Summary

This post walks through how to visualize dynamically updating time series data stored in InfluxDB using the JavaScript graphing library Dygraphs. To begin, sample data from InfluxDB is queried periodically on the frontend, and then fetched from InfluxDB using the HTTP API. The fetched data is then used to construct a graph using the Dygraphs constructor function, which includes options such as title, labels, and stroke width. Additionally, an interval is set to fetch new data every five minutes, allowing for dynamic updates of the graph over time.
