Issue Type:	Improvement
Assignee:	Aleksi Simell
Components:	influxdb-plugin
Created:	2018-11-05 08:26
Priority:	Major
Reporter:	Mohamed Nazeer Mohamed Ibrahim

I want to customize the tags and keys in the collected data. As of now only the project name is the tag in influxdb. But i want add some more fields as tags in influxdb.

Example

I want to filter the data build wise. So that i want to add the build number as tag in the influxdb.

Custom tags were added in PR 32 (https://github.com/jenkinsci/influxdb-plugin/pull/32). Does this already address your issue? You can add build number tag to your build with adding a jenkins-env-parameter tag build_number=${BUILD_NUMBER}.

Thanks for replying. The pull request 32 will solve our one requirement. But we have one more requirement blocking our progress. Which is already created as ticket by someone else. The ticket is https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-53360.

We are publishing data as step configuration of InfluxDb as below

step([$class: 'InfluxDbPublisher', customData: myDataMap, customDataMap: myCustomDataMap, customPrefix: null, target: 'Influxtarget'])

But we do not know how to configure the jenkins-env-parameter tag build_number=${BUILD_NUMBER}. And also we could not find the UI to configure the same.

Our Jenkins version is Jenkins ver. 2.107.3 and InfluxDb Plugin version is 1.20

Mohamed Nazeer Mohamed Ibrahim You can add build number tag in your pipeline by adding for example

 
                                                                jenkinsEnvParameterTag: 'build_number=' + env.BUILD_NUMBER,

to your step.

My current project has kept me busy for a very long time, so I haven't had time to do any work on any ticket for quite some time. However, now my project is coming to an end so in the near future I might have more time to work on new features for the plugin (instead of just bug fixes and pull requests).

In short: Nothing done whatsoever.

Sorry to reopen this issue.

The given solution is effect only for jenkins_data measurement. But the same is not reflect in other measurements which are collected by the same plugin such as "jacaco_data, suite_results, rf_results...etc"

Thanks in advance

We have implemented the given solution but it seems the tags are not present in the databases.

The influx version is : 1.5.4

jenkins Configuration is :

step([$class: 'InfluxDbPublisher', customData: myDataMap, customDataMap: null, customPrefix: null, target: 'Jenkins Build Status', jenkinsEnvParameterTag: 'build_number=' + env.BUILD_NUMBER])

When we execute the below query in influxdb it shows nothing.

SHOW TAG KEYS FROM "testcase_point"

That is because with the current configuration the jenkinsEnvParameterTag adds the tags only to the measurement jenkins_data as documented. I will try to add those tags to all measurements once I find time.

Hi Aleksi Simell,

Is there any tentative time when this will be available?

Thanks!

_*jenkinsEnvParameterField*_ ?

Hi _peedus,

I had completely forgotten this one. I made a note for myself to have this in my own "backlog". I will try to make this ASAP, but might not make it for the next release (I try to make releases ~once a month or so).
