DISCLAIMER: I am not a python developer, this was thrown together using the help of google and stack overflow. We needed a easy way to backup/restore our influx databases into S3. This script accomplishes that, but could probably be cleaned up/improved greatly. If anyone comes across this project and finds it useful, I'd really apprecate any feedback/improvements.
Download script, insert your AWS Access ID, secret key, bucket name, and a folder you want to upload to (I default to a folder called influxdb). You need to set the following:
backup_bucket = '<put your bucket name here>'
access_key_id = '<insert your aws access key here>'
secret_key = '<insert your secret access key here>'
upload_folder = '<leave as influxdb, or insert a folder name here>'Backup a database:
./influx_to_s3.py -b graphiteList restore points for a database:
./influx_to_s3.py -rp -d [Database Name]
root@metrics:/home/erichardson/influx_to_s3# ./influx_to_s3.py -rp -d graphite
