InfluxDB access token, usually [non-admin](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/#readwrite-token). It will be used to read/write points in the database on GET/PUT/DELETE zenoh operations. . ------------------------------- . ## **Behaviour of the backend** . ### Mapping to InfluxDB concepts . Each **storage** will map to an InfluxDB **database**. Each **key** to store will map to an InfluxDB [**measurement**](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/concepts/key_concepts/#measurement) named with the key stripped from the `"strip_prefix"` property (see below). Each **key/value** put into the storage will map to an InfluxDB [**point**](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/concepts/key_concepts/#point) reusing the timestamp set by zenoh (but with a precision of nanoseconds). The fileds and tags of the point is are the following: . - `"kind"` tag: the zenoh change kind (`"PUT"` for a value that have been put, or `"DEL"` to mark the deletion of the key) - `"timestamp"` field: the original zenoh timestamp - `"encoding"` field: the value's encoding flag - `"base64"` field: a boolean indicating if the value is encoded in base64 - `"value"`field: the value as a string, possibly encoded in base64 for binary values. . ### Behaviour on deletion . On deletion of a key, all points with a timestamp before the deletion message are deleted. A point with `"kind"="DEL`" is inserted (to avoid re-insertion of points with an older timestamp in case of un-ordered messages). In v1, zenoh used to drop the measurement corresponding to the deleted key is dropped if it still contains no points after 5secs. However, influxdb 2.x doesn't support this feature. . ### Behaviour on GET . On GET operations, by default the storage returns only the latest point for each key/measurement. This is to be coherent with other backends technologies that only store 1 value per-key. If you want to get time-series as a result of a GET operation, you need to specify a time range via the `"_time"`argument in your [Selector](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap/tree/main/rfcs/ALL/Selectors). . :note: Right now, wild chunks like * and ** works only for Influxdb 1.x. This is due to lack of support in Influxdb 2.x API for our approach. . Examples of selectors: . ```bash # get the complete time-series /demo/example/**?_time=[..] . # get points within a fixed date interval /demo/example/influxdb/**?_time=[2020-01-01T00:00:00Z..2020-01-02T12:00:00.000000000Z] . # get points within a relative date interval /demo/example/influxdb/**?_time=[now(-2d)..now(-1d)] ``` . See the [`"_time"` RFC](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap/blob/main/rfcs/ALL/Selectors/_time.md) for a complete description of the time range format . ------------------------------- . ## How to install it . To install the latest release of this backend library, you can do as follows: . ### Manual installation (all platforms) . All release packages can be downloaded from: . - [https://download.eclipse.org/zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/latest/](https://download.eclipse.org/zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/latest/) . Each subdirectory has the name of the Rust target. See the platforms each target corresponds to on [https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/rustc/platform-support.html](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/rustc/platform-support.html) . Choose your platform and download the `.zip` file. Unzip it in the same directory than `zenohd` or to any directory where it can find the backend library (e.g. /usr/lib or ~/.zenoh/lib) . ### Linux Debian . Add Eclipse Zenoh private repository to the sources list, and install the `zenoh-backend-influxdb-v1` package: . ```bash echo "deb [trusted=yes] https://download.eclipse.org/zenoh/debian-repo/ /" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list > /dev/null sudo apt update sudo apt install zenoh-backend-influxdb-v1 ``` . ------------------------------- . ## How to build it . > :warning: **WARNING** :warning: : Zenoh and its ecosystem are under active development. When you build from git, make sure you also build from git any other Zenoh repository you plan to use (e.g. binding, plugin, backend, etc.). It may happen that some changes in git are not compatible with the most recent packaged Zenoh release (e.g. deb, docker, pip). We put particular effort in mantaining compatibility between the various git repositories in the Zenoh project. . At first, install [Cargo and Rust](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/getting-started/installation.html). If you already have the Rust toolchain installed, make sure it is up-to-date with: . ```bash rustup update ``` . > :warning: **WARNING** :warning: : As Rust doesn't have a stable ABI, the backend library should be built with the exact same Rust version than `zenohd`, and using for `zenoh` dependency the same version (or commit number) than 'zenohd'. Otherwise, incompatibilities in memory mapping of shared types between `zenohd` and the library can lead to a `"SIGSEV"` crash. . To know the Rust version you're `zenohd` has been built with, use the `--version` option. . ### Example with a downloaded version . ```bash $ zenohd --version The zenoh router v0.10.0-rc built with rustc 1.72.0 (5680fa18f 2023-08-23) ``` . Here, `zenohd` is version `0.10.0-rc` has been built with the rustc version `1.72.0`. Install and use this same toolchain with the following command: . ```bash rustup default 1.72.0 ``` . And edit the update `Cargo.toml` file to make all the `zenoh` dependencies to use the same version number: . ```toml zenoh = { version = "0.10.0-rc", features = [ "unstable" ] } ``` . Then build library only for the v1 backend, you have to specify it in the build command: . ```bash cargo build --release --all-targets -p zenoh-backend-influxdb-v1 ``` . You can build both the versions as well: . ```bash cargo build --release --all-targets ``` . ======= . ### Example with a version built from sources . ```bash $ zenohd --version The zenoh router v0.11.0-dev-37-g9f7a37ee built with rustc 1.72.0 (5680fa18f 2023-08-23) ``` . Here, `zenohd` version is `v0.11.0-dev-37-g9f7a37ee` where: . - `v0.11.0-dev` means it's a development version for the future `v0.11.0` release - `-37`means there have been 37 commits since the tag `0.11.0-dev` marking the begining of developments for this future version - `-g9f7a37ee` indicates the commit number of sources: `9f7a37ee` (the `g` prefix just meaning "git" shall be ignored) . And it has been built with the rustc version `1.72.0`. Install and use this same toolchain with the following command: . ```bash rustup default 1.72.0 ``` . And update all the `zenoh` dependencies in `Cargo.lock` to use the commit id: . ```bash cargo update -p zenoh --precise 9f7a37ee ``` Package: zenoh-backend-influxdb-v2 Version: 1.3.2 Architecture: armhf Maintainer: zenoh-dev@eclipse.org Installed-Size: 9523 Depends: zenoh-plugin-storage-manager (=1.3.2) Filename: 1.3.2/zenoh-backend-influxdb-v2_1.3.2_armhf.deb Size: 2415116 MD5sum: 48573b35622388883b4c26a539f84626 SHA1: c752436fe3fc79625992216421cad0eda767fa3b SHA256: a9cad1933e326820f51d082e55a8e09b9a4d9ec5accae534522e7c62c5c3079a Section: net Priority: optional Homepage: http://zenoh.io Description: Backend for Zenoh using InfluxDB v2.x .

The Eclipse Zenoh: Zero Overhead Pub/sub, Store/Query and Compute. . Zenoh (pronounce _/zeno/_) unifies data in motion, data at rest and computations. It carefully blends traditional pub/sub with geo-distributed storages, queries and computations, while retaining a level of time and space efficiency that is well beyond any of the mainstream stacks. . Check the website [zenoh.io](http://zenoh.io) and the [roadmap](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap) for more detailed information. . ------------------------------- . # InfluxDB backend . In Zenoh a backend is a storage technology (such as DBMS, time-series database, file system...) alowing to store the keys/values publications made via zenoh and return them on queries. See the [zenoh documentation](http://zenoh.io/docs/manual/backends/) for more details. . This backend relies on an [InfluxDB](https://www.influxdata.com/products/influxdb/) server to implement the storages. Its library name (without OS specific prefix and extension) that zenoh will rely on to find it and load it is **`zenoh_backend_influxdb2`**. . :point_right: **Install latest release:** see [below](#how-to-install-it) . :point_right: **Build "main" branch:** see [below](#how-to-build-it) . :note: This provides extensive support for InfluxDB 2.x. . ------------------------------- . ## :warning: Documentation for previous 0.5 versions . The following documentation related to the version currently in development in "main" branch: 0.6.x. . For previous versions see the README and code of the corresponding tagged version: . - [0.5.0-beta.9](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/tree/0.5.0-beta.9#readme) - [0.5.0-beta.8](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/tree/0.5.0-beta.8#readme) . ------------------------------- . ## **Examples of usage** . Prerequisites: . - You have a zenoh router (`zenohd`) installed, and the `zenoh_backend_influxdb2` library file is available in `~/.zenoh/lib`. - You have an InfluxDB service running and listening on `http://localhost:8086` . You can setup storages either at zenoh router startup via a configuration file, either at runtime via the zenoh admin space, using for instance the REST API. . ### **Setup via a JSON5 configuration file** . - Create a `zenoh.json5` configuration file containing for example: . ```json5 { plugins: { // configuration of "storage_manager" plugin: storage_manager: { volumes: { // configuration of a "influxdb2" volume (the "zenoh_backend_influxdb2" backend library will be loaded at startup) //this should be named influxdb2 for v2 influxdb2: { // URL to the InfluxDB service url: "http://localhost:8086/api/v2/", private: { // If needed: InfluxDB credentials, preferably ALL-ACCESS for databases creation and drop //if not ALL-ACCESS then atleast with authorization to create/delete buckets //Note: this should not be left empty for the plugin to work; if you have no admin creds, you can copy the user creds instead // org_id: "organization ID", // token: "admin access token" } } }, storages: { // configuration of a "demo" storage using the "influxdb2" volume demo: { // the key expression this storage will subscribes to key_expr: "demo/example/**", // this prefix will be stripped from the received key when converting to database key. // i.e.: "demo/example/a/b" will be stored as "a/b" // this option is optional strip_prefix: "demo/example", volume: { //this will be influxdb2 for v2 (exactly the same name as in volumes section) id: "influxdb2", // the database name within InfluxDB (not the db ID) db: "zenoh_example", // if the database doesn't exist, create it create_db: true, // strategy on storage closure on_closure: "drop_db", private: { //required // If needed: InfluxDB credentials, with read/write privileges for the database //this will be the same as for admin // org_id: "organization ID", //this is any token with either: //a.) Read-Write access to the existing DB mentioned above in the config //b.) Read-write access to ALL buckets in the organization so it can access the new bucket created by zenoh // token: "user access token" } } } } }, // Optionally, add the REST plugin rest: { http_port: 8000 } } } ``` . - Run the zenoh router with: `zenohd -c zenoh.json5` . ### **Setup at runtime via `curl` commands on the admin space** . - Run the zenoh router, with write permissions to its admin space and with the REST plugin: `zenohd --adminspace-permissions=rw --rest-http-port=8000` - Add the "influxdb2" volume (the "zenoh_backend_fs" library will be loaded), connected to InfluxDB service on [http://localhost:8086](http://localhost:8086): `curl -X PUT -H 'content-type:application/json' -d '{url:"http://localhost:8086/api/v2"}' http://localhost:8000/@/router/local/config/plugins/storage_manager/volumes/influxdb2` - Add the "demo" storage using the "influxdb2" volume: `curl -X PUT -H 'content-type:application/json' -d '{key_expr:"demo/example/**",volume:{id:"influxdb2",db:"zenoh_example",create_db:true}}' http://localhost:8000/@/router/local/config/plugins/storage_manager/storages/demo` . ### **Tests using the REST API** . Using `curl` to publish and query keys/values, you can: . ```bash # Put some values at different time intervals curl -X PUT -d "TEST-1" http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test curl -X PUT -d "TEST-2" http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test curl -X PUT -d "TEST-3" http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test . # Retrive them as a time serie where '_time=[..]' means "infinite time range" curl -g 'http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test?_time=[..]' ``` . . ------------------------------- . ## Volume configuration . InfluxDB-backed volumes need some configuration to work: . - **`"url"`** (**required**) : a URL to the InfluxDB service. Example: `http://localhost:8086` . - **`"org_id"`** (optional) : an [InfluxDB organizations](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/organizations/) organization ID. . - **`"token"`** (optional) : the admin user's token. It will be used for creation of databases, granting read/write privileges of databases mapped to storages and dropping of databases and measurements. In Influxdb2.x, you can use an ALL ACCESS token for this ([https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/#all-access-token](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/#all-access-token)) . Both `org_id` and `token` should be hidden behind a behind a `private` object, as shown in the example [above](#setup-via-a-json5-configuration-file). In general, if you wish for a part of the configuration to be hidden when configuration is queried, you should hide it behind a `private` object. . ------------------------------- . ## Volume-specific storage configuration . Storages relying on a `influxdb2` backed volume may have additional configuration through the `volume` section: . - **`"db"`** (optional, string) : the InfluxDB database name the storage will map into. If not specified, a random name will be generated, and the corresponding database will be created (even if `"create_db"` is not set). . - **`"create_db"`** (optional, boolean) : create the InfluxDB database if not already existing. By default the database is not created, unless `"db"` property is not specified. _(the value doesn't matter, only the property existence is checked)_ . - **`"on_closure"`** (optional, string) : the strategy to use when the Storage is removed. There are 3 options: - _unset_ or `"do_nothing"`: the database remains untouched (this is the default behaviour) - `"drop_db"`: the database is dropped (i.e. removed) - `"drop_series"`: all the series (measurements) are dropped and the database remains empty. This is currently not supported in v2. . - **`"org_id"`** (optional, string) :the user's organization. It should be same as the admin's organization. . - **`"token"`** (optional, string) : an InfluxDB access token, usually [non-admin](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/#readwrite-token). It will be used to read/write points in the database on GET/PUT/DELETE zenoh operations. . ------------------------------- . ## **Behaviour of the backend** . ### Mapping to InfluxDB concepts . Each **storage** will map to an InfluxDB **database**. Each **key** to store will map to an InfluxDB [**measurement**](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/concepts/key_concepts/#measurement) named with the key stripped from the `"strip_prefix"` property (see below). Each **key/value** put into the storage will map to an InfluxDB [**point**](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/concepts/key_concepts/#point) reusing the timestamp set by zenoh (but with a precision of nanoseconds). The fileds and tags of the point is are the following: . - `"kind"` tag: the zenoh change kind (`"PUT"` for a value that have been put, or `"DEL"` to mark the deletion of the key) - `"timestamp"` field: the original zenoh timestamp - `"encoding"` field: the value's encoding flag - `"base64"` field: a boolean indicating if the value is encoded in base64 - `"value"`field: the value as a string, possibly encoded in base64 for binary values. . ### Behaviour on deletion . On deletion of a key, all points with a timestamp before the deletion message are deleted. A point with `"kind"="DEL`" is inserted (to avoid re-insertion of points with an older timestamp in case of un-ordered messages).

This is due to lack of support in Influxdb 2.x API for our approach. . Examples of selectors: . ```bash # get the complete time-series /demo/example/**?_time=[..] . # get points within a fixed date interval /demo/example/influxdb/**?_time=[2020-01-01T00:00:00Z..2020-01-02T12:00:00.000000000Z] . # get points within a relative date interval /demo/example/influxdb/**?_time=[now(-2d)..now(-1d)] ``` .

Here, `zenohd` version is `v0.11.0-dev-37-g9f7a37ee` where: . - `v0.11.0-dev` means it's a development version for the future `v0.11.0` release - `-37`means there have been 37 commits since the tag `0.11.0-dev` marking the begining of developments for this future version - `-g9f7a37ee` indicates the commit number of sources: `9f7a37ee` (the `g` prefix just meaning "git" shall be ignored) . And it has been built with the rustc version `1.72.0`. Install and use this same toolchain with the following command: . ```bash rustup default 1.72.0 ``` . And update all the `zenoh` dependencies in `Cargo.lock` to use the commit id: . ```bash cargo update -p zenoh --precise 9f7a37ee ``` Package: zenoh-backend-influxdb-v2 Version: 1.3.2 Architecture: arm64 Maintainer: zenoh-dev@eclipse.org Installed-Size: 10733 Depends: zenoh-plugin-storage-manager (=1.3.2) Filename: 1.3.2/zenoh-backend-influxdb-v2_1.3.2_arm64.deb Size: 2603404 MD5sum: ed042586ce6fe606cf75a6e368dcbcb8 SHA1: e8f8f56b4bb87ed47b6eb20c33ce19aa0353fae1 SHA256: 05e168ee2ce1a64abf93a1804070db76bbbcfe14f4731150a7bb88a93812880c Section: net Priority: optional Homepage: http://zenoh.io Description: Backend for Zenoh using InfluxDB v2.x .

The Eclipse Zenoh: Zero Overhead Pub/sub, Store/Query and Compute. . Zenoh (pronounce _/zeno/_) unifies data in motion, data at rest and computations. It carefully blends traditional pub/sub with geo-distributed storages, queries and computations, while retaining a level of time and space efficiency that is well beyond any of the mainstream stacks. . Check the website [zenoh.io](http://zenoh.io) and the [roadmap](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap) for more detailed information. . ------------------------------- . # InfluxDB backend . In Zenoh a backend is a storage technology (such as DBMS, time-series database, file system...) alowing to store the keys/values publications made via zenoh and return them on queries. See the [zenoh documentation](http://zenoh.io/docs/manual/backends/) for more details. . This backend relies on an [InfluxDB](https://www.influxdata.com/products/influxdb/) server to implement the storages. Its library name (without OS specific prefix and extension) that zenoh will rely on to find it and load it is **`zenoh_backend_influxdb2`**. . :point_right: **Install latest release:** see [below](#how-to-install-it) . :point_right: **Build "main" branch:** see [below](#how-to-build-it) . :note: This provides extensive support for InfluxDB 2.x. . ------------------------------- . ## :warning: Documentation for previous 0.5 versions . The following documentation related to the version currently in development in "main" branch: 0.6.x. . For previous versions see the README and code of the corresponding tagged version: . - [0.5.0-beta.9](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/tree/0.5.0-beta.9#readme) - [0.5.0-beta.8](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/tree/0.5.0-beta.8#readme) . ------------------------------- . ## **Examples of usage** . Prerequisites: . - You have a zenoh router (`zenohd`) installed, and the `zenoh_backend_influxdb2` library file is available in `~/.zenoh/lib`. - You have an InfluxDB service running and listening on `http://localhost:8086` . You can setup storages either at zenoh router startup via a configuration file, either at runtime via the zenoh admin space, using for instance the REST API. . ### **Setup via a JSON5 configuration file** . - Create a `zenoh.json5` configuration file containing for example: . ```json5 { plugins: { // configuration of "storage_manager" plugin: storage_manager: { volumes: { // configuration of a "influxdb2" volume (the "zenoh_backend_influxdb2" backend library will be loaded at startup) //this should be named influxdb2 for v2 influxdb2: { // URL to the InfluxDB service url: "http://localhost:8086/api/v2/", private: { // If needed: InfluxDB credentials, preferably ALL-ACCESS for databases creation and drop //if not ALL-ACCESS then atleast with authorization to create/delete buckets //Note: this should not be left empty for the plugin to work; if you have no admin creds, you can copy the user creds instead // org_id: "organization ID", // token: "admin access token" } } }, storages: { // configuration of a "demo" storage using the "influxdb2" volume demo: { // the key expression this storage will subscribes to key_expr: "demo/example/**", // this prefix will be stripped from the received key when converting to database key. // i.e.: "demo/example/a/b" will be stored as "a/b" // this option is optional strip_prefix: "demo/example", volume: { //this will be influxdb2 for v2 (exactly the same name as in volumes section) id: "influxdb2", // the database name within InfluxDB (not the db ID) db: "zenoh_example", // if the database doesn't exist, create it create_db: true, // strategy on storage closure on_closure: "drop_db", private: { //required // If needed: InfluxDB credentials, with read/write privileges for the database //this will be the same as for admin // org_id: "organization ID", //this is any token with either: //a.) Read-Write access to the existing DB mentioned above in the config //b.) Read-write access to ALL buckets in the organization so it can access the new bucket created by zenoh // token: "user access token" } } } } }, // Optionally, add the REST plugin rest: { http_port: 8000 } } } ``` . - Run the zenoh router with: `zenohd -c zenoh.json5` . ### **Setup at runtime via `curl` commands on the admin space** . - Run the zenoh router, with write permissions to its admin space and with the REST plugin: `zenohd --adminspace-permissions=rw --rest-http-port=8000` - Add the "influxdb2" volume (the "zenoh_backend_fs" library will be loaded), connected to InfluxDB service on [http://localhost:8086](http://localhost:8086): `curl -X PUT -H 'content-type:application/json' -d '{url:"http://localhost:8086/api/v2"}' http://localhost:8000/@/router/local/config/plugins/storage_manager/volumes/influxdb2` - Add the "demo" storage using the "influxdb2" volume: `curl -X PUT -H 'content-type:application/json' -d '{key_expr:"demo/example/**",volume:{id:"influxdb2",db:"zenoh_example",create_db:true}}' http://localhost:8000/@/router/local/config/plugins/storage_manager/storages/demo` . ### **Tests using the REST API** . Using `curl` to publish and query keys/values, you can: . ```bash # Put some values at different time intervals curl -X PUT -d "TEST-1" http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test curl -X PUT -d "TEST-2" http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test curl -X PUT -d "TEST-3" http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test . # Retrive them as a time serie where '_time=[..]' means "infinite time range" curl -g 'http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test?_time=[..]' ``` . . ------------------------------- . ## Volume configuration . InfluxDB-backed volumes need some configuration to work: . - **`"url"`** (**required**) : a URL to the InfluxDB service. Example: `http://localhost:8086` . - **`"org_id"`** (optional) : an [InfluxDB organizations](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/organizations/) organization ID. . - **`"token"`** (optional) : the admin user's token. It will be used for creation of databases, granting read/write privileges of databases mapped to storages and dropping of databases and measurements. In Influxdb2.x, you can use an ALL ACCESS token for this ([https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/#all-access-token](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/#all-access-token)) . Both `org_id` and `token` should be hidden behind a behind a `private` object, as shown in the example [above](#setup-via-a-json5-configuration-file). In general, if you wish for a part of the configuration to be hidden when configuration is queried, you should hide it behind a `private` object. . ------------------------------- . ## Volume-specific storage configuration . Storages relying on a `influxdb2` backed volume may have additional configuration through the `volume` section: . - **`"db"`** (optional, string) : the InfluxDB database name the storage will map into. If not specified, a random name will be generated, and the corresponding database will be created (even if `"create_db"` is not set). . - **`"create_db"`** (optional, boolean) : create the InfluxDB database if not already existing. By default the database is not created, unless `"db"` property is not specified. _(the value doesn't matter, only the property existence is checked)_ . - **`"on_closure"`** (optional, string) : the strategy to use when the Storage is removed. There are 3 options: - _unset_ or `"do_nothing"`: the database remains untouched (this is the default behaviour) - `"drop_db"`: the database is dropped (i.e. removed) - `"drop_series"`: all the series (measurements) are dropped and the database remains empty. This is currently not supported in v2. . - **`"org_id"`** (optional, string) :the user's organization. It should be same as the admin's organization. . - **`"token"`** (optional, string) : an InfluxDB access token, usually [non-admin](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/#readwrite-token). It will be used to read/write points in the database on GET/PUT/DELETE zenoh operations. . ------------------------------- . ## **Behaviour of the backend** . ### Mapping to InfluxDB concepts . Each **storage** will map to an InfluxDB **database**. Each **key** to store will map to an InfluxDB [**measurement**](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/concepts/key_concepts/#measurement) named with the key stripped from the `"strip_prefix"` property (see below). Each **key/value** put into the storage will map to an InfluxDB [**point**](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/concepts/key_concepts/#point) reusing the timestamp set by zenoh (but with a precision of nanoseconds). The fileds and tags of the point is are the following: . - `"kind"` tag: the zenoh change kind (`"PUT"` for a value that have been put, or `"DEL"` to mark the deletion of the key) - `"timestamp"` field: the original zenoh timestamp - `"encoding"` field: the value's encoding flag - `"base64"` field: a boolean indicating if the value is encoded in base64 - `"value"`field: the value as a string, possibly encoded in base64 for binary values. . ### Behaviour on deletion . On deletion of a key, all points with a timestamp before the deletion message are deleted. A point with `"kind"="DEL`" is inserted (to avoid re-insertion of points with an older timestamp in case of un-ordered messages). In v1, zenoh used to drop the measurement corresponding to the deleted key is dropped if it still contains no points after 5secs. However, influxdb 2.x doesn't support this feature. . ### Behaviour on GET . On GET operations, by default the storage returns only the latest point for each key/measurement. This is to be coherent with other backends technologies that only store 1 value per-key. If you want to get time-series as a result of a GET operation, you need to specify a time range via the `"_time"`argument in your [Selector](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap/tree/main/rfcs/ALL/Selectors). . :note: Right now, wild chunks like * and ** do not work for Influxdb 2.x. This is due to lack of support in Influxdb 2.x API for our approach. . Examples of selectors: . ```bash # get the complete time-series /demo/example/**?_time=[..] . # get points within a fixed date interval /demo/example/influxdb/**?_time=[2020-01-01T00:00:00Z..2020-01-02T12:00:00.000000000Z] . # get points within a relative date interval /demo/example/influxdb/**?_time=[now(-2d)..now(-1d)] ``` . See the [`"_time"` RFC](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap/blob/main/rfcs/ALL/Selectors/_time.md) for a complete description of the time range format . ------------------------------- . ## How to install it . To install the latest release of this backend library, you can do as follows: . ### Manual installation (all platforms) . All release packages can be downloaded from: . - [https://download.eclipse.org/zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/latest/](https://download.eclipse.org/zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/latest/) . Each subdirectory has the name of the Rust target. See the platforms each target corresponds to on [https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/rustc/platform-support.html](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/rustc/platform-support.html) . Choose your platform and download the `.zip` file. Unzip it in the same directory than `zenohd` or to any directory where it can find the backend library (e.g. /usr/lib or ~/.zenoh/lib) . ### Linux Debian . Add Eclipse Zenoh private repository to the sources list, and install the `zenoh-backend-influxdb-v2` package: . ```bash echo "deb [trusted=yes] https://download.eclipse.org/zenoh/debian-repo/ /" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list > /dev/null sudo apt update sudo apt install zenoh-backend-influxdb-v2 ``` . ------------------------------- . ## How to build it . > :warning: **WARNING** :warning: : Zenoh and its ecosystem are under active development. When you build from git, make sure you also build from git any other Zenoh repository you plan to use (e.g. binding, plugin, backend, etc.). It may happen that some changes in git are not compatible with the most recent packaged Zenoh release (e.g. deb, docker, pip). We put particular effort in mantaining compatibility between the various git repositories in the Zenoh project. . At first, install [Cargo and Rust](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/getting-started/installation.html). If you already have the Rust toolchain installed, make sure it is up-to-date with: . ```bash rustup update ``` . > :warning: **WARNING** :warning: : As Rust doesn't have a stable ABI, the backend library should be built with the exact same Rust version than `zenohd`, and using for `zenoh` dependency the same version (or commit number) than 'zenohd'. Otherwise, incompatibilities in memory mapping of shared types between `zenohd` and the library can lead to a `"SIGSEV"` crash. . To know the Rust version you're `zenohd` has been built with, use the `--version` option. . ### Example with a downloaded version . ```bash $ zenohd --version The zenoh router v0.10.0-rc built with rustc 1.72.0 (5680fa18f 2023-08-23) ``` . Here, `zenohd` is version `0.10.0-rc` has been built with the rustc version `1.72.0`. Install and use this same toolchain with the following command: . ```bash rustup default 1.72.0 ``` . And edit the update `Cargo.toml` file to make all the `zenoh` dependencies to use the same version number: . ```toml zenoh = { version = "0.10.0-rc", features = [ "unstable" ] } ``` . Then build library only for the v2 backend, you have to specify it in the build command: . ```bash cargo build --release --all-targets -p zenoh-backend-influxdb-v2 ``` . You can build both the versions as well: . ```bash cargo build --release --all-targets ``` . ======= . ### Example with a version built from sources . ```bash $ zenohd --version The zenoh router v0.11.0-dev-37-g9f7a37ee built with rustc 1.72.0 (5680fa18f 2023-08-23) ``` . Here, `zenohd` version is `v0.11.0-dev-37-g9f7a37ee` where: . - `v0.11.0-dev` means it's a development version for the future `v0.11.0` release - `-37`means there have been 37 commits since the tag `0.11.0-dev` marking the begining of developments for this future version - `-g9f7a37ee` indicates the commit number of sources: `9f7a37ee` (the `g` prefix just meaning "git" shall be ignored) . And it has been built with the rustc version `1.72.0`. Install and use this same toolchain with the following command: . ```bash rustup default 1.72.0 ``` . And update all the `zenoh` dependencies in `Cargo.lock` to use the commit id: . ```bash cargo update -p zenoh --precise 9f7a37ee ``` Package: zenoh-backend-influxdb-v2 Version: 1.3.2 Architecture: armel Maintainer: zenoh-dev@eclipse.org Installed-Size: 9666 Depends: zenoh-plugin-storage-manager (=1.3.2) Filename: 1.3.2/zenoh-backend-influxdb-v2_1.3.2_armel.deb Size: 2397676 MD5sum: dc5db3bbf5ec0ad6448357a235c365b9 SHA1: 2582da712eb2166276eca2cdc493cb08b465290f SHA256: 532ebef9865568d13f4ddcac64ea6ff33f506adadc071a86f460b35345a32f54 Section: net Priority: optional Homepage: http://zenoh.io Description: Backend for Zenoh using InfluxDB v2.x .

The following documentation related to the version currently in development in "main" branch: 0.6.x. . For previous versions see the README and code of the corresponding tagged version: . - [0.5.0-beta.9](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/tree/0.5.0-beta.9#readme) - [0.5.0-beta.8](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/tree/0.5.0-beta.8#readme) . ------------------------------- . ## **Examples of usage** . Prerequisites: . - You have a zenoh router (`zenohd`) installed, and the `zenoh_backend_influxdb2` library file is available in `~/.zenoh/lib`. - You have an InfluxDB service running and listening on `http://localhost:8086` . You can setup storages either at zenoh router startup via a configuration file, either at runtime via the zenoh admin space, using for instance the REST API. . ### **Setup via a JSON5 configuration file** . - Create a `zenoh.json5` configuration file containing for example: . ```json5 { plugins: { // configuration of "storage_manager" plugin: storage_manager: { volumes: { // configuration of a "influxdb2" volume (the "zenoh_backend_influxdb2" backend library will be loaded at startup) //this should be named influxdb2 for v2 influxdb2: { // URL to the InfluxDB service url: "http://localhost:8086/api/v2/", private: { // If needed: InfluxDB credentials, preferably ALL-ACCESS for databases creation and drop //if not ALL-ACCESS then atleast with authorization to create/delete buckets //Note: this should not be left empty for the plugin to work; if you have no admin creds, you can copy the user creds instead // org_id: "organization ID", // token: "admin access token" } } }, storages: { // configuration of a "demo" storage using the "influxdb2" volume demo: { // the key expression this storage will subscribes to key_expr: "demo/example/**", // this prefix will be stripped from the received key when converting to database key. // i.e.: "demo/example/a/b" will be stored as "a/b" // this option is optional strip_prefix: "demo/example", volume: { //this will be influxdb2 for v2 (exactly the same name as in volumes section) id: "influxdb2", // the database name within InfluxDB (not the db ID) db: "zenoh_example", // if the database doesn't exist, create it create_db: true, // strategy on storage closure on_closure: "drop_db", private: { //required // If needed: InfluxDB credentials, with read/write privileges for the database //this will be the same as for admin // org_id: "organization ID", //this is any token with either: //a.)

Using `curl` to publish and query keys/values, you can: . ```bash # Put some values at different time intervals curl -X PUT -d "TEST-1" http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test curl -X PUT -d "TEST-2" http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test curl -X PUT -d "TEST-3" http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test . # Retrive them as a time serie where '_time=[..]' means "infinite time range" curl -g 'http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test?_time=[..]' ``` . . ------------------------------- . ## Volume configuration . InfluxDB-backed volumes need some configuration to work: . - **`"url"`** (**required**) : a URL to the InfluxDB service. Example: `http://localhost:8086` . - **`"org_id"`** (optional) : an [InfluxDB organizations](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/organizations/) organization ID. . - **`"token"`** (optional) : the admin user's token. It will be used for creation of databases, granting read/write privileges of databases mapped to storages and dropping of databases and measurements. In Influxdb2.x, you can use an ALL ACCESS token for this ([https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/#all-access-token](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/#all-access-token)) . Both `org_id` and `token` should be hidden behind a behind a `private` object, as shown in the example [above](#setup-via-a-json5-configuration-file). In general, if you wish for a part of the configuration to be hidden when configuration is queried, you should hide it behind a `private` object. . ------------------------------- . ## Volume-specific storage configuration . Storages relying on a `influxdb2` backed volume may have additional configuration through the `volume` section: . - **`"db"`** (optional, string) : the InfluxDB database name the storage will map into.

This is currently not supported in v2. . - **`"org_id"`** (optional, string) :the user's organization. It should be same as the admin's organization. . - **`"token"`** (optional, string) : an InfluxDB access token, usually [non-admin](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/#readwrite-token). It will be used to read/write points in the database on GET/PUT/DELETE zenoh operations. . ------------------------------- . ## **Behaviour of the backend** . ### Mapping to InfluxDB concepts . Each **storage** will map to an InfluxDB **database**. Each **key** to store will map to an InfluxDB [**measurement**](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/concepts/key_concepts/#measurement) named with the key stripped from the `"strip_prefix"` property (see below). Each **key/value** put into the storage will map to an InfluxDB [**point**](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/concepts/key_concepts/#point) reusing the timestamp set by zenoh (but with a precision of nanoseconds). The fileds and tags of the point is are the following: . - `"kind"` tag: the zenoh change kind (`"PUT"` for a value that have been put, or `"DEL"` to mark the deletion of the key) - `"timestamp"` field: the original zenoh timestamp - `"encoding"` field: the value's encoding flag - `"base64"` field: a boolean indicating if the value is encoded in base64 - `"value"`field: the value as a string, possibly encoded in base64 for binary values. . ### Behaviour on deletion . On deletion of a key, all points with a timestamp before the deletion message are deleted. A point with `"kind"="DEL`" is inserted (to avoid re-insertion of points with an older timestamp in case of un-ordered messages). In v1, zenoh used to drop the measurement corresponding to the deleted key is dropped if it still contains no points after 5secs. However, influxdb 2.x doesn't support this feature. . ### Behaviour on GET . On GET operations, by default the storage returns only the latest point for each key/measurement. This is to be coherent with other backends technologies that only store 1 value per-key. If you want to get time-series as a result of a GET operation, you need to specify a time range via the `"_time"`argument in your [Selector](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap/tree/main/rfcs/ALL/Selectors). . :note: Right now, wild chunks like * and ** do not work for Influxdb 2.x. This is due to lack of support in Influxdb 2.x API for our approach. . Examples of selectors: . ```bash # get the complete time-series /demo/example/**?_time=[..] . # get points within a fixed date interval /demo/example/influxdb/**?_time=[2020-01-01T00:00:00Z..2020-01-02T12:00:00.000000000Z] . # get points within a relative date interval /demo/example/influxdb/**?_time=[now(-2d)..now(-1d)] ``` . See the [`"_time"` RFC](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap/blob/main/rfcs/ALL/Selectors/_time.md) for a complete description of the time range format . ------------------------------- . ## How to install it . To install the latest release of this backend library, you can do as follows: . ### Manual installation (all platforms) . All release packages can be downloaded from: . - [https://download.eclipse.org/zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/latest/](https://download.eclipse.org/zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/latest/) . Each subdirectory has the name of the Rust target. See the platforms each target corresponds to on [https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/rustc/platform-support.html](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/rustc/platform-support.html) . Choose your platform and download the `.zip` file. Unzip it in the same directory than `zenohd` or to any directory where it can find the backend library (e.g. /usr/lib or ~/.zenoh/lib) . ### Linux Debian . Add Eclipse Zenoh private repository to the sources list, and install the `zenoh-backend-influxdb-v2` package: . ```bash echo "deb [trusted=yes] https://download.eclipse.org/zenoh/debian-repo/ /" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list > /dev/null sudo apt update sudo apt install zenoh-backend-influxdb-v2 ``` . ------------------------------- . ## How to build it . > :warning: **WARNING** :warning: : Zenoh and its ecosystem are under active development. When you build from git, make sure you also build from git any other Zenoh repository you plan to use (e.g. binding, plugin, backend, etc.). It may happen that some changes in git are not compatible with the most recent packaged Zenoh release (e.g. deb, docker, pip). We put particular effort in mantaining compatibility between the various git repositories in the Zenoh project. . At first, install [Cargo and Rust](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/getting-started/installation.html). If you already have the Rust toolchain installed, make sure it is up-to-date with: . ```bash rustup update ``` . > :warning: **WARNING** :warning: : As Rust doesn't have a stable ABI, the backend library should be built with the exact same Rust version than `zenohd`, and using for `zenoh` dependency the same version (or commit number) than 'zenohd'. Otherwise, incompatibilities in memory mapping of shared types between `zenohd` and the library can lead to a `"SIGSEV"` crash. . To know the Rust version you're `zenohd` has been built with, use the `--version` option. . ### Example with a downloaded version . ```bash $ zenohd --version The zenoh router v0.10.0-rc built with rustc 1.72.0 (5680fa18f 2023-08-23) ``` . Here, `zenohd` is version `0.10.0-rc` has been built with the rustc version `1.72.0`. Install and use this same toolchain with the following command: . ```bash rustup default 1.72.0 ``` . And edit the update `Cargo.toml` file to make all the `zenoh` dependencies to use the same version number: . ```toml zenoh = { version = "0.10.0-rc", features = [ "unstable" ] } ``` . Then build library only for the v2 backend, you have to specify it in the build command: . ```bash cargo build --release --all-targets -p zenoh-backend-influxdb-v2 ``` . You can build both the versions as well: . ```bash cargo build --release --all-targets ``` . ======= . ### Example with a version built from sources . ```bash $ zenohd --version The zenoh router v0.11.0-dev-37-g9f7a37ee built with rustc 1.72.0 (5680fa18f 2023-08-23) ``` . Here, `zenohd` version is `v0.11.0-dev-37-g9f7a37ee` where: . - `v0.11.0-dev` means it's a development version for the future `v0.11.0` release - `-37`means there have been 37 commits since the tag `0.11.0-dev` marking the begining of developments for this future version - `-g9f7a37ee` indicates the commit number of sources: `9f7a37ee` (the `g` prefix just meaning "git" shall be ignored) . And it has been built with the rustc version `1.72.0`. Install and use this same toolchain with the following command: . ```bash rustup default 1.72.0 ``` . And update all the `zenoh` dependencies in `Cargo.lock` to use the commit id: . ```bash cargo update -p zenoh --precise 9f7a37ee ``` Package: zenoh-backend-influxdb-v2 Version: 1.3.2 Architecture: amd64 Maintainer: zenoh-dev@eclipse.org Installed-Size: 10764 Depends: zenoh-plugin-storage-manager (=1.3.2) Filename: 1.3.2/zenoh-backend-influxdb-v2_1.3.2_amd64.deb Size: 2792772 MD5sum: 74d93462f44f99a22141303ebf19cc41 SHA1: b583ec31409f171c0f6d474aa875f94dfafd9179 SHA256: 26497cf1cb486156f31e2fbfe3040e8cdf6753590131f6ebafa4a7448d51c22e Section: net Priority: optional Homepage: http://zenoh.io Description: Backend for Zenoh using InfluxDB v2.x .

The Eclipse Zenoh: Zero Overhead Pub/sub, Store/Query and Compute. . Zenoh (pronounce _/zeno/_) unifies data in motion, data at rest and computations. It carefully blends traditional pub/sub with geo-distributed storages, queries and computations, while retaining a level of time and space efficiency that is well beyond any of the mainstream stacks. . Check the website [zenoh.io](http://zenoh.io) and the [roadmap](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap) for more detailed information. . ------------------------------- . # InfluxDB backend . In Zenoh a backend is a storage technology (such as DBMS, time-series database, file system...) alowing to store the keys/values publications made via zenoh and return them on queries. See the [zenoh documentation](http://zenoh.io/docs/manual/backends/) for more details. . This backend relies on an [InfluxDB](https://www.influxdata.com/products/influxdb/) server to implement the storages. Its library name (without OS specific prefix and extension) that zenoh will rely on to find it and load it is **`zenoh_backend_influxdb2`**. . :point_right: **Install latest release:** see [below](#how-to-install-it) . :point_right: **Build "main" branch:** see [below](#how-to-build-it) . :note: This provides extensive support for InfluxDB 2.x. . ------------------------------- . ## :warning: Documentation for previous 0.5 versions . The following documentation related to the version currently in development in "main" branch: 0.6.x. . For previous versions see the README and code of the corresponding tagged version: . - [0.5.0-beta.9](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/tree/0.5.0-beta.9#readme) - [0.5.0-beta.8](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-backend-influxdb/tree/0.5.0-beta.8#readme) . ------------------------------- . ## **Examples of usage** . Prerequisites: . - You have a zenoh router (`zenohd`) installed, and the `zenoh_backend_influxdb2` library file is available in `~/.zenoh/lib`. - You have an InfluxDB service running and listening on `http://localhost:8086` . You can setup storages either at zenoh router startup via a configuration file, either at runtime via the zenoh admin space, using for instance the REST API. . ### **Setup via a JSON5 configuration file** . - Create a `zenoh.json5` configuration file containing for example: . ```json5 { plugins: { // configuration of "storage_manager" plugin: storage_manager: { volumes: { // configuration of a "influxdb2" volume (the "zenoh_backend_influxdb2" backend library will be loaded at startup) //this should be named influxdb2 for v2 influxdb2: { // URL to the InfluxDB service url: "http://localhost:8086/api/v2/", private: { // If needed: InfluxDB credentials, preferably ALL-ACCESS for databases creation and drop //if not ALL-ACCESS then atleast with authorization to create/delete buckets //Note: this should not be left empty for the plugin to work; if you have no admin creds, you can copy the user creds instead // org_id: "organization ID", // token: "admin access token" } } }, storages: { // configuration of a "demo" storage using the "influxdb2" volume demo: { // the key expression this storage will subscribes to key_expr: "demo/example/**", // this prefix will be stripped from the received key when converting to database key. // i.e.: "demo/example/a/b" will be stored as "a/b" // this option is optional strip_prefix: "demo/example", volume: { //this will be influxdb2 for v2 (exactly the same name as in volumes section) id: "influxdb2", // the database name within InfluxDB (not the db ID) db: "zenoh_example", // if the database doesn't exist, create it create_db: true, // strategy on storage closure on_closure: "drop_db", private: { //required // If needed: InfluxDB credentials, with read/write privileges for the database //this will be the same as for admin // org_id: "organization ID", //this is any token with either: //a.) Read-Write access to the existing DB mentioned above in the config //b.) Read-write access to ALL buckets in the organization so it can access the new bucket created by zenoh // token: "user access token" } } } } }, // Optionally, add the REST plugin rest: { http_port: 8000 } } } ``` . - Run the zenoh router with: `zenohd -c zenoh.json5` . ### **Setup at runtime via `curl` commands on the admin space** . - Run the zenoh router, with write permissions to its admin space and with the REST plugin: `zenohd --adminspace-permissions=rw --rest-http-port=8000` - Add the "influxdb2" volume (the "zenoh_backend_fs" library will be loaded), connected to InfluxDB service on [http://localhost:8086](http://localhost:8086): `curl -X PUT -H 'content-type:application/json' -d '{url:"http://localhost:8086/api/v2"}' http://localhost:8000/@/router/local/config/plugins/storage_manager/volumes/influxdb2` - Add the "demo" storage using the "influxdb2" volume: `curl -X PUT -H 'content-type:application/json' -d '{key_expr:"demo/example/**",volume:{id:"influxdb2",db:"zenoh_example",create_db:true}}' http://localhost:8000/@/router/local/config/plugins/storage_manager/storages/demo` . ### **Tests using the REST API** . Using `curl` to publish and query keys/values, you can: . ```bash # Put some values at different time intervals curl -X PUT -d "TEST-1" http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test curl -X PUT -d "TEST-2" http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test curl -X PUT -d "TEST-3" http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test . # Retrive them as a time serie where '_time=[..]' means "infinite time range" curl -g 'http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test?_time=[..]' ``` . . ------------------------------- . ## Volume configuration . InfluxDB-backed volumes need some configuration to work: . - **`"url"`** (**required**) : a URL to the InfluxDB service. Example: `http://localhost:8086` . - **`"org_id"`** (optional) : an [InfluxDB organizations](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/organizations/) organization ID. . - **`"token"`** (optional) : the admin user's token. It will be used for creation of databases, granting read/write privileges of databases mapped to storages and dropping of databases and measurements. In Influxdb2.x, you can use an ALL ACCESS token for this ([https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/#all-access-token](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/#all-access-token)) . Both `org_id` and `token` should be hidden behind a behind a `private` object, as shown in the example [above](#setup-via-a-json5-configuration-file). In general, if you wish for a part of the configuration to be hidden when configuration is queried, you should hide it behind a `private` object. . ------------------------------- . ## Volume-specific storage configuration . Storages relying on a `influxdb2` backed volume may have additional configuration through the `volume` section: . - **`"db"`** (optional, string) : the InfluxDB database name the storage will map into. If not specified, a random name will be generated, and the corresponding database will be created (even if `"create_db"` is not set). . - **`"create_db"`** (optional, boolean) : create the InfluxDB database if not already existing. By default the database is not created, unless `"db"` property is not specified. _(the value doesn't matter, only the property existence is checked)_ . - **`"on_closure"`** (optional, string) : the strategy to use when the Storage is removed. There are 3 options: - _unset_ or `"do_nothing"`: the database remains untouched (this is the default behaviour) - `"drop_db"`: the database is dropped (i.e. removed) - `"drop_series"`: all the series (measurements) are dropped and the database remains empty. This is currently not supported in v2. . - **`"org_id"`** (optional, string) :the user's organization. It should be same as the admin's organization. . - **`"token"`** (optional, string) : an InfluxDB access token, usually [non-admin](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/#readwrite-token). It will be used to read/write points in the database on GET/PUT/DELETE zenoh operations. . ------------------------------- . ## **Behaviour of the backend** . ### Mapping to InfluxDB concepts . Each **storage** will map to an InfluxDB **database**. Each **key** to store will map to an InfluxDB [**measurement**](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/concepts/key_concepts/#measurement) named with the key stripped from the `"strip_prefix"` property (see below). Each **key/value** put into the storage will map to an InfluxDB [**point**](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/concepts/key_concepts/#point) reusing the timestamp set by zenoh (but with a precision of nanoseconds). The fileds and tags of the point is are the following: . - `"kind"` tag: the zenoh change kind (`"PUT"` for a value that have been put, or `"DEL"` to mark the deletion of the key) - `"timestamp"` field: the original zenoh timestamp - `"encoding"` field: the value's encoding flag - `"base64"` field: a boolean indicating if the value is encoded in base64 - `"value"`field: the value as a string, possibly encoded in base64 for binary values. . ### Behaviour on deletion . On deletion of a key, all points with a timestamp before the deletion message are deleted. A point with `"kind"="DEL`" is inserted (to avoid re-insertion of points with an older timestamp in case of un-ordered messages). In v1, zenoh used to drop the measurement corresponding to the deleted key is dropped if it still contains no points after 5secs. However, influxdb 2.x doesn't support this feature. . ### Behaviour on GET . On GET operations, by default the storage returns only the latest point for each key/measurement. This is to be coherent with other backends technologies that only store 1 value per-key. If you want to get time-series as a result of a GET operation, you need to specify a time range via the `"_time"`argument in your [Selector](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap/tree/main/rfcs/ALL/Selectors). . :note: Right now, wild chunks like * and ** do not work for Influxdb 2.x. This is due to lack of support in Influxdb 2.x API for our approach. . Examples of selectors: . ```bash # get the complete time-series /demo/example/**?_time=[..] . # get points within a fixed date interval /demo/example/influxdb/**?_time=[2020-01-01T00:00:00Z..2020-01-02T12:00:00.000000000Z] . # get points within a relative date interval /demo/example/influxdb/**?_time=[now(-2d)..now(-1d)] ``` . See the [`"_time"` RFC](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap/blob/main/rfcs/ALL/Selectors/_time.md) for a complete description of the time range format . ------------------------------- . ## How to install it .
