Zack Zatkin-Gold dd537b3382 Fix telegraf example arguments (#2788)
Many of the examples provided within documentation are using a single
dash for the command line arguments, but the telegraf executable
explicitly has two dashes.

There are also some inconsistencies with the ordering of the command
line argument examples.  I've ordered them so that the examples will
show: config, config-directory, input-filter, test

influxdb plugin

The InfluxDB plugin will collect metrics on the given InfluxDB servers.

This plugin can also gather metrics from endpoints that expose InfluxDB-formatted endpoints. See below for more information.

Configuration:

# Read InfluxDB-formatted JSON metrics from one or more HTTP endpoints
[[inputs.influxdb]]
  ## Works with InfluxDB debug endpoints out of the box,
  ## but other services can use this format too.
  ## See the influxdb plugin's README for more details.

  ## Multiple URLs from which to read InfluxDB-formatted JSON
  ## Default is "http://localhost:8086/debug/vars".
  urls = [
    "http://localhost:8086/debug/vars"
  ]

  ## Optional SSL Config
  # ssl_ca = "/etc/telegraf/ca.pem"
  # ssl_cert = "/etc/telegraf/cert.pem"
  # ssl_key = "/etc/telegraf/key.pem"
  ## Use SSL but skip chain & host verification
  # insecure_skip_verify = false

  ## http request & header timeout
  timeout = "5s"

InfluxDB-formatted endpoints

The influxdb plugin can collect InfluxDB-formatted data from JSON endpoints. Whether associated with an Influx database or not.

With a configuration of:

[[inputs.influxdb]]
  urls = [
    "http://127.0.0.1:8086/debug/vars",
    "http://192.168.2.1:8086/debug/vars"
  ]
