1. Introduction

taosAdapter is a companion tool for TDengine, serving as a bridge and adapter between the TDengine cluster and applications. It provides an easy and efficient way to ingest data directly from data collection agents (such as Telegraf, StatsD, collectd, etc.). It also offers InfluxDB/OpenTSDB compatible data ingestion interfaces, allowing InfluxDB/OpenTSDB applications to be seamlessly ported to TDengine. The connectors of TDengine in various languages communicate with TDengine through the WebSocket interface, hence the taosAdapter must be installed.

2. Documentation

• To use taosAdapter, please refer to the taosAdapter Reference.
• This quick guide is mainly for developers who like to contribute/build/test the taosAdapter by themselves. To learn about TDengine, you can visit the official documentation.

3. Prerequisites

• Go 1.17 or above is installed and CGO is enabled export CGO_ENABLED=1.
• TDengine has been deployed locally. For specific steps, please refer to Deploy TDengine. Please make sure taosd has been started.

4. Build

Execute go build in the project directory to build the project.

5. Testing

5.1 Test Execution

1. Before running tests, ensure that the TDengine server is installed and the taosd is running. The database should be empty.
2. In the project directory, run go test ./... to execute the tests. The tests will connect to the local TDengine server and taosAdapter for testing.
3. The output result PASS means the test passed, while FAIL means the test failed. For detailed information, run go test -v ./....

5.2 Test Case Addition

Add test cases to the *_test.go file to ensure that the test cases cover the new code.

5.3 Performance Testing

Performance testing is in progress.

6. CI/CD

• Build Workflow
• Code Coverage
