Examples: how to apply a template or stack
Authentication credentials
The examples below assume your InfluxDB host, organization, and token are
provided by either the active influx
CLI configuration or by environment variables (INFLUX_HOST
, INFLUX_ORG
, and INFLUX_TOKEN
).
If you do not have a CLI configuration set up or the environment variables set, include these required credentials for each command with the following flags:
--host
: InfluxDB host-o, --org
or--org-id
: InfluxDB organization name or ID-t, --token
: InfluxDB API token
- from a file
- from a URL
- from a stack that has associated templates
- a template to a stack
- multiple template files together
- a template from stdin
- all templates in a directory
- recursively from a directory
- from multiple sources
- skip resources
Apply a template from a file
influx apply --file path/to/template.json
Apply a template from a URL
influx apply --file https://raw.githubusercontent.com/influxdata/community-templates/master/docker/docker.yml
Apply a stack that has associated templates
To apply all templates associated with a stack ID to a new stack:
influx apply --stack-id $STACK_ID
Apply a template to a stack
influx apply --file path/to/template.json --stack-id $STACK_ID
Apply multiple template files together
influx apply \
--file path/to/template_1.json \
--file path/to/template_2.yml
Apply a template from stdin
cat template.json | influx apply --encoding json
Apply all templates in a directory
influx apply --file path/to/template_directory
Recursively apply templates from a directory
influx apply --recurse --file path/to/template_directory
Apply templates from multiple sources
influx apply \
--file path/to/template.yml
--file path/to/templates_directory
--file https://example.com/template.json
Apply a template, but skip resources
# The following example skips all buckets and the dashboard
# whose metadata.name field matches "example-dashboard".
# Filter format:
# --filter=kind=Bucket
# --filter=resource=Label:$Label_TMPL_NAME
influx apply \
--file path/to/template.yml \
--filter kind=Bucket \
--filter resource=Dashboard:example-dashboard
