influx: Execute a given command.
$ influx -execute "${influxql_command}"
try on your machine
The command "influx -execute "${influxql_command}"" is used to execute an InfluxQL (Influx Query Language) command in the InfluxDB command line interface (CLI).
Here's a breakdown of the command:
influx
: This is the command keyword to start the InfluxDB CLI.-execute
: This option is used to specify that the following argument is an InfluxQL query to be executed.${influxql_command}
: This is a placeholder for an actual InfluxQL command. The command enclosed within the "${}" will be replaced with the value of the variableinfluxql_command
. The variable should be defined or assigned elsewhere in the script or command line.
When you run this command, InfluxDB CLI will execute the InfluxQL command specified in ${influxql_command}
and return the result. The result might include query output, data from the database, or any error or status messages related to the execution of the InfluxQL command.
