schema-influx-to-clickhouse.py - Generate table schemas for Clickhouse based on influxdb measurements.
line-protocol-to-clickhouse.py - Load influxdb line-protocol backup data into Clickhouse.

influx-backup.py

InfluxDB backup/restore script using HTTP API and line-protocol format.

Use InfluxDB HTTP API
Backup raw data into text files in line-protocol format
Restore from a backup
Chunked read/write
Separate file for each measurement
Backup/restore individual measurements
Backup/restore specific retention
Incremental backups using "since", "until" date/time arguments
Delayed restore
Gzip support for backup/restore process

It is recommended to do a delayed restore using --restore-chunk-delay, --restore-measurement-delay so your InfluxDB instance does not run out of memory or IO pretty fast.

Usage

  --restore-measurement-delay RESTORE_MEASUREMENT_DELAY
                        restore delay in sec or subsec between measurements

Examples

Dump stats db:

./influx-backup.py --url https://influxdb.localhost:8086 --user admin --dump --dump-db stats --dir stats

Dump heartbeat measurement from stats db with data until 2017-09-01:

./influx-backup.py --url https://influxdb.localhost:8086 --user admin --dump --dump-db stats --dir stats \
    --dump-until 2017-09-01 --measurements heartbeat

NOTE: If you get ChunkedEncodingError on dump, try to limit the data set using "since", "until" arguments.

Restore from stats dir into stats_new db:

./influx-backup.py --url https://influxdb.localhost:8086 --user admin --restore --restore-db stats_new \
    --dir stats

Restore only heartbeat measurement from stats dir into stats_new db:

./influx-backup.py --url https://influxdb.localhost:8086 --user admin --restore --restore-db stats_new \
    --dir stats --measurements heartbeat
