To create a InfluxDB via Python3:

#!/usr/bin/env python3
import urllib.request as requests

url = "http://localhost:8086/query"

params = {
"q=CREATE DATABASE mydb"
}

r = requests.Request(url, data=params)

import requests

url_string = 'http://localhost:8086/write?db=mydb'
data_string = 'cpu_load_short,host=server01,region=us-west value=0.64 1434055562000000000'

r = requests.post(url_string, data=data_string)
