最近这段时间在使用influxdb，抽空翻译了一下配置文件。有不足的地方请指正。
因为简书默认markdown编辑器，所以注释符号会被视为加粗
https://github.com/wangr927/mytranslation/blob/master/influxdb.conf
可以直接到github上下载带有翻译的配置文件
Welcome to the InfluxDB configuration file.
The values in this file override the default values used by the system if
a config option is not specified. The commented out lines are the configuration
field and the default value used. Uncommenting a line and changing the value
will change the value used at runtime when the process is restarted.
将某行的注释符号去除并修改其值，那么在下次influxdb进程重启后，你修改的数值就会在程序的运行缓存中生效（runtime）
如果你不去除注释符号，则可以查看这个参数的默认数值。
Once every 24 hours InfluxDB will report usage data to usage.influxdata.com
The data includes a random ID, os, arch, version, the number of series and other
usage data. No data from user databases is ever transmitted.
Change this option to true to disable reporting.
reporting-disabled = false
必须要告知你，当influxdb启动后，每24小时influxdb会向usage.influxdata.com汇报一些使用数据
这些上报的数据包括随机ID，运行系统，influxdb版本以及数据库中series的数据
但是用户数据库中的数据是不会被发送的，当然你可以取消下面这个reporting-disabled = false 的注释来禁用自动数据上报
Bind address to use for the RPC service for backup and restore.
bind-address = "127.0.0.1:8088"
设置用户备份与修复（数据）的RPC服务地址
[meta]
Controls the parameters for the Raft consensus group that stores metadata
about the InfluxDB cluster.
元数据 meta
存储有关InfluxDB集群元数据的 Raft consensus group 的控制参数将在下面被配置。
[meta]
Where the metadata/raft database is stored
dir = "/var/lib/influxdb/meta"
元数据/raft 数据库被存储的路径 即meta目录
Automatically create a default retention policy when creating a database.
retention-autocreate = true
当创建一个新的数据库时自动为其创建一个默认的rentention policy（保留策略）
If log messages are printed for the meta service
logging-enabled = true
是否为meta服务打印日志
[data]
Controls where the actual shard data for InfluxDB lives and how it is
flushed from the WAL. "dir" may need to be changed to a suitable place
for your system, but the WAL settings are an advanced configuration. The
defaults should work for most systems.
数据 data
这里的参数将会修改InfluxDB的分片数据的具体存放路径，以及这部分数据从WAL（Write Ahead Log）
刷新的（策略）。你需要根据系统的情况来为"dir"修改一个合适的路径。（换言之，你应该大致估计在你保存策略下
，你的数据需要多少磁盘空间） 当然WAL相关的配置是一种高级设置，而默认的配置应能满足大多数的
使用场景
[data]
The directory where the TSM storage engine stores TSM files.
dir = "/var/lib/influxdb/data"
TSM存储引擎存储TSM文件的目录
The directory where the TSM storage engine stores WAL files.
wal-dir = "/var/lib/influxdb/wal"
TSM存储引擎存储WAL文件的目录
The amount of time that a write will wait before fsyncing. A duration
greater than 0 can be used to batch up multiple fsync calls. This is useful for slower
disks or when WAL write contention is seen. A value of 0s fsyncs every write to the WAL.
Values in the range of 0-100ms are recommended for non-SSD disks.
wal-fsync-delay = "0s"
这个时间参数是在fsyncing之前一个写入操作将等待的时间。（fsync解释为：帧同步脉冲 操作 被同步 把文件在内存中的部分写回磁盘）
大于0的参数可以用来整理多重fsync操作。当系统磁盘读写速度较慢或出现WAL写入延缓时，可以考虑配置该参数
对于非固态硬盘，这个参数推荐的配置范围是0~100毫秒
The type of shard index to use for new shards. The default is an in-memory index that is
recreated at startup. A value of "tsi1" will use a disk based index that supports higher
cardinality datasets.
index-version = "inmem"
对于influxdb新产生的分片索引的类型将在这里被设置。初始默认的索引类型是一种 in-memory 索引，如果你修改成
tsi1 将会对于高基数数据支持的更好。（high-cardinality 是描述tag rentention-policy measurement组合成series规模的度量值）
Trace logging provides more verbose output around the tsm engine. Turning
this on can provide more useful output for debugging tsm engine issues.
trace-logging-enabled = false
打印追踪日志，也就是打印debug日志。如果打开的话会创建大量冗长的、有关tsm存储引擎工作细节的日志。
Whether queries should be logged before execution. Very useful for troubleshooting, but will
log any sensitive data contained within a query.
query-log-enabled = true
这个配置决定在执行query查询动作前是否记录为日志。对于解决问题很有帮助
但是会把所有含有query的敏感数据都记录下来
Settings for the TSM engine
有关TSM存储引擎的设置
CacheMaxMemorySize is the maximum size a shard's cache can
reach before it starts rejecting writes.
Valid size suffixes are k, m, or g (case insensitive, 1024 = 1k).
Vaues without a size suffix are in bytes.
cache-max-memory-size = "1g"
cache-max-memory-size 是一个分片在拒接写入之前的最大容量（换言之就是一个分片的最大容量）
这里的体积单位可以是 k m 或者g 并且不区分大小写，如果不写单位就表示byte
CacheSnapshotMemorySize is the size at which the engine will
snapshot the cache and write it to a TSM file, freeing up memory
Valid size suffixes are k, m, or g (case insensitive, 1024 = 1k).
Values without a size suffix are in bytes.
cache-snapshot-memory-size = "25m"
cache-snapshot-memory-size 是引擎向TSM文件写入时，快照缓存数据的大小
单位规则和上面的一样
CacheSnapshotWriteColdDuration is the length of time at
which the engine will snapshot the cache and write it to
a new TSM file if the shard hasn't received writes or deletes
cache-snapshot-write-cold-duration = "10m"
这个参数为：如果分片（shard）没有接收到写入或删除（请求），引擎向TSM文件写入时候产生的快照缓存文件的时间
CompactFullWriteColdDuration is the duration at which the engine
will compact all TSM files in a shard if it hasn't received a
write or delete
compact-full-write-cold-duration = "4h"
这个参数为：若分片没有收到写入或者删除（请求），则在这个参数表示的时间间隔后压缩这个分片中的所有TSM文件
The maximum number of concurrent full and level compactions that can run at one time. A
value of 0 results in 50% of runtime.GOMAXPROCS(0) used at runtime. Any number greater
than 0 limits compactions to that value. This setting does not apply
to cache snapshotting.
max-concurrent-compactions = 0
同一时刻，全并发与level compaction的最大数值。（与influxdb并发性能有关）如果将这个参数设为0表示，在influxdb运时
runtime.GOMAXPROCS(0)为50%（这个参数是GO语言设置go进程对cpu核心的使用的）任何大于0的数值则等同相同的compaction数值
这个设置不影响缓存快照功能
The maximum series allowed per database before writes are dropped. This limit can prevent
high cardinality issues at the database level. This limit can be disabled by setting it to
0.
max-series-per-database = 1000000
每个数据库的最大series数值，设置这个数值可以避免高基数问题（就是内存要维护过多series导致OOM）
如果你将其设置为0，则表示禁用该限制
The maximum number of tag values per tag that are allowed before writes are dropped. This limit
can prevent high cardinality tag values from being written to a measurement. This limit can be
disabled by setting it to 0.
max-values-per-tag = 100000
对于同一个measurement允许的最大 不同tag数值，功能和上面的一样，防止高基数问题。同样设置为0可以禁用该设置
所以在向influxdb导入数据应该大致考虑下数据库允许的series数与tag数是否满足需求

by setting it to 0.
max-concurrent-queries = 0
数据库允许的最大查询并发数，如果达到设置上限后，还有人执行查询操作，那么influxdb将为其返回一个错误。
设置为0则禁用该配置。
The maximum time a query will is allowed to execute before being killed by the system. This limit
can help prevent run away queries. Setting the value to 0 disables the limit.
query-timeout = "0s"
一个查询请求在被系统杀死前，被运行执行的最大时间。这个参数可以避免一些 失控的查询行为 对程序可能造成的损害。
比如说过大的查询导致内存不够用而使influxdb崩溃。设置为0则为禁用该配置
The time threshold when a query will be logged as a slow query. This limit can be set to help
discover slow or resource intensive queries. Setting the value to 0 disables the slow query logging.

will buffer points in memory if you have many coming in.
下面的配置是有关于batching的设置。你最好打开这些配置，否则可能会导致丢失metrcis或遇到（influxdb）
性能过低的情况。当有大量数据点要被写入时，Batching会在内存中缓存这些数据点
Flush if this many points get buffered
batch-size = 5000
当这么多数据点被缓存后进行清理或刷新操作（flush）

similar to the line protocol format. There can be only one default template.

"split" is the default behavior for backward compatability with previous versions of influxdb.
多值插件(multi-value plugin)可以用两种方式来运行
"split"会将多值插件解析并保存到单独的measurement中
"join" 则会把它们像一个单值一样解析并保存
