Connect to InfluxDB via a Unix Domain Socket #1628

Feature Request

Proposal:

Add support for connecting to InfluxDB over a unix domain socket

Current behavior:

We can connect to InfluxDB via UDP or HTTP(S) over TCP but not UDS. InfluxDB also supports HTTP over UDS.

See : influxdata/influxdb#7135
influxdata/telegraf#3366

Desired behavior:

Be able to talk to InfluxDB on the same host via UDS.

Use case:

  1. Improved security
  2. Reduce TCP overhead for hosts running the TICK stack on the same box and have limited resources
