influxdb:
  host: DB_HOST_IP_ADDRESS
  port: 20000
  database: DB_TO_STORE_EVENTS
  username: MY_USERNAME
  password: MY_PASSWORD

Configuration variables:

  • host (Required): IP address of your database host, eg. http://192.168.1.10.
  • port (Optional): Port to use. Defaults to 8086.
  • database (Optional): Name of the database to use. Defaults to home_assistant. The database must already exist.
  • username (Optional): The username of the database user.
  • password (Optional): The password for the database user account.
