if i understand the prometheus data model correctly, the current output
for this plugin is unusable
prometheus only accepts a single value per measurement. prior to this change, the range loop
causes a measurement to end up w/ a random value
for instance:
net,dc=sjc1,grp_dashboard=1,grp_home=1,grp_hwy_fetcher=1,grp_web_admin=1,host=sjc1-b4-8,hw=app,interface=docker0,state=live
bytes_recv=477596i,bytes_sent=152963303i,drop_in=0i,drop_out=0i,err_in=0i,err_out=0i,packets_recv=7231i,packets_sent=11460i
1457121990003778992
this 'net' measurent would have all it's tags copied to prometheus
labels, but any of 152963303, or 0, or 7231 as a value for
'net' depending on which field is last in the map iteration
this change expands the fields into new measurements by appending
the field name to the influxdb measurement name.
ie, the above example results with 'net' dropped and new measurements
to take it's place:
net_bytes_recv
net_bytes_sent
net_drop_in
net_err_in
net_packets_recv
net_packets_sent
i hope this can be merged, i love telegraf's composability of tags and
filtering
This plugin is intended to add an extended support of Postgresql
compared to the legacy postgres plugin.
Basically, the plugin don’t have any metrics defined and it’s up to the
user to define it in the telegraph.conf (as a toml structure).
Each query can have it’s specific tags, and can be written specifically
using a where clause in order to eventually filter per database name.
To be more generic, a minimum postgresql version has been defined per
query in case you have 2 different version of Postgresql running on the
same host.
Hi @sparrc
(Sorry for the noise - new pr)
closes#853
Please find some improvements to readability including the \n for the exec/telegraf line-protocol input.
I hope you (and others) find it easier to read.
