Some metrics have been renamed and their type adapted to be more usable in
Prometheus:
* haproxy_process_uptime_seconds -> haproxy_process_start_time_seconds
* haproxy_process_max_memory -> haproxy_process_max_memory_bytes
* haproxy_process_pool_allocated_total -> haproxy_process_pool_allocated_bytes
* haproxy_process_pool_used_total -> haproxy_process_pool_used_bytes
* haproxy_process_ssl_cache_lookups -> haproxy_process_ssl_cache_lookups_total
* haproxy_process_ssl_cache_misses -> haproxy_process_ssl_cache_misses_total
No backport needed. See issue #81 on github.
Following metrics have been removed:
* haproxy_frontend_connections_rate_current (ST_F_CONN_RATE)
* haproxy_frontend_http_requests_rate_current (ST_F_REQ_RATE)
* haproxy_*_current_session_rate (ST_F_RATE)
These rates can be deduced using the total value with this kind of formula:
rate(haproxy_frontend_connections_total[1m])
No backport needed. See issue #81 on github.
It has been developped as a service applet. Internally, it is called
"promex". To build HAProxy with the promex service, you should use the Makefile
variable "EXTRA_OBJS". To be used, it must be enabled in the configuration with
an "http-request" rule and the corresponding HTTP proxy must enable the HTX
support. For instance:
frontend test
mode http
...
option http-use-htx
http-request use-service prometheus-exporter if { path /metrics }
...
See contrib/prometheus-exporter/README for details.
