    {
      url: 'http://influx.url',
      db: 'database name'
    },
    [
      {
        measurement: 'web',
        fields: {
          load: 12.34
        }
      },
      {
        measurement: 'web',
        fields: {
          load: 5.4
        },
        tags: {
          host: 'linux'
        },
        timestamp: Date.now()
      }
    ]
  );

// or

const db = influx.db({ url: 'http://influx.url', db: 'database name'});
await db.write({
  measurement: 'web',
  fields: {
    load: 12.34
  }
});

// query

const db = influx.db({ url: 'http://influx.url', db: 'database name', username: 'user', password: 'pass' });
await db.query('SELECT * FROM measurement');
await db.flux('from(bucket:"telegraf")');
```

## CLI
