NOTES.txt

InfluxDB can be accessed via port {{ .Values.config.http.bind_address }} on the following DNS name from within your cluster:

- http://{{ template "influxdb.fullname" . }}.{{ .Release.Namespace }}:{{ .Values.config.http.bind_address }}

You can easily connect to the remote instance with your local influx cli. To forward the API port to localhost:8086 run the following:

- kubectl port-forward --namespace {{ .Release.Namespace }} $(kubectl get pods --namespace {{ .Release.Namespace }} -l app={{ template "influxdb.fullname" . }} -o jsonpath='{ .items[0].metadata.name }') 8086:{{ .Values.config.http.bind_address }}

You can also connect to the influx cli from inside the container. To open a shell session in the InfluxDB pod run the following:

- kubectl exec -i -t --namespace {{ .Release.Namespace }} $(kubectl get pods --namespace {{ .Release.Namespace }} -l app={{ template "influxdb.fullname" . }} -o jsonpath='{.items[0].metadata.name}') /bin/sh

To tail the logs for the InfluxDB pod run the following:

- kubectl logs -f --namespace {{ .Release.Namespace }} $(kubectl get pods --namespace {{ .Release.Namespace }} -l app={{ template "influxdb.fullname" . }} -o jsonpath='{ .items[0].metadata.name }')

{{- if .Values.setDefaultUser.enabled }}

To retrieve the default user name:

- echo $(kubectl get secret {{ template "influxdb.fullname" . }}-auth -o "jsonpath={.data['influxdb-user']}" --namespace {{ .Release.Namespace }} | base64 --decode)

To retrieve the default user password:

- echo $(kubectl get secret {{ template "influxdb.fullname" . }}-auth -o "jsonpath={.data['influxdb-password']}" --namespace {{ .Release.Namespace }} | base64 --decode)

{{- end }}
