1.1 Query

from influxdb_client import InfluxDBClient, Point

from influxdb_client.client.write_api import SYNCHRONOUS

bucket = "my-bucket"

client = InfluxDBClient(url="http://localhost:8086", token="my-token", org="my-org")

write_api = client.write_api(write_options=SYNCHRONOUS)
query_api = client.query_api()

p = Point("my_measurement").tag("location", "Prague").field("temperature", 25.3)

write_api.write(bucket=bucket, record=p)

## using Table structure

tables = query_api.query('from(bucket:"my-bucket") |> range(start: -10m)')

for table in tables:

print(table)
for row in table.records:
print (row.values)

## using csv library

csv_result = query_api.query_csv('from(bucket:"my-bucket") |> range(start: -10m)')
val_count = 0
for row in csv_result:
for cell in row:
val_count += 1

1.2 Write

The WriteApi supports synchronous, asynchronous and batching writes into InfluxDB 2.0. The data should be passed
as a InfluxDB Line Protocol, Data Point or Observable stream.
:warning:
The WriteApi in batching mode (default mode) is supposed to run as a singleton. To flush all your data
you should wrap the execution using with client.write_api(...) as write_api: statement or
call write_api.close() at the end of your script.
The default instance of WriteApi use batching.

1.2.1 The data could be written as

1. string or bytes that is formatted as a InfluxDB’s line protocol

2. Data Point structure
3. Dictionary style mapping with keys: measurement, tags, fields and time or custom structure
4. NamedTuple
5. Data Classes
6. Pandas DataFrame
7. List of above items
8. A batching type of write also supports an Observable that produce one of an above item
You can find write examples at GitHub: influxdb-client-python/examples.

1.2.2 Batching

The batching is configurable by write_options:

Prop- Description De-

erty fault
Value
the number of data point to collect in a batch
batch_size 1000
the number of milliseconds before the batch is written
flush_interval 1000
jit- the number of milliseconds to increase the batch flush interval by a random amount 0
ter_interval
the number of milliseconds to retry first unsuccessful write. The next retry delay is computed using
retry_interval 5000
exponential random backoff. The retry interval is used when the InfluxDB server does not specify
“Retry-After” header.
maximum total retry timeout in milliseconds.
max_retry_time 180_000
the number of max retries when write fails
max_retries 5
the maximum delay between each retry attempt in milliseconds
max_retry_delay 125_000
the maximum amount of time to wait for batches to flush when .close() is called
max_close_wait 300_000
ex- the base for the exponential retry delay, the next delay is computed using random exponential backoff as 2
po- a random value within the interval retry_interval * exponential_base^(attempts-1) and
nen- retry_interval * exponential_base^(attempts). Example for retry_interval=5_000,
exponential_base=2, max_retry_delay=125_000, total=5 Retry delays are random dis-
tial_base
tributed values within the ranges of [5_000-10_000, 10_000-20_000, 20_000-40_000,
40_000-80_000, 80_000-125_000]

1.2.3 Default Tags

Sometimes is useful to store same information in every measurement e.g. hostname, location, customer. The
client is able to use static value or env property as a tag value.
The expressions:
• California Miner - static value
• ${env.hostname} - environment property

1.2. Write 5
influxdb_client, Release 1.48.0

Via API

point_settings = PointSettings()
point_settings.add_default_tag("id", "132-987-655")
point_settings.add_default_tag("customer", "California Miner")
point_settings.add_default_tag("data_center", "${env.data_center}")

self.write_client = self.client.write_api(write_options=SYNCHRONOUS, point_

˓→settings=point_settings)

self.write_client = self.client.write_api(write_options=SYNCHRONOUS,
point_settings=PointSettings(**{"id": "132-
˓→987-655",

"customer
˓→": "California Miner"}))

Via Configuration file

In an init configuration file you are able to specify default tags by tags segment.

self.client = InfluxDBClient.from_config_file("config.ini")

[influx2]
url=http://localhost:8086
org=my-org
token=my-token
timeout=6000

[tags]
id = 132-987-655
customer = California Miner
data_center = ${env.data_center}

You can also use a TOML or aJSON format for the configuration file.

Via Environment Properties

You are able to specify default tags by environment properties with prefix INFLUXDB_V2_TAG_.
Examples:
• INFLUXDB_V2_TAG_ID
• INFLUXDB_V2_TAG_HOSTNAME

self.client = InfluxDBClient.from_env_properties()

1.2.4 Synchronous client

Data are writes in a synchronous HTTP request.

from influxdb_client import InfluxDBClient, Point

from influxdb_client .client.write_api import SYNCHRONOUS

client = InfluxDBClient(url="http://localhost:8086", token="my-token", org="my-org")

write_api = client.write_api(write_options=SYNCHRONOUS)

_point1 = Point("my_measurement").tag("location", "Prague").field("temperature", 25.3)

_point2 = Point("my_measurement").tag("location", "New York").field("temperature", 24.3)

write_api.write(bucket="my-bucket", record=[_point1, _point2])

client.close()

1.3 Delete data

The delete_api.py supports deletes points from an InfluxDB bucket.

from influxdb_client import InfluxDBClient

client = InfluxDBClient(url="http://localhost:8086", token="my-token")

delete_api = client.delete_api()

"""
Delete Data
"""
start = "1970-01-01T00:00:00Z"
stop = "2021-02-01T00:00:00Z"
delete_api.delete(start, stop, '_measurement="my_measurement"', bucket='my-bucket', org=
˓→'my-org')

"""
Close client
"""
client.close()

1.4 Pandas DataFrame

:warning:
For DataFrame querying you should install Pandas dependency via pip install
'influxdb-client[extra]'.
:warning:
Note that if a query returns more then one table than the client generates a DataFrame for each of them.
The client is able to retrieve data in Pandas DataFrame format thought query_data_frame:

1.5 How to use Asyncio

Starting from version 1.27.0 for Python 3.7+ the influxdb-client package supports async/await based on asyncio,
aiohttp and aiocsv. You can install aiohttp and aiocsv directly:

$ python -m pip install influxdb-client aiohttp aiocsv

or use the [async] extra:

$ python -m pip install influxdb-client[async]

:warning:

8 Chapter 1. User Guide

 influxdb_client, Release 1.48.0

The InfluxDBClientAsync should be initialised inside async coroutine otherwise there can be un-
expected behaviour. For more info see: Why is creating a ClientSession outside an event loop dangerous?.

1.5.1 Async APIs

All async APIs are available via influxdb_client.client.influxdb_client_async.InfluxDBClientAsync.

The async version of the client supports following asynchronous APIs:
• influxdb_client.client.write_api_async.WriteApiAsync
• influxdb_client.client.query_api_async.QueryApiAsync
• influxdb_client.client.delete_api_async.DeleteApiAsync
• Management services into influxdb_client.service supports async operation
and also check to readiness of the InfluxDB via /ping endpoint:
The InfluxDBClientAsync constructor accepts a number of configuration properties. Most useful among these
are:
• connection_pool_maxsize - The total number of simultaneous connections. Defaults to multiprocessing.
cpu_count() * 5.
• enable_gzip - enable gzip compression during write and query calls. Defaults to false.
• proxy - URL of an HTTP proxy to be used.
• timeout - The maximum number of milliseconds for handling HTTP requests from initial handshake to han-
dling response data. This is passed directly to the underlying transport library. If large amounts of data are antic-
ipated, for example from query_api.query_stream(...), this should be increased to avoid TimeoutError
or CancelledError. Defaults to 10_000 ms.

1.5.6 Proxy and redirects

You can configure the client to tunnel requests through an HTTP proxy. The following proxy options are supported:
• proxy - Set this to configure the http proxy to be used, ex. http://localhost:3128
• proxy_headers - A dictionary containing headers that will be sent to the proxy. Could be used for proxy
authentication.

from influxdb_client.client.influxdb_client_async import InfluxDBClientAsync

async with InfluxDBClientAsync(url="http://localhost:8086",

token="my-token",
org="my-org",
proxy="http://localhost:3128") as client:

If your proxy notify the client with permanent redirect (HTTP 301) to different host. The client removes
Authorization header, because otherwise the contents of Authorization is sent to third parties which is a security
vulnerability.
Client automatically follows HTTP redirects. The default redirect policy is to follow up to 10 consecutive requests.
The redirects can be configured via:
• allow_redirects - If set to False, do not follow HTTP redirects. True by default.
• max_redirects - Maximum number of HTTP redirects to follow. 10 by default.

12 Chapter 1. User Guide

 influxdb_client, Release 1.48.0

1.6 Gzip support

InfluxDBClient does not enable gzip compression for http requests by default. If you want to enable gzip to reduce
transfer data’s size, you can call:

from influxdb_client import InfluxDBClient

_db_client = InfluxDBClient(url="http://localhost:8086", token="my-token", org="my-org",␣

˓→enable_gzip=True)

1.7 Proxy configuration

You can configure the client to tunnel requests through an HTTP proxy. The following proxy options are supported:
• proxy - Set this to configure the http proxy to be used, ex. http://localhost:3128
• proxy_headers - A dictionary containing headers that will be sent to the proxy. Could be used for proxy
authentication.

from influxdb_client import InfluxDBClient

with InfluxDBClient(url="http://localhost:8086",
token="my-token",
org="my-org",
proxy="http://localhost:3128") as client:

If your proxy notify the client with permanent redirect (HTTP 301) to different host. The client removes
Authorization header, because otherwise the contents of Authorization is sent to third parties which is a security
vulnerability.
You can change this behaviour by:

from urllib3 import Retry

Retry.DEFAULT_REMOVE_HEADERS_ON_REDIRECT = frozenset()
Retry.DEFAULT.remove_headers_on_redirect = Retry.DEFAULT_REMOVE_HEADERS_ON_REDIRECT

1.8 Authentication

InfluxDBClient supports three options how to authorize a connection:

• Token
• Username & Password
• HTTP Basic

1.6. Gzip support 13

influxdb_client, Release 1.48.0

1.8.1 Token

Use the token to authenticate to the InfluxDB API. In your API requests, an Authorization header will be sent. The
header value, provide the word Token followed by a space and an InfluxDB API token. The word token is case-sensitive.

from influxdb_client import InfluxDBClient

with InfluxDBClient(url="http://localhost:8086", token="my-token") as client

:warning:
Note that this is a preferred way how to authenticate to InfluxDB API.

1.8.2 Username & Password

Authenticates via username and password credentials. If successful, creates a new session for the user.

from influxdb_client import InfluxDBClient

with InfluxDBClient(url="http://localhost:8086", username="my-user", password="my-

˓→password") as client

:warning:
The username/password auth is based on the HTTP “Basic” authentication. The authorization ex-
pires when the time-to-live (TTL) (default 60 minutes) is reached and client produces unauthorized
exception.

1.8.3 HTTP Basic

Use this to enable basic authentication when talking to a InfluxDB 1.8.x that does not use auth-enabled but is protected
by a reverse proxy with basic authentication.

from influxdb_client import InfluxDBClient

with InfluxDBClient(url="http://localhost:8086", auth_basic=True, token="my-proxy-secret

˓→") as client

:warning:
Don’t use this when directly talking to InfluxDB 2.

1.9 Nanosecond precision

The Python’s datetime doesn’t support precision with nanoseconds so the library during writes and queries ignores
everything after microseconds.
If you would like to use datetime with nanosecond precision you should use pandas.Timestamp that is replacement
for python datetime.datetime object, and also you should set a proper DateTimeHelper to the client.

1.10 Handling Errors

Errors happen, and it’s important that your code is prepared for them. All client related exceptions are delivered from
InfluxDBError. If the exception cannot be recovered in the client it is returned to the application. These exceptions
are left for the developer to handle.
Almost all APIs directly return unrecoverable exceptions to be handled this way:

from influxdb_client import InfluxDBClient

from influxdb_client.client.exceptions import InfluxDBError
from influxdb_client.client.write_api import SYNCHRONOUS

with InfluxDBClient(url="http://localhost:8086", token="my-token", org="my-org") as␣

˓→client:

try:
client.write_api(write_options=SYNCHRONOUS).write("my-bucket", record="mem,tag=a␣
˓→value=86")

except InfluxDBError as e:
if e.response.status == 401:
raise Exception(f"Insufficient write permissions to 'my-bucket'.") from e
raise

The only exception is batching WriteAPI (for more info see Batching) where you need to register custom callbacks
to handle batch events. This is because this API runs in the background in a separate thread and isn’t possible to
directly return underlying exceptions.

from influxdb_client import InfluxDBClient

from influxdb_client.client.exceptions import InfluxDBError

class BatchingCallback(object):

def success(self, conf: (str, str, str), data: str):

print(f"Written batch: {conf}, data: {data}")

def error(self, conf: (str, str, str), data: str, exception: InfluxDBError):
print(f"Cannot write batch: {conf}, data: {data} due: {exception}")

def retry(self, conf: (str, str, str), data: str, exception: InfluxDBError):
print(f"Retryable error occurs for batch: {conf}, data: {data} retry: {exception}
˓→")

with InfluxDBClient(url="http://localhost:8086", token="my-token", org="my-org") as␣

˓→client:

callback = BatchingCallback()
with client.write_api(success_callback=callback.success,
error_callback=callback.error,
retry_callback=callback.retry) as write_api:
pass

16 Chapter 1. User Guide

 influxdb_client, Release 1.48.0

1.10.1 HTTP Retry Strategy

By default, the client uses a retry strategy only for batching writes (for more info see Batching). For other HTTP
requests there is no one retry strategy, but it could be configured by retries parameter of InfluxDBClient.
For more info about how configure HTTP retry see details in urllib3 documentation.

from urllib3 import Retry

from influxdb_client import InfluxDBClient

retries = Retry(connect=5, read=2, redirect=5)

client = InfluxDBClient(url="http://localhost:8086", token="my-token", org="my-org",␣
˓→retries=retries)

1.11 Logging

The client uses Python’s logging facility for logging the library activity. The following logger categories are exposed:
• influxdb_client.client.influxdb_client
• influxdb_client.client.influxdb_client_async
• influxdb_client.client.write_api
• influxdb_client.client.write_api_async
• influxdb_client.client.write.retry
• influxdb_client.client.write.dataframe_serializer
• influxdb_client.client.util.multiprocessing_helper
• influxdb_client.client.http
• influxdb_client.client.exceptions
The default logging level is warning without configured logger output. You can use the standard logger interface to
change the log level and handler:

import logging
import sys

from influxdb_client import InfluxDBClient

with InfluxDBClient(url="http://localhost:8086", token="my-token", org="my-org") as␣

˓→client:

for _, logger in client.conf.loggers.items():

logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
logger.addHandler(logging.StreamHandler(sys.stdout))

1.11. Logging 17
influxdb_client, Release 1.48.0

1.11.1 Debugging

For debug purpose you can enable verbose logging of HTTP requests and set the debug level to all client’s logger
categories by:

client = InfluxDBClient(url="http://localhost:8086", token="my-token", debug=True)

Both HTTP request headers and body will be logged to standard output.

}
write_api.write("my-bucket", "my-org", dictionary)

# Record as Point
from influxdb_client import Point
point = Point("h2o_feet").tag("location", "us-west").field("level", 125).
˓→time(1)

write_api.write("my-bucket", "my-org", point)

DataFrame:
If the data_frame_timestamp_column is not specified the index of Pandas DataFrame is used as a
timestamp for written data. The index can be PeriodIndex or its must be transformable to datetime
by pandas.to_datetime.
If you would like to transform a column to PeriodIndex, you can use something like:

42 Chapter 2. API Reference

 influxdb_client, Release 1.48.0

import pandas as pd

# DataFrame
data_frame = ...
# Set column as Index
data_frame.set_index('column_name', inplace=True)
# Transform index to PeriodIndex
data_frame.index = pd.to_datetime(data_frame.index, unit='s')

class influxdb_client.client.write.point.Point(measurement_name)
Point defines the values that will be written to the database.
Ref: https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/latest/reference/key-concepts/data-elements/#point
Initialize defaults.
field(field, value)
Add field with key and value.
static from_dict(dictionary: dict, write_precision: WritePrecision = 'ns', **kwargs)
Initialize point from ‘dict’ structure.
The expected dict structure is:
• measurement
• tags
• fields
• time
Example:

# Use default dictionary structure

dict_structure = {
"measurement": "h2o_feet",
"tags": {"location": "coyote_creek"},
"fields": {"water_level": 1.0},
"time": 1
}
point = Point.from_dict(dict_structure, WritePrecision.NS)

Example:

# Use custom dictionary structure

dictionary = {
"name": "sensor_pt859",
"location": "warehouse_125",
"version": "2021.06.05.5874",
"pressure": 125,
"temperature": 10,
"created": 1632208639,
}
point = Point.from_dict(dictionary,
write_precision=WritePrecision.S,
record_measurement_key="name",

(continued from previous page)

record_time_key="created",
record_tag_keys=["location", "version"],
record_field_keys=["pressure", "temperature"])

Int Types:
The following example shows how to configure the types of integers fields. It is useful when you want
to serialize integers always as float to avoid field type conflict or use unsigned 64-bit
integer as the type for serialization.

# Use custom dictionary structure

dict_structure = {
"measurement": "h2o_feet",
"tags": {"location": "coyote_creek"},
"fields": {
"water_level": 1.0,
"some_counter": 108913123234
},
"time": 1
}

point = Point.from_dict(dict_structure, field_types={"some_counter": "uint"}

˓→)

Parameters
• dictionary – dictionary for serialize into data Point
• write_precision – sets the precision for the supplied time values
Key record_measurement_key
key of dictionary with specified measurement
Key record_measurement_name
static measurement name for data Point
Key record_time_key
key of dictionary with specified timestamp
Key record_tag_keys
list of dictionary keys to use as a tag
Key record_field_keys
list of dictionary keys to use as a field
Key field_types
optional dictionary to specify types of serialized fields. Currently, is supported customization
for integer types. Possible integers types:
• int - serialize integers as “Signed 64-bit integers” - 9223372036854775807i (default
behaviour)
• uint - serialize integers as “Unsigned 64-bit integers” - 9223372036854775807u
• float - serialize integers as “IEEE-754 64-bit floating-point numbers”. Useful for unify
number types in your pipeline to avoid field type conflict - 9223372036854775807
The field_types can be also specified as part of incoming dictionary. For more info see an
example above.

async query_data_frame(query: str, org=None, data_frame_index: Optional[List[str]] = None, params:

Optional[dict] = None, use_extension_dtypes: bool = False)
Execute asynchronous Flux query and return DataFrame.

Note: If the query returns tables with differing schemas than the client generates a DataFrame for each
of them.

Parameters
• query – the Flux query
• org (str, Organization) – specifies the organization for executing the query;
Take the ID, Name or Organization. If not specified the default value from
InfluxDBClientAsync.org is used.
• data_frame_index – the list of columns that are used as DataFrame index
• params – bind parameters
• use_extension_dtypes – set to True to use panda’s extension data types. Useful for
queries with pivot function. When data has missing values, column data type may change
(to object or float64). Nullable extension types (Int64, Float64, boolean) support
panda.NA value. For more info, see https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/user_guide/missing_
data.html.
Returns
DataFrame or List[DataFrame]

Warning: For the optimal processing of the query results use the pivot() function which align
results as a table.

If you would like to omit boilerplate columns such as _result, _table, _start, . . . you can filter the record values
by following expression:

print({k: v for k, v in record.values.items() if k not in ['result', 'table', '_start',

˓→'_stop', '_measurement']})

DEVELOPMENT

The following document covers how to develop the InfluxDB client library locally. Including how to run tests and build
the docs.

• tl;dr
• Getting Started With Development
• Linting
• Testing
– Code Coverage
• Documentation Building

5.1 tl;dr

# from your forked repo, create and activate a virtualenv

python -m virtualenv venv
. venv/bin/activate
# install the library as editable with all dependencies
make install
# make edits
# run lint and tests
make lint test

5.2 Getting Started With Development

1. Install Python
Most distributions include Python by default, so before going too far, try running python --version
to see if it already exists. You may also have to specify python3 --version, for example, on Ubuntu.
2. Fork and clone the repo
The rest of this assumes you have cloned your fork of the upstream client library and are in the same
directory of the forked repo.
3. Set up a virtual environment.

95
influxdb_client, Release 1.48.0

Python virtual environments let you install specific versioned dependencies in a contained manner.
This way, you do not pollute or have conflicts on your system with different versions.

python -m virtualenv venv

. venv/bin/activate

Having a shell prompt change via starship or something similar is nice as it will let you know when
and which virtual environment in you are in.
To exit the virtual environment, run deactivate.
4. Install the client library
To install the local version of the client library run:

make install

This will install the library as editable with all dependencies. This includes all dependencies that are
used for all possible features as well as testing requirements.
5. Make changes and test
At this point, a user can make the required changes necessary and run any tests or scripts they have.
Before putting up a PR, the user should attempt to run the lint and tests locally. Lint will ensure the
formatting of the code, while tests will run integration tests against an InfluxDB instance. For details
on that set up see the next section.

make lint test

5.3 Linting

The library uses flake8 to do linting and can be run with:

make lint

5.4 Testing

The built-in tests assume that there is a running instance of InfluxDB 2.x up and running. This can be accomplished by
running the scripts/influxdb-restart.sh script. It will launch an InfluxDB 2.x instance with Docker and make
it available locally on port 8086.
Once InfluxDB is available, run all the tests with:

make test

96 Chapter 5. Development
 influxdb_client, Release 1.48.0

5.4.1 Code Coverage

After running the tests, an HTML report of the tests is available in the htmlcov directory. Users can open html/
index.html file in a browser and see a full report for code coverage across the whole project. Clicking on a specific
file will show a line-by-line report of what lines were or were not covered.

5.5 Documentation Building

The docs are built using Sphinx. To build all the docs run:

make docs

This will build and produce a sample version of the web docs at docs/_build/html/index.html. From there the
user can view the entire site and ensure changes are rendered correctly.

This repository contains the Python client library for use with InfluxDB 2.x and Flux. InfluxDB 3.x users should instead
use the lightweight v3 client library. InfluxDB 1.x users should use the v1 client library.
For ease of migration and a consistent query and write experience, v2 users should consider using InfluxQL and the v1
client library.
The API of the influxdb-client-python is not the backwards-compatible with the old one - influxdb-python.

INSTALLATION

InfluxDB python library uses RxPY - The Reactive Extensions for Python (RxPY).
Python 3.7 or later is required.
:warning:
It is recommended to use ciso8601 with client for parsing dates. ciso8601 is much faster than built-in
Python datetime. Since it’s written as a C module the best way is build it from sources:
Windows:
You have to install Visual C++ Build Tools 2015 to build ciso8601 by pip.
conda:
Install from sources: conda install -c conda-forge/label/cf202003 ciso8601.

8.1 pip install

The python package is hosted on PyPI, you can install latest version directly:

pip install 'influxdb-client[ciso]'

Then import the package:

import influxdb_client

If your application uses async/await in Python you can install with the async extra:

$ pip install influxdb-client[async]

For more info see How to use Asyncio.

103
influxdb_client, Release 1.48.0

8.2 Setuptools

Install via Setuptools.

python setup.py install --user

(or sudo python setup.py install to install the package for all users)

104 Chapter 8. Installation

GETTING STARTED

Please follow the Installation and then run the following:

from influxdb_client import InfluxDBClient, Point

from influxdb_client.client.write_api import SYNCHRONOUS

bucket = "my-bucket"

client = InfluxDBClient(url="http://localhost:8086", token="my-token", org="my-org")

write_api = client.write_api(write_options=SYNCHRONOUS)
query_api = client.query_api()

p = Point("my_measurement").tag("location", "Prague").field("temperature", 25.3)

CLIENT CONFIGURATION

10.1 Via File

A client can be configured via *.ini file in segment influx2.

The following options are supported:
• url - the url to connect to InfluxDB
• org - default destination organization for writes and queries
• token - the token to use for the authorization
• timeout - socket timeout in ms (default value is 10000)
• verify_ssl - set this to false to skip verifying SSL certificate when calling API from https server
• ssl_ca_cert - set this to customize the certificate file to verify the peer
• cert_file - path to the certificate that will be used for mTLS authentication
• cert_key_file - path to the file contains private key for mTLS certificate
• cert_key_password - string or function which returns password for decrypting the mTLS private key
• connection_pool_maxsize - set the number of connections to save that can be reused by urllib3
• auth_basic - enable http basic authentication when talking to a InfluxDB 1.8.x without authentication but is
accessed via reverse proxy with basic authentication (defaults to false)
• profilers - set the list of enabled Flux profilers

self.client = InfluxDBClient.from_config_file("config.ini")

[influx2]
url=http://localhost:8086
org=my-org
token=my-token
timeout=6000
verify_ssl=False

107
influxdb_client, Release 1.48.0

10.2 Via Environment Properties

A client can be configured via environment properties.

Supported properties are:
• INFLUXDB_V2_URL - the url to connect to InfluxDB
• INFLUXDB_V2_ORG - default destination organization for writes and queries
• INFLUXDB_V2_TOKEN - the token to use for the authorization
• INFLUXDB_V2_TIMEOUT - socket timeout in ms (default value is 10000)
• INFLUXDB_V2_VERIFY_SSL - set this to false to skip verifying SSL certificate when calling API from https
server
• INFLUXDB_V2_SSL_CA_CERT - set this to customize the certificate file to verify the peer
• INFLUXDB_V2_CERT_FILE - path to the certificate that will be used for mTLS authentication
• INFLUXDB_V2_CERT_KEY_FILE - path to the file contains private key for mTLS certificate
• INFLUXDB_V2_CERT_KEY_PASSWORD - string or function which returns password for decrypting the mTLS pri-
vate key
• INFLUXDB_V2_CONNECTION_POOL_MAXSIZE - set the number of connections to save that can be reused by
urllib3
• INFLUXDB_V2_AUTH_BASIC - enable http basic authentication when talking to a InfluxDB 1.8.x without authen-
tication but is accessed via reverse proxy with basic authentication (defaults to false)
• INFLUXDB_V2_PROFILERS - set the list of enabled Flux profilers

self.client = InfluxDBClient.from_env_properties()

10.3 Profile query

The Flux Profiler package provides performance profiling tools for Flux queries and operations.
You can enable printing profiler information of the Flux query in client library by:
• set QueryOptions.profilers in QueryApi,
• set INFLUXDB_V2_PROFILERS environment variable,
• set profilers option in configuration file.
When the profiler is enabled, the result of flux query contains additional tables “profiler/”. In order to have consistent
behaviour with enabled/disabled profiler, FluxCSVParser excludes “profiler/” measurements from result.
Example how to enable profilers using API:

q = '''
from(bucket: stringParam)
|> range(start: -5m, stop: now())
|> filter(fn: (r) => r._measurement == "mem")
|> filter(fn: (r) => r._field == "available" or r._field == "free" or r._field ==
˓→"used")

|> aggregateWindow(every: 1m, fn: mean)

(continues on next page)

108 Chapter 10. Client configuration

 influxdb_client, Release 1.48.0

(continued from previous page)

|> pivot(rowKey:["_time"], columnKey: ["_field"], valueColumn: "_value")
'''
p = {
"stringParam": "my-bucket",
}

query_api = client.query_api(query_options=QueryOptions(profilers=["query", "operator"]))

csv_result = query_api.query(query=q, params=p)

Example of a profiler output:

===============
Profiler: query
===============

from(bucket: stringParam)
|> range(start: -5m, stop: now())
|> filter(fn: (r) => r._measurement == "mem")
|> filter(fn: (r) => r._field == "available" or r._field == "free" or r._field == "used
˓→")

|> aggregateWindow(every: 1m, fn: mean)

|> pivot(rowKey:["_time"], columnKey: ["_field"], valueColumn: "_value")

DurationSum : 940500
MeanDuration : 940500.0

You can also use callback function to get profilers output. Return value of this callback is type of FluxRecord.
Example how to use profilers with callback:

class ProfilersCallback(object):
def __init__(self):
self.records = []

def __call__(self, flux_record):

self.records.append(flux_record.values)

callback = ProfilersCallback()

query_api = client.query_api(query_options=QueryOptions(profilers=["query", "operator"],␣

˓→profiler_callback=callback))

tables = query_api.query('from(bucket:"my-bucket") |> range(start: -10m)')

for profiler in callback.records:

print(f'Custom processing of profiler result: {profiler}')

Example output of this callback:
