tsd2InfluxDb.exe is a command line tool, located in the Silk Performer installation folder, that lets you export .tsd files and raw data files to either a database instance of InfluxDB directly or to a file, which can easily be imported into InfluxDB in a two-step approach.
The tool accepts the following parameters:
Parameter name | Parameter value |
---|---|
loadtestDir | Full path to a load test directory. |
exportTsds | No value. Add this parameter to export .tsd files from the folder specified with the loadtestDir parameter. |
exportRaw | No value. Add this parameter to export raw data files from the folder specified with the loadtestDir parameter. |
inputFile | Full paths to selected input files, separated by a semicolon (;). |
baseUrl | URL of the InfluxDB instance. For example: https://myInfluxDB:8443/ |
Db | Name of the database in InfluxDB. |
Auth | Authentication data in the format username:password |
outputFile | Full path to a text file receiving the measurements in Influx line protocol. |
loadtestName | Name of the load test. Used for the Loadtest tag. |
customTags | Custom tags in the format key1=value1; key2=value2; |
Config | Full path to a configuration file. Only applicable in command line parameters. |
selectedMeasures | Only available through the config file. Allows specifying exactly which measures are to be exported. The Copy to Clipboard button of the Tsd2InfluxDB tool helps you to generate the selectedMeasures node in your config file. |
Export .tsd and raw data files from the specified load test to an output file and tag all measure points with tag Loadtest=MyDemoTest:
tsd2InfluxDb.exe
-loadtestDir "D:/Users/myUser/Documents/Silk Performer 20.5/Projects/WebProject_2/MyDemoTest"
-exportTsds
-exportRaw
-loadtestName MyDemoTest
-outputFile "D:/myOutputFile.txt"
Export using a given config file:
tsd2InfluxDb.exe -config "D:/myInfluxConfigFile"
Example content of config file:
Export three selected measures from .tsd files and raw data files from a given load test directory to an InfluxDB database. Tag each measure point with a tag Loadtest=MyDemoTest.
