Open arukiidou opened 6 months ago

arukiidou commented 6 months ago

Feature Description

influxv1 is already eol, will this still remain the core output module?

https://www.influxdata.com/blog/influxdb-oss-and-enterprise-roadmap-update-from-influxdays-emea/#heading2

Suggested Solution (optional)

Demote this to xk6-output-influxdbv1

Already existing or connected issues / PRs (optional)

Hi @arukiidou,

The idea discussed within the team is that we'd like to switch to OTel as a default for k6. And, considering that Influx has been causing issues in the past and is not a reliable solution anymore, we don't have active plans to officially maintain Influx outputs for versions v2, v3, etc.

Regarding the existing output (Influx v1), we'll most likely moved into a (separate) extension and put into maintenance mode. But for now, it will remain as-is for a while.

Does that sound good? Any thoughts?

Thanks! 🙇🏻

thanks. If you will put into maintenance mode, I am interested in taking on xk6-influxdb-output

Do you mean that you want to take the responsibility of maintaining xk6-output-influxdbv1 (the current implementation), or that you would like to work on your own extension to add support for the other versions of Influx? 🤔

Take xk6-output-influxdbv1 in my repository.
