Tutorial and examples on how to use APIs

Open pkoosha opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

Hi,

I am trying to use your library to be integrated to my C program. unfortunately I do not see any tutorial on how to use APIs and examples. Could you please refer me to one? Thanks.

The readme contains examples which should cover basic usage. Please see test/ directory for more.

Let me know, if there's something missing.

I found some useful examples online but there is not documentation on how to update values or setting retention policy through APIs. If you could add these they would greatly help. Thanks

Ah, I see. Now, the library supports only features listed in the public interface. Since it's main purpose was write / read, not administration (I guess …), features like retention strategy aren't available (yet).

Do you have some specific use cases or features needed?

There's an API for executing any commands now: https://github.com/offa/influxdb-cxx#execute-cmd
