Detailed documentation on the InfluxDB binding component

Component format

To setup InfluxDB binding create a component of type bindings.influx. See this guide on how to create and apply a binding configuration.

  1. apiVersion: dapr.io/v1alpha1
  2. kind: Component
  3. metadata:
  4. name: <NAME>
  5. spec:

Binding support

This component supports output binding with the following operations:

  • create
  • query

Query

In order to query InfluxDB, use a query operation along with a raw key in the call’s metadata, with the query as the value:

  1. curl -X POST http://localhost:3500/v1.0/bindings/myInfluxBinding \
  2. -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  3. -d "{
  4. \"metadata\": {
  5. \"raw\": "SELECT * FROM 'sith_lords'"
  6. },
  7. \"operation\": \"query\"
  8. }"
