# Template Exporter
This repository is a template repository for @adoralaura. It's used to easily implement (small) Prometheus Exporters.
If you run into issues you may inform @adoralaura, but know that you use this template on your own risk!
# Usage
## Installation
Pre-built docker images can be found at [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/lauralani/template-exporter). A sample `docker-compose.yml` can be [found here](docker-compose.yml).
Binaries can be built by cloning this repository and run `go build main.go` with [Golang](https://go.dev/) installed.
## Running
Start `template-exporter` as a daemon or from CLI:
```sh
./template-exporter
```
Visit <http://localhost:43609/metrics?target=203.0.113.8> where `203.0.113.8` is the IP
of the NTP server you want to get the score from.
## Prometheus Configuration
The URL parameter `target` can be controlled through relabelling.
Example config:
```YAML
scrape_configs:
- job_name: 'template'
static_configs:
- targets:
- 203.0.113.8 # change this
- 2003:db8::1 # change this
relabel_configs:
- source_labels: [__address__]
target_label: __param_target
- source_labels: [__param_target]
target_label: instance
- target_label: __address__
replacement: 127.0.0.1:43609 # The template exporter's real hostname:port.
```
Similarly to [blackbox_exporter](https://github.com/prometheus/blackbox_exporter),
`template-exporter` is meant to run on a few central machines and can be thought of
like a "Prometheus proxy".
### TLS and basic authentication
The Template Exporter does **not** support TLS and basic authentication yet.
This may be added in a future release.
# Once you have it running
It can be opaque to get started with all this. To make it
easier for others, please consider contributing back your configurations to
us.
