Exposing tinyflux data to grafana.

Hi, exposing tinuflux data to Grafana - what would be the best way to accomplish that?
Do conversion and such in a flask/fastapi implementation?
Is it a valid and intended use case or would some other database be more suitable?

Well the primary "database" of the API is a CSV. Grafana should be able to easily visualize this. Have you tried it yet?

Hi and thanks!

I Haven't tried it but as the data is coming in rather quickly and I want grafana to be able to show it with continuous updates I thought fetching the data plain text from file would not be optimal.

Having read up a little more it seems like publishing the data on mqtt and using Grafana Live is the way to go.

Seems like a good approach!
