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.

Installation

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>'

Usage

Backup a database:

./influx_to_s3.py -b graphite

List 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

2016-06-08_154445 PDT influxdb/graphite_1465425555.tar.gz
2016-06-09_145035 PDT influxdb/graphite_1465508713.tar.gz

Restore a database:

./influx_to_s3.py -r [full_restore_point] -d [database Name] -p [path to restore to]
 ./influx_to_s3.py -r influxdb/graphite_1465508713.tar.gz -d graphite -p /var/tmp/restore/

getting help:

./influx_to_s3.py -h
