[influxdb] How to add a plugin to telegraf?

[Philipe Dupont]

Good morning, I would like to know how to properly create a plugin for
telegraf.

I have all ready write the plugin following the inputs structure in .go. I
just count +1 every 10sec and want to store the counter into influx. Just
to try and understand how to add plugin to be able to add other more
complicated.
I have also write a file.conf but I don't know if the file is made
correctly and if I need it. I follow the example here:
https://influxdata.com/get-started/sending-data-to-influxdb-with-telegraf/

Where do it save my test plugin.go because I don't want to put on
github/telegraf/plugin/inputs/all./all.go ? And after I just need to add to
telegraf.conf in the input section [[input.myplugin]] ?

If someone have all ready made this or have an example to link the file.go
with telegraf it could be really helpful.

Thank you.
