The `monitor` package provides tools for monitoring and alerting with InfluxDB. Import the `influxdata/influxdb/monitor` package:

```js
import "influxdata/influxdb/monitor"
```

## Constants

```js
monitor.bucket = "_monitoring"
monitor.levelCrit = "crit"
monitor.levelInfo = "info"
monitor.levelOK = "ok"
monitor.levelUnknown = "unknown"
monitor.levelWarn = "warn"
```

-   **monitor.bucket** is the default bucket to store InfluxDB monitoring data in.
-   **monitor.levelCrit** is the string representation of the “crit” level.
-   **monitor.levelInfo** is the string representation of the “info” level.
-   **monitor.levelOK** is the string representation of the “ok” level.
-   **monitor.levelUnknown** is the string representation of the an unknown level.
-   **monitor.levelWarn** is the string representation of the “warn” level.

## Options

```js
option monitor.log = (tables=<-) => tables |> experimental.to(bucket: bucket)

option monitor.write = (tables=<-) => tables |> experimental.to(bucket: bucket)
```

### log
