Deploy prometheus systemd exporter using ansible.
- Ansible >= 2.7 (It might work on previous versions, but we cannot guarantee it)
- gnu-tar on Mac deployer host (
brew install gnu-tar)
All variables which can be overridden are stored in defaults/main.yml file as well as in table below.
| Name | Default Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
systemd_exporter_version |
0.4.0 | SystemD exporter package version. Also accepts latest as parameter. |
systemd_exporter_binary_local_dir |
"" | Allows to use local packages instead of ones distributed on github. As parameter it takes a directory where systemd_exporter binary is stored on host on which ansible is ran. This overrides systemd_exporter_version parameter |
systemd_exporter_web_listen_address |
"0.0.0.0:9558" | Address on which systemd exporter will listen |
systemd_exporter_enable_restart_count |
false | Enables service restart count metrics. This feature only works with systemd 235 and above |
systemd_exporter_enable_ip_accounting |
false | Enables service ip accounting metrics. This feature only works with systemd 235 and above |
systemd_exporter_enable_file_descriptor_size |
false | Enables file descriptor size metrics. This feature will cause exporter to run as root as it needs access to /proc/X/fd |
systemd_exporter_unit_allowlist |
"" | Include some systemd units. Expects a regex. More in https://github.com/povilasv/systemd_exporter#configuration |
systemd_exporter_unit_denylist |
"" | Exclude some systemd units. Expects a regex. More in https://github.com/povilasv/systemd_exporter#configuration |
Use it in a playbook as follows:
- hosts: all
roles:
- cloudalchemy.systemd_exporterThe preferred way of locally testing the role is to use Docker and molecule (v3.x). You will have to install Docker on your system. See "Get started" for a Docker package suitable to for your system. Running your tests is as simple as executing molecule test.
Combining molecule and circle CI allows us to test how new PRs will behave when used with multiple ansible versions and multiple operating systems. This also allows use to create test scenarios for different role configurations. As a result we have a quite large test matrix which can take more time than local testing, so please be patient.
