Usage

Callback style

Create client

var tsguru = require("node-tsguru");
tsguru({token: "abc123456789def", databaseID: "abc123456789def"}, function(err, client) {
	if (err) throw err;
	console.log("connected");
	// interact with client like demonstrated below
});

Insert single value (simple time series with one column)

client.insert("sensor01", 123.45, function(err) {
	if (err) throw err;
	console.log("inserted");
});

Insert single value (simple time series with two columns)

client.insert("sensor01", 123.45, 100, function(err) {
	if (err) throw err;
	console.log("inserted");
});

Insert single value (symbol time series with one column)

client.insertSymbol("sensor", "sen01", 123.45, function(err) {
	if (err) throw err;
	console.log("inserted");
});

Insert single value (symbol time series with three columns)

client.insertSymbol("sensor", "sen01", 123.45, 10, true, function(err) {
	if (err) throw err;
	console.log("inserted");
});

Insert multiple values

client.bulk()
	.add("sensor01", 123.45)
	.add("sensor02", 234.56)
	.add("sensor03", 345.67)
	.add("sensor04", 456.78)
	.insert(function(err) {
		if (err) throw err;
		console.log("bulk inserted");
	});

Buffer values

var buffer = client.buffer({delay: 250});
buffer.on("error", function(err) {
	throw err;
});
buffer.on("flushed", function() {
	console.log("flushed");
});
setInterval(function() {
	buffer.add("sensor01", 123.45);
}, 100);

buffer() returns an [EventEmitter](https://nodejs.org/api/events.html#events_class_eventemitter). Emitted events are error, flush and flushed.

Promise style

Create client

var tsguru = require("node-tsguru");
tsguru({token: "abc123456789def", databaseID: "abc123456789def"})
	.then(function(client) {
		console.log("connected");
		// interact with client like demonstrated below
	})
	.catch(function(err) {
		console.log(err);
	});

Insert single value

client.insert("sensor01", 123.45)
	.then(function(client) {
		console.log("inserted");
	})
	.catch(function(err) {
		console.log(err);
	});

Insert multiple values

client.bulk()
	.add("sensor01", 123.45)
	.add("sensor02", 234.56)
	.add("sensor03", 345.67)
	.add("sensor04", 456.78)
	.insert()
		.then(function(client) {
			console.log("bulk inserted");
		})
		.catch(function(err) {
			console.log(err);
		});

API

(params[, cb])

• params: Object
  • token: String
  • databaseID: String
  • timeout: Number in milliseconds (optional, default: 10000)
• cb: Function(err, client) (optional)
  • err: Error or undefined
  • client: Client or undefined

returns a Promise if no cb was supplied

Client

Client is an [EventEmitter](https://nodejs.org/api/events.html#events_class_eventemitter).

insert(timeseriesName, value1[, value2[, ...]][, cb])

Insert into a simple time series.

• timeseriesName: String
• value1 ... valueN: Number, Boolean or String
• cb: Function(err) (optional)
  • err: Error or undefined

returns a Promise if no cb was supplied

insertSymbol(timeseriesName, symbol, value1[, value2[, ...]][, cb])

Insert into a symbol time series.

• timeseriesName: String
• symbol: String
• value1 ... valueN: Number, Boolean or String
• cb: Function(err) (optional)
  • err: Error or undefined

returns a Promise if no cb was supplied

bulk()

returns a Bulk

Bulk

add(timeseriesName, value1[, value2[, ...]])

Add to a simple time series.

• timeseriesName: String
• value1 ... valueN: Number, Boolean or String

addSymbol(timeseriesName, symbol, value1[, value2[, ...]])

Add to a symbol time series.

• timeseriesName: String
• symbol: String
• value1 ... valueN: Number, Boolean or String

insert([cb])

Insert takes care about maximal allowed body size. A single insert can be split into multiple POST calls if the HTTP body gets to large.

• cb: Function(err) (optional)
  • err: Error or undefined

returns a Promise if no cb was supplied

buffer(params)

• params: Object
  • delay: Number - delay in milliseconds

returns a Buffer

Buffer

add(timeseriesName, value1[, value2[, ...]])

Add to a simple time series.

• timeseriesName: String
• value1 ... valueN: Number, Boolean or String

addSymbol(timeseriesName, symbol, value1[, value2[, ...]])

Add to a symbol time series.

• timeseriesName: String
• symbol: String
• value1 ... valueN: Number, Boolean or String

close([cb])

Flush the buffer and stop the interval timer. No more adds after close!

• cb: Function(err) (optional)
  • err: Error or undefined

returns a Promise if no cb was supplied
