Openmetrics module

edit

This functionality is in beta and is subject to change. The design and code is less mature than official GA features and is being provided as-is with no warranties. Beta features are not subject to the support SLA of official GA features.

This module periodically fetches metrics from endpoints following Openmetrics format.

Filtering metrics

edit

In order to filter out/in metrics one can make use of metrics_filters.include metrics_filters.exclude settings:

- module: openmetrics
  metricsets: ['collector']
  period: 10s
  hosts: ["localhost:9090"]
  metrics_path: /metrics
  metrics_filters:
    include: ["node_filesystem_*"]
    exclude: ["node_filesystem_device_*", "^node_filesystem_readonly$"]

The configuration above will include only metrics that match node_filesystem_* pattern and do not match node_filesystem_device_* and are not node_filesystem_readonly metric.

Example configuration

The Openmetrics module supports the standard configuration options that are described in Modules. Here is an example configuration:

metricbeat.modules:
- module: openmetrics
  metricsets: ['collector']
  period: 10s
  hosts: ['localhost:9090']

  # This module uses the Prometheus collector metricset, all
  # the options for this metricset are also available here.
  metrics_path: /metrics
  metrics_filters:
    include: []
    exclude: []

This module supports TLS connections when using ssl config field, as described in SSL. It also supports the options described in Standard HTTP config options.
