testing.assertEmpty() function

testing.assertEmpty() tests if an input stream is empty. If not empty, the function returns an error.

assertEmpty can be used to perform in-line tests in a query.

Function type signature
(<-tables: stream[A]) => stream[A]

For more information, see Function type signatures.

Parameters

tables

Input data. Default is piped-forward data (<-).

Examples

Check if there is a difference between streams

This example uses testing.diff() to output the difference between two streams of tables. testing.assertEmpty() checks to see if the difference is empty.

import "sampledata"
import "testing"

want = sampledata.int()
got = sampledata.float() |> toInt()

got
    |> testing.diff(want: want)
    |> testing.assertEmpty()

The future of Flux

Flux is going into maintenance mode. You can continue using it as you currently are without any changes to your code.

Flux is going into maintenance mode and will not be supported in InfluxDB 3.0. This was a decision based on the broad demand for SQL and the continued growth and adoption of InfluxQL. We are continuing to support Flux for users in 1.x and 2.x so you can continue using it with no changes to your code. If you are interested in transitioning to InfluxDB 3.0 and want to future-proof your code, we suggest using InfluxQL.
