InfluxDB and Kapacitor integration

The service definition provided with IOTstack assumes dependencies on both InfluxDB and Kapacitor.

Upgrading Chronograf

You can update the container via:

$ cd ~/IOTstack
$ docker compose pull
$ docker compose up -d
$ docker system prune -f

In words:

• docker compose pull downloads any newer images;
• docker compose up -d causes any newly-downloaded images to be instantiated as containers (replacing the old containers); and
• the prune gets rid of the outdated images.

Chronograf version pinning

If you need to pin to a particular version:

1. Set your working directory:

   $ cd ~/IOTstack
   

2. Use your favourite text editor to open/create an override file at the following path:

   ./services/chronograf/override.yml
   

3. Make the content of that file look like this:

   chronograf:
     image: chronograf:1.10
   

   Save the file.

4. Rebuild your stack, and start the container:

   $ ./iotstack_menu.sh build
   $ docker compose up -d chronograf
