ctrlX Data Layer and PostgreSQL Integration

[[inputs.ctrlx_datalayer]]
   ## Hostname or IP address of the ctrlX CORE Data Layer server
   ##  example: server = "localhost"        # Telegraf is running directly on the device
   ##           server = "192.168.1.1"      # Connect to ctrlX CORE remote via IP
   ##           server = "host.example.com" # Connect to ctrlX CORE remote via hostname
   ##           server = "10.0.2.2:8443"    # Connect to ctrlX CORE Virtual from development environment
   server = "localhost"

   ## Authentication credentials
   username = "boschrexroth"
   password = "boschrexroth"

   ## Use TLS but skip chain & host verification
   # insecure_skip_verify = false

   ## Timeout for HTTP requests. (default: "10s")
   # timeout = "10s"


   ## Create a ctrlX Data Layer subscription.
   ## It is possible to define multiple subscriptions per host. Each subscription can have its own
   ## sampling properties and a list of nodes to subscribe to.
   ## All subscriptions share the same credentials.
   [[inputs.ctrlx_datalayer.subscription]]
      ## The name of the measurement. (default: "ctrlx")
      measurement = "memory"

      ## Configure the ctrlX Data Layer nodes which should be subscribed.
      ## address - node address in ctrlX Data Layer (mandatory)
      ## name    - field name to use in the output (optional, default: base name of address)
      ## tags    - extra node tags to be added to the output metric (optional)
      ## Note: 
      ## Use either the inline notation or the bracketed notation, not both.
      ## The tags property is only supported in bracketed notation due to toml parser restrictions
      ## Examples:
      ## Inline notation 
      nodes=[
         {name="available", address="framework/metrics/system/memavailable-mb"},
         {name="used", address="framework/metrics/system/memused-mb"},
      ]
      ## Bracketed notation
      # [[inputs.ctrlx_datalayer.subscription.nodes]]
      #    name   ="available"
      #    address="framework/metrics/system/memavailable-mb"
      #    ## Define extra tags related to node to be added to the output metric (optional)
      #    [inputs.ctrlx_datalayer.subscription.nodes.tags]
      #       node_tag1="node_tag1"
      #       node_tag2="node_tag2"
      # [[inputs.ctrlx_datalayer.subscription.nodes]]
      #    name   ="used"
      #    address="framework/metrics/system/memused-mb"

      ## The switch "output_json_string" enables output of the measurement as json. 
      ## That way it can be used in in a subsequent processor plugin, e.g. "Starlark Processor Plugin".
      # output_json_string = false

      ## Define extra tags related to subscription to be added to the output metric (optional)
      # [inputs.ctrlx_datalayer.subscription.tags]
      #    subscription_tag1 = "subscription_tag1"
      #    subscription_tag2 = "subscription_tag2"

      ## The interval in which messages shall be sent by the ctrlX Data Layer to this plugin. (default: 1s)
      ## Higher values reduce load on network by queuing samples on server side and sending as a single TCP packet.
      # publish_interval = "1s"

      ## The interval a "keepalive" message is sent if no change of data occurs. (default: 60s)
      ## Only used internally to detect broken network connections.
      # keep_alive_interval = "60s"

      ## The interval an "error" message is sent if an error was received from a node. (default: 10s)
      ## Higher values reduce load on output target and network in case of errors by limiting frequency of error messages.
      # error_interval = "10s"

      ## The interval that defines the fastest rate at which the node values should be sampled and values captured. (default: 1s)
      ## The sampling frequency should be adjusted to the dynamics of the signal to be sampled.
      ## Higher sampling frequencies increases load on ctrlX Data Layer.
      ## The sampling frequency can be higher, than the publish interval. Captured samples are put in a queue and sent in publish interval.
      ## Note: The minimum sampling interval can be overruled by a global setting in the ctrlX Data Layer configuration ('datalayer/subscriptions/settings').
      # sampling_interval = "1s"

      ## The requested size of the node value queue. (default: 10)
      ## Relevant if more values are captured than can be sent.
      # queue_size = 10

      ## The behaviour of the queue if it is full. (default: "DiscardOldest")
      ## Possible values: 
      ## - "DiscardOldest"
      ##   The oldest value gets deleted from the queue when it is full.
      ## - "DiscardNewest"
      ##   The newest value gets deleted from the queue when it is full.
      # queue_behaviour = "DiscardOldest"

      ## The filter when a new value will be sampled. (default: 0.0)
      ## Calculation rule: If (abs(lastCapturedValue - newValue) > dead_band_value) capture(newValue).
      # dead_band_value = 0.0

      ## The conditions on which a sample should be captured and thus will be sent as a message. (default: "StatusValue")
      ## Possible values:
      ## - "Status"
      ##   Capture the value only, when the state of the node changes from or to error state. Value changes are ignored.
      ## - "StatusValue" 
      ##   Capture when the value changes or the node changes from or to error state.
      ##   See also 'dead_band_value' for what is considered as a value change.
      ## - "StatusValueTimestamp": 
      ##   Capture even if the value is the same, but the timestamp of the value is newer.
      ##   Note: This might lead to high load on the network because every sample will be sent as a message
      ##   even if the value of the node did not change.
      # value_change = "StatusValue"

# Publishes metrics to a postgresql database
[[outputs.postgresql]]
  ## Specify connection address via the standard libpq connection string:
  ##   host=... user=... password=... sslmode=... dbname=...
  ## Or a URL:
  ##   postgres://[user[:password]]@localhost[/dbname]?sslmode=[disable|verify-ca|verify-full]
  ## See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/libpq-connect.html#LIBPQ-CONNSTRING
  ##
  ## All connection parameters are optional. Environment vars are also supported.
  ## e.g. PGPASSWORD, PGHOST, PGUSER, PGDATABASE
  ## All supported vars can be found here:
  ##  https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/libpq-envars.html
  ##
  ## Non-standard parameters:
  ##   pool_max_conns (default: 1) - Maximum size of connection pool for parallel (per-batch per-table) inserts.
  ##   pool_min_conns (default: 0) - Minimum size of connection pool.
  ##   pool_max_conn_lifetime (default: 0s) - Maximum age of a connection before closing.
  ##   pool_max_conn_idle_time (default: 0s) - Maximum idle time of a connection before closing.
  ##   pool_health_check_period (default: 0s) - Duration between health checks on idle connections.
  # connection = ""

  ## Postgres schema to use.
  # schema = "public"

  ## Store tags as foreign keys in the metrics table. Default is false.
  # tags_as_foreign_keys = false

  ## Suffix to append to table name (measurement name) for the foreign tag table.
  # tag_table_suffix = "_tag"

  ## Deny inserting metrics if the foreign tag can't be inserted.
  # foreign_tag_constraint = false

  ## Store all tags as a JSONB object in a single 'tags' column.
  # tags_as_jsonb = false

  ## Store all fields as a JSONB object in a single 'fields' column.
  # fields_as_jsonb = false

  ## Name of the timestamp column
  ## NOTE: Some tools (e.g. Grafana) require the default name so be careful!
  # timestamp_column_name = "time"

  ## Type of the timestamp column
  ## Currently, "timestamp without time zone" and "timestamp with time zone"
  ## are supported
  # timestamp_column_type = "timestamp without time zone"

  ## Templated statements to execute when creating a new table.
  # create_templates = [
  #   '''CREATE TABLE {{ .table }} ({{ .columns }})''',
  # ]

  ## Templated statements to execute when adding columns to a table.
  ## Set to an empty list to disable. Points containing tags for which there is no column will be skipped. Points
  ## containing fields for which there is no column will have the field omitted.
  # add_column_templates = [
  #   '''ALTER TABLE {{ .table }} ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS {{ .columns|join ", ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS " }}''',
  # ]

  ## Templated statements to execute when creating a new tag table.
  # tag_table_create_templates = [
  #   '''CREATE TABLE {{ .table }} ({{ .columns }}, PRIMARY KEY (tag_id))''',
  # ]

  ## Templated statements to execute when adding columns to a tag table.
  ## Set to an empty list to disable. Points containing tags for which there is no column will be skipped.
  # tag_table_add_column_templates = [
  #   '''ALTER TABLE {{ .table }} ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS {{ .columns|join ", ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS " }}''',
  # ]

  ## The postgres data type to use for storing unsigned 64-bit integer values (Postgres does not have a native
  ## unsigned 64-bit integer type).
  ## The value can be one of:
  ##   numeric - Uses the PostgreSQL "numeric" data type.
  ##   uint8 - Requires pguint extension (https://github.com/petere/pguint)
  # uint64_type = "numeric"

  ## When using pool_max_conns>1, and a temporary error occurs, the query is retried with an incremental backoff. This
  ## controls the maximum backoff duration.
  # retry_max_backoff = "15s"

  ## Approximate number of tag IDs to store in in-memory cache (when using tags_as_foreign_keys).
  ## This is an optimization to skip inserting known tag IDs.
  ## Each entry consumes approximately 34 bytes of memory.
  # tag_cache_size = 100000

  ## Enable & set the log level for the Postgres driver.
  # log_level = "warn" # trace, debug, info, warn, error, none
