Grafana ships with **built in** support for InfluxDB (>= 1.4.1).

Use this datasource if you want to use Flux to query your InfluxDB.
Feel free to run this datasource side-by-side with the non-Flux datasource.
If you point both datasources to the same InfluxDB instance, you can switch query mode by switching the datasources.

## Getting Started

While this plugin is in BETA, it is not frequently pushed to the central plugin directory on grafana.com.
Until then, please follow these steps:

1. Make sure you have Grafana and Influx v1.7+ running.
2. Download [the latest release](https://github.com/grafana/influxdb-flux-datasource/releases) into Grafana's `data/plugins` directory and unzip it.
3. Restart Grafana
4. Add Flux as a datasource using the hostname that your Influx DB is running on and port 8086.

## Supported Template Variable Macros:

* List all measurements for a given database: `measurements(database)`
