prometheus-nagios-exporter

🆙 Prometheus exporter that scrapes a Nagios status pages for alerts.

Prometheus asks this exporter for metrics, one Nagios target at a time.

The timeout for this exporter is 15 seconds, rather than the normal 10 seconds for Prometheus Exporters

Exported Metrics

nagios_check_ok

Labels host, check_id, state, notify, acknowledged, type Gauge

Info about each Nagios host monitored, and whether they have a failing check (0 == failing check)

nagios_request_duration_seconds

How long the exporter took to scrape the Nagios hosts status?

nagios_up

Whether the last nagios scrape was successful (1: up, 0: down).

Prometheus Configuration

- job_name: nagios_exporter
  scheme: https
  static_configs:
      - targets:
            - prometheus-nagios-exporter-eu-west-1.in.ft.com
            - prometheus-nagios-exporter-us-east-1.in.ft.com
        labels:
            system: prometheus-nagios-exporter
            observe: yes

# optional '__meta_nagios_param_host/__meta_nagios_param_hostgroup/__meta_nagios_param_servicegroup' labels passed to the nagios status page
# useful when a host/hostgroup/servicegroup maps to a different label set on the same instance
# multiple parameters are not supported and may produce unexpected results
#
# A further optional label is '__meta_nagios_param_protocol'. This labels allows to control the protocol which is used
# to scrape the nagios instance. Valid values are `http` (default) and `https`.

Local Development

Use the Makefile to locally test your changes. The 'make build' command will create a new local docker image, then the 'make run' command will execute these changes locally.

Go to http://localhost:8080/ (or the port specified on the make run command) on your browser to see the index page for the exporter.
