The prometheus_simple receiver is a wrapper around the prometheus receiver. This receiver provides a simple configuration interface to configure the prometheus receiver to scrape metrics from a single target.

Configuration

The following settings are required:

• endpoint (default = localhost:9090): The endpoint from which prometheus metrics should be scraped.

The following settings are optional:

• collection_interval (default = 10s): The internal at which metrics should be emitted by this receiver.
• metrics_path (default = /metrics): The path to the metrics endpoint.
• params (default = {}): The query parameters to pass to the metrics endpoint. If specified, params are appended to metrics_path to form the URL with which the target is scraped.
• use_service_account (default = false): Whether or not to use the Kubernetes Pod service account for authentication.
• tls_enabled (default = false): Whether or not to use TLS. Only if tls_enabled is set to true, the values under tls_config are accounted for. This setting will be deprecated. Please use tls instead.

The tls_config section supports the following options. This setting will be deprecated. Please use tls instead:

• ca_file (no default): Path to the CA cert that has signed the TLS certificate.
• cert_file (no default): Path to the client TLS certificate to use for TLS required connections.
• key_file (no default): Path to the client TLS key to use for TLS required connections.

• insecure_skip_verify (default = false): Whether or not to skip certificate verification.

• tls: see TLS Configuration Settings for the full set of available options.

Example:

    receivers:
      prometheus_simple:
        collection_interval: 10s
        use_service_account: true
        endpoint: "172.17.0.5:9153"
        tls:
          ca_file: "/path/to/ca"
          cert_file: "/path/to/cert"
          key_file: "/path/to/key"
          insecure_skip_verify: true
    exporters:
      signalfx:
        access_token: <SIGNALFX_ACCESS_TOKEN>
        url: <SIGNALFX_INGEST_URL>

    service:
      pipelines:
        metrics:
          receivers: [prometheus_simple]
          exporters: [signalfx]
