nut-influxdbv2

Docker image to pulls data from a NUT server and push it to an InfluxDB bucket. Based on work of mihai-cindea [https://github.com/mihai-cindea/nut-influxdb-exporter)

Changes

Updated for InfluxDBv2. Changed outputted values. Poll multiple NUT servers. Poll internal batteries on MacOS using the NUT macosx-ups driver.

Roadmap

Telegraf 1.24 introduced built-in support for NUTS servers https://docs.influxdata.com/telegraf/v1.24/plugins/#input-upsd and https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/blob/release-1.24/plugins/inputs/upsd/README.md, as implemented with this PR https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/pull/9890/files#diff-60ad28a279b042acced351b6dd19a9a339d8349d6ab603054345bd23bd279462. The use of the standard telegraf input plugins is prefered for a robust implementation and this code will be no longer be maintained as my personal use-case is meet by the current input plugin.

Setup

NUT Servers

• Get IP address of NUT servers
• Create list of IPs: ['IP1','IP2', ...]
• Create list of hostnames (mapped to hosts in Influx): ['Host1','Host2', ...]

InfluxDBv2 Setup

Setup InfluxDBv2, create bucket and create a token with write permissions for bucket.
