This repository contains the reference PHP client for the InfluxDB 2.x.
Note: Use this client library with InfluxDB 2.x and InfluxDB 1.8+ (see details). For connecting to InfluxDB 1.7 or earlier instances, use the influxdb-php client library.
This section contains links to the client library documentation.
The client is not hard coupled to HTTP client library like Guzzle, Buzz or something else. The client uses general abstractions (PSR-7 - HTTP messages, PSR-17 - HTTP factories, PSR-18 - HTTP client) which give you freedom to use your favorite one.
The InfluxDB 2 client is bundled and hosted on https://packagist.org/ and can be installed with composer:
composer require influxdata/influxdb-client-php guzzlehttp/guzzle
Use InfluxDB2\Client
to create a client connected to a running InfluxDB 2 instance.
$client = new InfluxDB2\Client([
"url" => "http://localhost:8086",
"token" => "my-token",
"bucket" => "my-bucket",
"org" => "my-org",
"precision" => InfluxDB2\Model\WritePrecision::NS
]);
Option | Description | Note | Type | Default |
---|---|---|---|---|
url | InfluxDB server API url (e.g. http://localhost:8086) | required | String | none |
token | Token to use for the authorization | required | String | none |
bucket | Default destination bucket for writes | String | none | |
org | Default destination organization for writes | String | none | |
precision | Default precision for the unix timestamps within the body line-protocol | String | none | |
allow_redirects | Enable HTTP redirects | bool | true | |
debug | Enable verbose logging of http requests | bool | false | |
logFile | Default output for logs | bool | php://output | |
httpClient | Configured HTTP client to use for communication with InfluxDB | Psr\Http\Client\ClientInterface |
none | |
verifySSL | Turn on/off SSL certificate verification. Set to false to disable certificate verification. |
Guzzle HTTP client |
bool | true |
timeout | Describing the number of seconds to wait while trying to connect to a server. Use 0 to wait indefinitely. | Guzzle HTTP client |
int | 10 |
proxy | specify an HTTP proxy, or an array to specify different proxies for different protocols. | Guzzle HTTP client |
string | none |
The following code shows how to use and configure cURL HTTP client:
composer require influxdata/influxdb-client-php nyholm/psr7 php-http/curl-client
$curlOptions = [
CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT => 30, // The number of seconds to wait while trying to connect.
];
$curlClient = new Http\Client\Curl\Client(
Http\Discovery\Psr17FactoryDiscovery::findRequestFactory(),
Http\Discovery\Psr17FactoryDiscovery::findStreamFactory(),
$curlOptions
);
$client = new Client([
"url" => "http://localhost:8086",
"token" => "my-token",
"bucket" => "my-bucket",
"org" => "my-org",
"httpClient" => $curlClient
]);
The result retrieved by QueryApi could be formatted as a:
- Raw query response
- Flux data structure: FluxTable, FluxColumn and FluxRecord
- Stream of FluxRecord
Synchronously executes the Flux query and return result as unprocessed String
$this->client = new Client([
"url" => "http://localhost:8086",
"token" => "my-token",
"bucket" => "my-bucket",
"precision" => WritePrecision::NS,
"org" => "my-org",
"debug" => false
]);
$this->queryApi = $this->client->createQueryApi();
$result = $this->queryApi->queryRaw(
'from(bucket:"my-bucket") |> range(start: 1970-01-01T00:00:00.000000001Z) |> last()');
Synchronously executes the Flux query and return result as a Array of FluxTables
$this->client = new Client([
"url" => "http://localhost:8086",
"token" => "my-token",
"bucket" => "my-bucket",
"precision" => WritePrecision::NS,
"org" => "my-org",
"debug" => false
]);
$this->queryApi = $this->client->createQueryApi();
$result = $this->queryApi->query(
'from(bucket:"my-bucket") |> range(start: 1970-01-01T00:00:00.000000001Z) |> last()');
This can then easily be encoded to JSON with json_encode
header('Content-type:application/json;charset=utf-8');
echo json_encode( $result, JSON_PRETTY_PRINT ) ;
Synchronously executes the Flux query and return stream of FluxRecord
$this->client = new Client([
"url" => "http://localhost:8086",
"token" => "my-token",
"bucket" => "my-bucket",
"precision" => WritePrecision::NS,
"org" => "my-org",
"debug" => false
]);
$this->queryApi = $this->client->createQueryApi();
$parser = $this->queryApi->queryStream(
'from(bucket:"my-bucket") |> range(start: 1970-01-01T00:00:00.000000001Z) |> last()');
foreach ($parser->each() as $record)
{
...
}
InfluxDB Cloud supports Parameterized Queries that let you dynamically change values in a query using the InfluxDB API. Parameterized queries make Flux queries more reusable and can also be used to help prevent injection attacks.
InfluxDB Cloud inserts the params object into the Flux query as a Flux record named params
. Use dot or bracket
notation to access parameters in the params
record in your Flux query. Parameterized Flux queries support only int
, float
, and string
data types. To convert the supported data types into
other Flux basic data types, use Flux type conversion functions.
Parameterized query example:
⚠️ Parameterized Queries are supported only in InfluxDB Cloud, currently there is no support in InfluxDB OSS.
<?php
require __DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php';
use InfluxDB2\Client;
use InfluxDB2\Model\Query;
use InfluxDB2\Point;
use InfluxDB2\WriteType as WriteType;
$url = "https://us-west-2-1.aws.cloud2.influxdata.com";
$organization = 'my-org';
$bucket = 'my-bucket';
$token = 'my-token';
$client = new Client([
"url" => $url,
"token" => $token,
"bucket" => $bucket,
"org" => $organization,
"precision" => InfluxDB2\Model\WritePrecision::NS,
"debug" => false
]);
$writeApi = $client->createWriteApi(["writeType" => WriteType::SYNCHRONOUS]);
$queryApi = $client->createQueryApi();
$today = new DateTime("now");
$yesterday = $today->sub(new DateInterval("P1D"));
$p = new Point("temperature");
$p->addTag("location", "north")->addField("value", 60)->time($yesterday);
$writeApi->write($p);
$writeApi->close();
//
// Query range start parameter using duration
//
$parameterizedQuery = "from(bucket: params.bucketParam) |> range(start: duration(v: params.startParam))";
$query = new Query();
$query->setQuery($parameterizedQuery);
$query->setParams(["bucketParam" => "my-bucket", "startParam" => "-1d"]);
$tables = $queryApi->query($query);
foreach ($tables as $table) {
foreach ($table->records as $record) {
var_export($record->values);
}
}
//
// Query range start parameter using DateTime
//
$parameterizedQuery = "from(bucket: params.bucketParam) |> range(start: time(v: params.startParam))";
$query->setParams(["bucketParam" => "my-bucket", "startParam" => $yesterday]);
$query->setQuery($parameterizedQuery);
$tables = $queryApi->query($query);
foreach ($tables as $table) {
foreach ($table->records as $record) {
var_export($record->values);
}
}
$client->close();
The WriteApi supports synchronous and batching writes into InfluxDB 2.x. In default api uses synchronous write. To enable batching you can use WriteOption.
$client = new InfluxDB2\Client(["url" => "http://localhost:8086", "token" => "my-token",
"bucket" => "my-bucket",
"org" => "my-org",
"precision" => InfluxDB2\Model\WritePrecision::NS
]);
$write_api = $client->createWriteApi();
$write_api->write('h2o,location=west value=33i 15');
The writes are processed in batches which are configurable by WriteOptions
:
Property | Description | Default Value |
---|---|---|
writeType | type of write SYNCHRONOUS / BATCHING / | SYNCHRONOUS |
batchSize | the number of data point to collect in batch | 10 |
retryInterval | the number of milliseconds to retry unsuccessful write. The retry interval is "exponentially" used when the InfluxDB server does not specify "Retry-After" header. | 5000 |
jitterInterval | the number of milliseconds before the data is written increased by a random amount | 0 |
maxRetries | the number of max retries when write fails | 5 |
maxRetryDelay | maximum delay when retrying write in milliseconds | 125000 |
maxRetryTime | maximum total retry timeout in milliseconds | 180000 |
exponentialBase | the base for the exponential retry delay, the next delay is computed using random exponential backoff as a random value within the interval retryInterval * exponentialBase^(attempts-1) and retryInterval * exponentialBase^(attempts) . Example for retryInterval=5000, exponentialBase=2, maxRetryDelay=125000, total=5 Retry delays are random distributed values within the ranges of [5000-10000, 10000-20000, 20000-40000, 40000-80000, 80000-125000] |

use InfluxDB2\Client;
use InfluxDB2\WriteType as WriteType;
$client = new Client(["url" => "http://localhost:8086", "token" => "my-token",
"bucket" => "my-bucket",
"org" => "my-org",
"precision" => InfluxDB2\Model\WritePrecision::NS
]);
$writeApi = $client->createWriteApi(
["writeType" => WriteType::BATCHING, 'batchSize' => 1000]);
foreach (range(1, 10000) as $number) {
$writeApi->write("mem,host=aws_europe,type=batch value=1i $number");
}
// flush remaining data
$writeApi->close();
Configure default time precision:
$client = new InfluxDB2\Client(["url" => "http://localhost:8086", "token" => "my-token",
"bucket" => "my-bucket",
"org" => "my-org",
"precision" => \InfluxDB2\Model\WritePrecision::NS
]);
Configure precision per write:
$client = new InfluxDB2\Client([
"url" => "http://localhost:8086",
"token" => "my-token",
"bucket" => "my-bucket",
"org" => "my-org",
]);
$writeApi = $client->createWriteApi();
$writeApi->write('h2o,location=west value=33i 15', \InfluxDB2\Model\WritePrecision::MS);
Allowed values for precision are:
WritePrecision::NS
for nanosecondWritePrecision::US
for microsecondWritePrecision::MS
for millisecondWritePrecision::S
for second
Default bucket
and organization
destination are configured via InfluxDB2\Client
:
$client = new InfluxDB2\Client([
"url" => "http://localhost:8086",
"token" => "my-token",
"bucket" => "my-bucket",
]);
but there is also possibility to override configuration per write:
$client = new InfluxDB2\Client(["url" => "http://localhost:8086", "token" => "my-token"]);
$writeApi = $client->createWriteApi();
$writeApi->write('h2o,location=west value=33i 15', \InfluxDB2\Model\WritePrecision::MS, "production-bucket", "customer-1");
The data could be written as:
string
that is formatted as a InfluxDB's line protocolarray
with keys: name, tags, fields and time- Data Point structure
Array
of above items
$client = new InfluxDB2\Client([
"url" => "http://localhost:8086",
"token" => "my-token",
"bucket" => "my-bucket",
"org" => "my-org",
"precision" => InfluxDB2\Model\WritePrecision::US
]);
$writeApi = $client->createWriteApi();
//data in Point structure
$point=InfluxDB2\Point::measurement("h2o")
->addTag("location", "europe")
->addField("level",2)
->time(microtime(true));
$writeApi->write($point);
//data in array structure
$dataArray = ['name' => 'cpu',
'tags' => ['host' => 'server_nl', 'region' => 'us'],
'fields' => ['internal' => 5, 'external' => 6],
'time' => microtime(true)];
$writeApi->write($dataArray);
//write lineprotocol
$writeApi->write('h2o,location=west value=33i 15');
Sometimes is useful to store same information in every measurement e.g. hostname
, location
, customer
.
The client is able to use static value, app settings or env variable as a tag value.
The expressions:
California Miner
- static value${env.hostname}
- environment property
$this->client = new Client([
"url" => "http://localhost:8086",
"token" => "my-token",
"bucket" => "my-bucket",
"precision" => WritePrecision::NS,
"org" => "my-org",
"tags" => ['id' => '132-987-655',
'hostname' => '${env.Hostname}']
]);
$writeApi = $this->client->createWriteApi(null, ['data_center' => '${env.data_center}']);
$writeApi->pointSettings->addDefaultTag('customer', 'California Miner');
$point = Point::measurement('h2o')
->addTag('location', 'europe')
->addField('level', 2);
$this->writeApi->write($point);
Server availability can be checked using the $client->ping();
method. That is equivalent of the influx ping.
InfluxDB 1.8.0 introduced forward compatibility APIs for InfluxDB 2.x. This allow you to easily move from InfluxDB 1.x to InfluxDB 2.x Cloud or open source.
The following forward compatible APIs are available:
API | Endpoint | Description |
---|---|---|
QueryApi.php | /api/v2/query | Query data in InfluxDB 1.8.0+ using the InfluxDB 2.x API and Flux (endpoint should be enabled by flux-enabled option) |
WriteApi.php | /api/v2/write | Write data to InfluxDB 1.8.0+ using the InfluxDB 2.x API |
HealthApi.php | /health | Check the health of your InfluxDB instance |
For detail info see InfluxDB 1.8 example.
InfluxDB 2.x API client is generated using influxdb-clients-apigen
. Sources are in InfluxDB2\Service\
and InfluxDB2\Model\
packages.
The following example shows how to use OrganizationService
and BucketService
to create a new bucket.
require __DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php';
use InfluxDB2\Client;
use InfluxDB2\Model\BucketRetentionRules;
use InfluxDB2\Model\Organization;
use InfluxDB2\Model\PostBucketRequest;
use InfluxDB2\Service\BucketsService;
use InfluxDB2\Service\OrganizationsService;
$organization = 'my-org';
$bucket = 'my-bucket';
$token = 'my-token';
$client = new Client([
"url" => "http://localhost:8086",
"token" => $token,
"bucket" => $bucket,
"org" => $organization,
"precision" => InfluxDB2\Model\WritePrecision::S
]);
function findMyOrg($client): ?Organization
{
/** @var OrganizationsService $orgService */
$orgService = $client->createService(OrganizationsService::class);
$orgs = $orgService->getOrgs()->getOrgs();
foreach ($orgs as $org) {
if ($org->getName() == $client->options["org"]) {
return $org;
}
}
return null;
}
$bucketsService = $client->createService(BucketsService::class);
$rule = new BucketRetentionRules();
$rule->setEverySeconds(3600);
$bucketName = "example-bucket-" . microtime();
$bucketRequest = new PostBucketRequest();
$bucketRequest->setName($bucketName)
->setRetentionRules([$rule])
->setOrgId(findMyOrg($client)->getId());
//create bucket
$respBucket = $bucketsService->postBuckets($bucketRequest);
print $respBucket;
$client->close();
Sending via UDP will be useful in cases when the execution time is critical to avoid potential delays (even timeouts) in sending metrics to the InfluxDB while are problems with the database or network connectivity.
As is known, sending via UDP occurs without waiting for a response, unlike TCP (HTTP).
UDP Writer Requirements:
- Installed ext-sockets
- Since Influxdb 2.0+ does not support UDP protocol natively you need to install and configure Telegraf plugin: https://docs.influxdata.com/telegraf/v1.16/plugins/#socket_listener
- Extra config option passed to client: udpPort. Optionally you can specify udpHost, otherwise udpHost will parsed from url option
- Extra config option passed to client: ipVersion. Optionally you can specify the ip version, defaults to IPv4
$client = new InfluxDB2\Client(["url" => "http://localhost:8086", "token" => "my-token",
"bucket" => "my-bucket",
"org" => "my-org",
"precision" => InfluxDB2\Model\WritePrecision::NS,
"udpPort" => 8094,
"ipVersion" => 6,
]);
$writer = $client->createUdpWriter();
$writer->write('h2o,location=west value=33i 15');
$writer->close();
The DefaultService.php supports deletes points from an InfluxDB bucket.
<?php
/**
* Shows how to delete data from InfluxDB by client
*/
use InfluxDB2\Client;
use InfluxDB2\Model\DeletePredicateRequest;
use InfluxDB2\Service\DeleteService;
$url = 'http://localhost:8086';
$token = 'my-token';
$org = 'my-org';
$bucket = 'my-bucket';
$client = new Client([
"url" => $url,
"token" => $token,
"bucket" => $bucket,
"org" => $org,
"precision" => InfluxDB2\Model\WritePrecision::S
]);
//
// Delete data by measurement and tag value
//
/** @var DeleteService $service */
$service = $client->createService(DeleteService::class);
$predicate = new DeletePredicateRequest();
$predicate->setStart(DateTime::createFromFormat('Y', '2020'));
$predicate->setStop(new DateTime());
$predicate->setPredicate("_measurement=\"mem\" AND host=\"host1\"");
$service->postDelete($predicate, null, $org, $bucket);
$client->close();
For more details see DeleteDataExample.php.
You can configure InfluxDB PHP client behind a proxy in two ways:
Set environment variable HTTP_PROXY
or HTTPS_PROXY
based on the scheme of your server url. For more info see Guzzle docs - environment Variables.
You can pass a proxy
configuration when creating the client:
$client = new InfluxDB2\Client([
"url" => "http://localhost:8086",
"token" => "my-token",
"bucket" => "my-bucket",
"org" => "my-org",
"proxy" => "http://192.168.16.1:10",
]);
For more info see Guzzle docs - proxy.
Client automatically follows HTTP redirects. You can configure redirects behaviour by a allow_redirects
configuration:
$client = new InfluxDB2\Client([
"url" => "http://localhost:8086",
"token" => "my-token",
"bucket" => "my-bucket",
"org" => "my-org",
"allow_redirects" => false,
]);
For more info see Redirect Plugin docs - allow_redirects
