mysql config

[skynet]

Tried different options, but couldn't make it to work:

[mysql]
servers = ["127.0.0.1"]

Any chance for a better documentation for the configuration of these plugins?

This works for me

servers = ["user:password@tcp(mysqlservername:3306)/"]

[skynet]

That worked for me too. 👍

This needs to be better documented, thanks for the report

Hi @skynet,

I just took a look at the sample config and actually find some pretty helpful documentation:

# Read metrics from one or many mysql servers
[mysql]

# specify servers via a url matching:
#  [username[:password]@][protocol[(address)]]/[?tls=[true|false|skip-verify]]
#  e.g. root:root@http://10.0.0.18/?tls=false
#
# If no servers are specified, then localhost is used as the host.
servers = ["localhost"]

Does that cover what you need? This can be viewed by running telegraf -sample-config

[skynet]

yes, it helps

[skynet]

any hint on how do we tag each server? tx

[sparrc]

@skynet, that is not supported at the moment, could you open a separate issue for tagging each server with something like a mysql_server= tag?

[skynet]

Yes, thanks!
