Adding InfluxDB to your app
InfluxDB is an open source Time-Series database, and it's easy to add to your application via the Dashboard.
Add InfluxDB
To add InfluxDB to your application:
- Open the application from the Dashboard.
- Click on Data Sources in the left-hand nav
- Click on Add Source in the sub-nav
- Click the green + Add Data Source button and select InfluxDB
- A drawer will open from the left, with configuration options for the server.
- Click Add Server to start the process
You can now watch the logs, as usual to see the progress of the process.
Added to host not container
For docker applications InfluxDB will be added to the host not as a container.
