Hi,
I am using Telegraf to capture data of a local ip address (http:192.168.X.Y/getvar.csv) / csv file and storing it in influxdb. This is my config file:
# Configuration for telegraf agent
[agent]
## Default data collection interval for all inputs
interval = "5s"
round_interval = true
## Telegraf will send metrics to outputs in batches of at most
## metric_batch_size metrics.
## This controls the size of writes that Telegraf sends to output plugins.
metric_batch_size = 1000
## Maximum number of unwritten metrics per output. Increasing this value
## allows for longer periods of output downtime without dropping metrics at the
## cost of higher maximum memory usage.
metric_buffer_limit = 10000
## Collection jitter is used to jitter the collection by a random amount.
## Each plugin will sleep for a random time within jitter before collecting.
## This can be used to avoid many plugins querying things like sysfs at the
## same time, which can have a measurable effect on the system.
collection_jitter = "0s"
## Default flushing interval for all outputs. Maximum flush_interval will be
## flush_interval + flush_jitter
flush_interval = "10s"
## Jitter the flush interval by a random amount. This is primarily to avoid
## large write spikes for users running a large number of telegraf instances.
## ie, a jitter of 5s and interval 10s means flushes will happen every 10-15s
flush_jitter = "0s"
## By default or when set to "0s", precision will be set to the same
## timestamp order as the collection interval, with the maximum being 1s.
## ie, when interval = "10s", precision will be "1s"
## when interval = "250ms", precision will be "1ms"
## Precision will NOT be used for service inputs. It is up to each individual
## service input to set the timestamp at the appropriate precision.
## Valid time units are "ns", "us" (or "µs"), "ms", "s".
precision = ""
## Log at debug level.
# debug = false
## Log only error level messages.
# quiet = false
## Log target controls the destination for logs and can be one of "file",
## "stderr" or, on Windows, "eventlog". When set to "file", the output file
## is determined by the "logfile" setting.
# logtarget = "file"
## Name of the file to be logged to when using the "file" logtarget. If set to
## the empty string then logs are written to stderr.
# logfile = ""
## The logfile will be rotated after the time interval specified. When set
## to 0 no time based rotation is performed. Logs are rotated only when
## written to, if there is no log activity rotation may be delayed.
# logfile_rotation_interval = "0d"
## The logfile will be rotated when it becomes larger than the specified
## size. When set to 0 no size based rotation is performed.
# logfile_rotation_max_size = "0MB"
## Maximum number of rotated archives to keep, any older logs are deleted.
## If set to -1, no archives are removed.
# logfile_rotation_max_archives = 5
## Pick a timezone to use when logging or type 'local' for local time.
## Example: America/Chicago
# log_with_timezone = ""
## Override default hostname, if empty use os.Hostname()
hostname = ""
## If set to true, do no set the "host" tag in the telegraf agent.
omit_hostname = false
[[outputs.influxdb_v2]]
urls = ["http://192.168.X.X:8086"]
## Token for authentication.
token = "XXX"
## Organization is the name of the organization you wish to write to; must exist.
organization = "XXX Inc"
## Destination bucket to write into.
bucket = "XXX_STATS"
[[inputs.http]]
urls = ["http://192.168.X.Y/getvar.csv"]
data_format = "csv"
csv_header_row_count = 1
csv_measurement_column = ["name"]
csv_tag_columns = ["id"]
csv_column_types = ["string","float","string","string","string","string"]
[[processors.converter]]
[processors.converter.fields]
float = ["val"]
I get this error message in my telegraf docker logs:
022-07-24T15:28:42Z E! [inputs.http] Error in plugin: [url=http://192.168.X.Y/getvar.csv]: instantiating parser failed: line 95: (csv.Parser.MeasurementColumn) cannot unmarshal TOML array into string (need slice)
Does anybody know what is wrong with my config file?
Many thanks!
