InfluxDB is an open-source time series database designed to handle large volumes of time-stamped data from various sources. The Python client library for InfluxDB provides a powerful way to interact with the database, allowing users to write, query, and manage data using Flux, its functional data scripting language. The library supports various APIs, including WriteApi, QueryApi, DeleteApi, TasksApi, InvokableScriptsApi, and InfluxDB administration APIs. Users can connect to InfluxDB using a client library that requires connection information, such as URL, access token, organization, and other parameters. The client library allows users to prepare data in several ways, including string format, dictionary format, Point class, Pandas DataFrame, Data Class, and Named Tuple. The library also supports asynchronous writes and provides various options for customizing the write process.
