newman-reporter-influxdb

InfluxDB reporter for Newman that sends the test results information to InfluxDB (1.x, 2.x) which can be used from Grafana to build dashboard.

npm version npm downloads code license npm publish

Getting Started

  1. Install newman
  2. Install newman-reporter-influxdb
  3. Install InfluxDB (Get the server address, port, database name, etc)

Prerequisites

  1. node and npm
  2. newman - npm install -g newman
  3. InfluxDB

Installation

npm install -g newman-reporter-influxdb

Installation should be done globally if newman is installed globally, otherwise install without -g option


Usage

Specify -r influxdb option while running the collection

newman run <collection-url> -r influxdb \
  --reporter-influxdb-server <server-ip> \
  --reporter-influxdb-port <server-port> \
  --reporter-influxdb-name <database-name> \
  --reporter-influxdb-measurement <measurement-name>
  • By default, reporter consider influxdb version 1.x (i.e 1.7, 1.8)
  • In case of InfluxDB version 2, specify version, org and bucket name as well
    • --reporter-influxdb-version 2
    • --reporter-influxdb-org <org-name>
    • --reporter-influxdb-name <bucket-name>

Example:

# For InfluxDB version 1.x

newman run https://www.getpostman.com/collections/631643-f695cab7-6878-eb55-7943-ad88e1ccfd65-JsLv -r influxdb \
--reporter-influxdb-server localhost \
--reporter-influxdb-port 8086 \
--reporter-influxdb-name newman_reports \
--reporter-influxdb-measurement api_results

# For InfluxDB version 2.x

newman run https://www.getpostman.com/collections/631643-f695cab7-6878-eb55-7943-ad88e1ccfd65-JsLv -r influxdb \
  --reporter-influxdb-server localhost \
  --reporter-influxdb-port 8086 \
  --reporter-influxdb-org viz \
  --reporter-influxdb-version 2 \
  --reporter-influxdb-username viz \
  --reporter-influxdb-password db123456 \
  --reporter-influxdb-name viz \
  --reporter-influxdb-measurement api_results

[udp]
  enabled = true
  bind-address = ":8086"
  database = "newman_reports_udp"
  batch-size = 1000
  batch-timeout = “1s”


To write, just send newline separated line protocol over UDP.  Can send one point at a time (not very performant) or send batches.
