Manually create telegraf.conf ConfigMap when using helm-charts

[jminardi]

I am experiencing an issue with the auto generation of the telegraf.conf ConfigMap when converting from the json file in the values.yaml. See Issue #682

Is it possibly to configure the helm charts not to create this ConfigMap, and instead let me manually create it and populate it with my own telegraf.conf toml file? That would let me sidestep the issue of json -> toml errors.

@jminardi I am struggling with the same issue. Did you find a work around?

@ahwaleed I fixed the blocking issue in PR #689 but no one reviewed it. I don't think the influx helm charts are really maintained.

Since telegraf is so simple, and they provide an official docker container I ended up just rolling my own helm charts.
