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/@/local/router/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/@/local/router/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: 1.9.0 Architecture: amd64 Maintainer: zenoh-dev@eclipse.org Installed-Size: 8816 Depends: zenoh-plugin-storage-manager (=1.9.0) Filename: 1.9.0/zenoh-backend-influxdb-v1_1.9.0_amd64.deb Size: 2348566 MD5sum: ea08adc5aefa4effe672ea1e005e0273 SHA1: 06c36356e9a7bb7e65ebb621dcf5122e5a7aad27 SHA256: 675f140e899dd9e80d3b996383f938c3630663a09cb917b579a9e85a74a1d8e6 Section: net Priority: optional Homepage: http://zenoh.io Description: Backend for Zenoh using InfluxDB v1.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_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 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/@/local/router/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/@/local/router/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: 1.9.0 Architecture: armhf Maintainer: zenoh-dev@eclipse.org Installed-Size: 6129 Depends: zenoh-plugin-storage-manager (=1.9.0) Filename: 1.9.0/zenoh-backend-influxdb-v1_1.9.0_armhf.deb Size: 1621394 MD5sum: 9a6e35b4aa597cd5fd1a549dcd7db92e SHA1: 3e2df70ff5c0ac18d3926b7fb7ad72f9693471df SHA256: 92e98ac490d95b73b68ebb131c7101d4f012fb765bee62b9066366b82224a2e4 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/@/local/router/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/@/local/router/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/@/local/router/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/@/local/router/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: 1.9.0 Architecture: armhf Maintainer: zenoh-dev@eclipse.org Installed-Size: 7720 Depends: zenoh-plugin-storage-manager (=1.9.0) Filename: 1.9.0/zenoh-backend-influxdb-v2_1.9.0_armhf.deb Size: 2075610 MD5sum: b49b0edb6a307a949674f366fdfe2ba5 SHA1: 6e98b3e52af143c3ccf02252d240600fd67d9356 SHA256: 11ccb4f2dc2f16675b22bae3b3efedfe75a7ae20ea161adefccf16b9df029ad2 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/@/local/router/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/@/local/router/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 .

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)] ``` .

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: 1.9.0 Architecture: amd64 Maintainer: zenoh-dev@eclipse.org Installed-Size: 10430 Depends: zenoh-plugin-storage-manager (=1.9.0) Filename: 1.9.0/zenoh-backend-influxdb-v2_1.9.0_amd64.deb Size: 2757506 MD5sum: 280293a30c0076f837c115a986491cae SHA1: 9dfd5c8a67ff382d698114f52745639a03454ae4 SHA256: 2f36ec523b3f2c2a436c2d6ff6445eeb1900ceae6c492c9d32cb70523f138484 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/@/local/router/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/@/local/router/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: 1.9.0 Architecture: armel Maintainer: zenoh-dev@eclipse.org Installed-Size: 7852 Depends: zenoh-plugin-storage-manager (=1.9.0) Filename: 1.9.0/zenoh-backend-influxdb-v2_1.9.0_armel.deb Size: 2064702 MD5sum: cea103650b93bd173ec870b8ad95d614 SHA1: dba6e8d8381ae5b3ecb7854069530983bc6acd19 SHA256: af4fef71f5980571264a758e629fe9a05d0a0999b4148fe08ffbfd9f90f558d1 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: 1.9.0 Architecture: arm64 Maintainer: zenoh-dev@eclipse.org Installed-Size: 8771 Depends: zenoh-plugin-storage-manager (=1.9.0) Filename: 1.9.0/zenoh-backend-influxdb-v2_1.9.0_arm64.deb Size: 2248150 MD5sum: 769b16d26da74fe0c6888935fc9290a6 SHA1: d7d1c3e910aa8b73405e9bdf18e6759ce544d35b SHA256: a7e80274677490894faf1c7040c034737facf98e4507de55363f87c9ec67fcf2 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/@/local/router/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/@/local/router/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 .
