Prometheus Exporter for pg-promise

A prometheus exporter exposing metrics for pg-promise.

Available Metrics

As the exporter is utilizing the node-postgres-prometheus-exporter for the majority of the connection and pool usage metrics, please check the documentation for the list of metrics.

In addition the exporter provides the following metrics.

                    Usage

                    Add Dependency

                    Add the following dependency to your project to download the package from npm.

                    npm i @christiangalsterer/pg-promise-prometheus-exporter

                    TypeScript

                    The following example illustrates how to use the exporter to enable monitoring for the pg-promise.

                    import pgPromise, { type IInitOptions, type IMain } from 'pg-promise'
                    import { Registry, collectDefaultMetrics } from 'prom-client'
                    import { monitorPgPromise } from '@christiangalsterer/pg-promise-prometheus-exporter'
                    
                    ...
                    
                    // set up pg-promise
                    const initOptions: IInitOptions = {/* initialization options */}
                    const pgp: IMain = pgPromise(initOptions)
                    const database: any = pgp(/* the connection parameter is either a configuration object or a connection string */)
                    
                    
                    // set up the prometheus client
                    const register = new Registry();
                    collectDefaultMetrics({ register })
                    
                    // monitor pg-promise
                    monitorPgPromise(database, initOptions, register)
                    
                    ...
                    
                    // connect to PostgreSQL *after* calling monitorPgPromise

                    JavaScript

                    The following example illustrates how to use the exporter to enable monitoring for pg-promise.

                    const promClient = require( 'prom-client');
                    const pgPromiseExporter = require('@christiangalsterer/pg-promise-prometheus-exporter')
                    
                    // set up pg-promise
                    const initOptions = {/* initialization options */};
                    const pgp = require('pg-promise')(initOptions);
                    const database = pgp(/* the connection parameter is either a configuration object or a connection string */)
                    
                    // set up the prometheus client
                    const collectDefaultMetrics = promClient.collectDefaultMetrics;
                    const Registry = promClient.Registry;
                    const register = new Registry();
                    collectDefaultMetrics({ register });
                    
                    // monitor pg-promise
                    pgPromiseExporter.monitorPgPromise(database, initOptions, register)
                    
                    // connect to Postgres *after* calling monitorPgPromise

                    Configuration

                    The exporter can be configured via properties specified on the optional parameter of type PgPromiseExporterOptions.

                    PgPromiseExporterOptions

                    property Description Example Since
                    defaultLabels Default labels added to each metrics. {'foo':'bar', 'alice': 3} 1.0.0

                    Event Handling

                    If there are already event handler registered for the events provided by pg-promise, the library will preserve the defined event handlers when the initOptions are initialized.

                    Grafana Dashboard

                    An example dashboard for Grafana is available here displaying the provided metrics by the exporter.

                    Here an example for pg-promise client metrics: Grafana:pg-promise client metrics

                    Here an example for pg-promise pool metrics: Grafana:pg-promise pool metrics

                    Here an example for pg-promise command metrics: Grafana:pg-promise command metrics

                    Here an example for pg-promise task metrics: Grafana:pg-promise task metrics

                    Here an example for pg-promise transaction metrics: Grafana:pg-promise transaction metrics
