influxio¶

About¶

Import and export data into/from InfluxDB, for humans and machines.

Features¶

Capable: Connect to the InfluxDB HTTP API, or read from an InfluxDB TSM data directory directly.
Concise: All features are available through a single powerful primitive, influxio copy.
Polyglot: Support I/O operations between InfluxDB, any SQL database supported by SQLAlchemy, file formats supported by pandas/Dask, and the native InfluxDB line protocol (ILP), on both import and export directions.
Versatile: Use it as a command-line program, pipeline element, or as a library within your own applications.
