Export price data from Discogs listings to InfluxDB
I wanted a way to visually track the prices of expensive records in Grafana but Telegraf and Discogs API had no way of working together. So I created this small tool written in Go to pull prices from Discogs API (using a fork of go-discogs) and push them to InfluxDB using influxdbv2 client.
The fork of is locally embedded in the project because the changes for Discogs' Marketplace API are not available in upstream.
Download one of the releases from the Releases page.
You can very easily build the binaries yourself. A Makefile is included for easier building for all different platforms:
# This will build ARM and x64
$ make build
# This will simply build using the standard go toolchain
$ go build .You will need to create a config.toml file with your credentials for InfluxDB and Discogs. By default, discogs-influxb will look in its own directory for a config.toml file, but an alternative path can be provided using --config <path>
A sample config file is included in config.sample.toml. Edit that one with your correct credentials and rename it to config.toml
You can invoke the binary to just trigger a one time push to InfluxDB.
A sample systemd service and a timer are included to run discogs-influxdb at regular intervals.
Copy the files for systemd over to /etc/systemd/system/ and then copy the binary and config file for discogs-influxdb over to /opt/discogs-influxdb (or change the path in the systemd service), afterwards reload and restart:
$ cp discogs-influxdb.service /etc/system/systemd/
$ cp discogs-influxdb.timer /etc/system/systemd/
$ systemctl daemon-reload
$ systemctl enable discogs-influxdb.timer
$ systemctl start discogs-influxdb.servicepm2, cronjobs, docker, bash script...
--config <path>, path to the config.toml file to use--verbose, show verbose output
