Unable to write points through Go client when authentication enabled

[dkulchenko]

This is with latest HEAD, for both influxd and the Go client, though the problem occurs with any of the 0.9 RCs as well.

When requiring authentication on the server and providing it through the Go client, writing points fails with the error unable to parse Basic Auth credentials.

Here's a test script which will fail on any influxd setup with auth enabled:

package main

import (
    "log"
    "net/url"
    "time"

    "github.com/influxdb/influxdb/client"
)

func main() {
    u, err := url.Parse("http://localhost:8086/")
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatalf("unable to parse influx URL: %s", err)
    }

    conf := client.Config{
        URL:      *u,
        Username: "influx",
        Password: "influx",
    }

    influx, err := client.NewClient(conf)
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatalf("unable to create influxd client: %s", err)
    }

    _, err = influx.Write(client.BatchPoints{
        Points:   []client.Point{client.Point{Name: "metric", Fields: map[string]interface{}{"value": 2}, Timestamp: time.Now()}},
        Database: "influx",
    })

    if err != nil {
        log.Fatalf("error: %s", err)
    } else {
        log.Println("succeeded")
    }
}
