#InfluxDB : readable timestamps in the CLI
Time-series database InfluxDB provides a nice CLI, similar to what is available for many other databases.
One key feature of the interaction with time series databases is to work a lot with time, so it comes a little bit surprising that InfluxDB displays time as nanoseconds timestamp, like the following:
892482496000000000
To have human-readable timestamps invoke the CLI as the following:
$influx -precision rfc3339
or type the following command at the CLI propmpt:
> precision rfc3339
The timestamp will then look like:
1998-04-13T15:48:16Z
better right? š
