# Test Flows README
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To test this node, we use influxdb running in a docker container. Currently testing with influxdb 1.6.3
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Set up influxdb using docker. See documentation at https://hub.docker.com/_/influxdb/
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Generating influxdb configuration
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We have a configuration file already set up for use with a self signed cert. To generate a new, fresh config file locally:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
docker run --rm influxdb:1.8 influxd config > influxdb.conf
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Set up self signed certificate
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
From the [influxdb admim documentation](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.6/administration/https_setup/) you can set up
|
||
|
|
self signed SSL cert as follows:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
sudo openssl req -x509 -nodes -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout ./keys/influxdb-selfsigned.key -out ./keys/influxdb-selfsigned.crt
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Answer the questions as you like.

||

|
## Running influxdb for tests
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To run influxdb using the config file in the current directory:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
docker run --name=influxdb -p 8086:8086 \
|
||
|
|
-v $PWD/influxdb.conf:/etc/influxdb/influxdb.conf:ro \
|
||
|
|
-v $PWD/ssl:/etc/ssl \
|
||
|
|
influxdb:1.8 -config /etc/influxdb/influxdb.conf
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To run the influxdb CLI against this container using a self-signed cert:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
docker run --rm --link=influxdb -it influxdb influx -ssl -unsafeSsl -host influxdb
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can then execute CLI commands to create databases, make queries, etc..
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
First, create a `test database to use by the test flows.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
create database test
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Then import the test flows into Node-RED and ensure they work.
