Yardstick executes Storperf test case (TC074), posting test job to Storperf + container via ReST API. After the test job is completed, Yardstick reads + test results via ReST API from Storperf and posts test data to the influxDB. + +2. Additionally, Storperf can run tests by itself and post the test result + directly to the InfluxDB. The method for posting data directly to influxDB + will be supported in the future. + +Our plan is to support rest-api in D release so that other testing projects can +call the rest-api to use yardstick dispatcher service to push data to +Yardstick's InfluxDB database. + +For now, InfluxDB only supports line protocol, and the json protocol is +deprecated. + +Take ping test case for example, the ``raw_result`` is json format like this: +:: + + "benchmark": { + "timestamp": 1470315409.868095, + "errors": "", + "data": { + "rtt": { + "ares": 1.125 + } + }, + "sequence": 1 + }, + "runner_id": 2625 + } + +With the help of "influxdb_line_protocol", the json is transform to like below +as a line string:: + + 'ping,deploy_scenario=unknown,host=athena.demo,installer=unknown,pod_name=unknown, + runner_id=2625,scenarios=Ping,target=ares.demo,task_id=77755f38-1f6a-4667-a7f3- + 301c99963656,version=unknown rtt.ares=1.125 1470315409868094976' + +So, for data output of json format, you just need to transform json into line +format and call influxdb api to post the data into the database. All this +function has been implemented in Influxdb_. If you need support on this, please +contact Mingjiang_. +:: + + curl -i -XPOST 'http://104.197.68.199:8086/write?db=yardstick' -- + data-binary 'ping,deploy_scenario=unknown,host=athena.demo,installer=unknown, ...' + +Grafana will be used for visualizing the collected test data, which is shown in +Visual_.
