Collectd support (allow 25826 UDP port to the container) #88

SebLz posted onGitHub

Collectd listener allows to push detailled systems statistics into the influxdb. It's used for example to monitor OpenWRT routers. Currently, only port 8086 of the Influx container is reachable from outside. A new one would be required to leverage the collecd feature of Influxdb. All other Collectd parameters are configurable in the addon configuration page using environnent variables (my config file as example):

auth: true
reporting: true
ssl: true
certfile: fullchain.pem
keyfile: privkey.pem
envvars:
  - name: INFLUXDB_COLLECTD_ENABLED
    value: 'true'
  - name: INFLUXDB_COLLECTD_DATABASE
    value: collectd
  - name: INFLUXDB_COLLECTD_TYPESDB
    value: /data/collectd/types.db
  - name: INFLUXDB_COLLECTD_BIND_ADDRESS
    value: ':25826'

This seems related to an older feature request: https://github.com/hassio-addons/addon-influxdb/issues/1

Please look up the history, you'll notice this has been closed a couple of time before.

Thanks 👍

Hello frenck, I did read the full history of the previously opened issue (https://github.com/hassio-addons/addon-influxdb/issues/1) as well as of the forum (https://community.home-assistant.io/t/home-assistant-community-add-on-influxdb/54491/60) but I still don't understand how this solves this case. If I understand correctly, the idea is to run a telegraf agent instead of collectd, but there is no such package on classic consumer grade MIPS router. What have I missed ?

Would be great to allow opening port 25826 on the addon configuration page. This is a simple change that will give possibility to use collectd - quite easy to configure on openwrt routers.
