I don't want use docker

[pangqiss1986]

dear:
THE mtr monitor is very good!.BUT I don't want to use docker. Now I install influxdb.How can I create database ,tables,column?
and THE save_data.py hava you python2 ?
Thank you!

check available options here:
https://github.com/carbolymer/mtr-monitor/blob/master/mtr-monitor.sh#L10

You don't need to create schema in influxdb. Everything is done in https://github.com/carbolymer/mtr-monitor/blob/master/save_data.py

You just need to set correct port and host in mtr-monitor.sh

[pangqiss1986]

this is my mtr-monitor.sh
#!/bin/bash

number of pings sent

CYCLES=30

inverval between MTR tests in seconds

INTERVAL=30
MTR_HOSTS=("114.114.114.114")

if you need to change it, change also in influx-cli.sh

INFLUXDB_HOST="localhost"
INFLUXDB_PORT=8086

END OF CONFIG

function monitor_mtr() {
for MTR_HOST in "${MTR_HOSTS[@]}"; do
( mtr --report --json --report-cycles $CYCLES $MTR_HOST | ./save_data.py --host $INFLUXDB_HOST --port $INFLUXDB_PORT ) &
done
}

which mtr &>/dev/null
if [ $? -eq 1 ]; then
echo "mtr is not available on this system - it is required for this script to work"
exit 1
fi

while true; do
monitor_mtr
sleep $INTERVAL
done

THE save_data.py must use python3?

[carbolymer]

looks fine, and yes you should use python 3

[carbolymer]

1. which mtr version you have? you need >=0.87

2. You need to setup datasource manually in grafana

[pangqiss1986]

the grafana_dashboard_mtr.json import is not support grafana6.1.4.....
