[![CircleCI](https://circleci.com/gh/prometheus-community/json_exporter.svg?style=svg)](https://circleci.com/gh/prometheus-community/json_exporter)
A [prometheus](https://prometheus.io/) exporter which scrapes remote JSON by JSONPath.
For checking the JSONPath configuration supported by this exporter please head over [here](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/kubectl/jsonpath/).
Checkout the [examples](/examples) directory for sample exporter configuration, prometheus configuration and expected data format.
#### :warning: The configuration syntax has changed in version `0.3.x`. If you are migrating from `0.2.x`, then please use the above mentioned JSONPath guide for correct configuration syntax.
- [Supported JSONPath Syntax](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/kubectl/jsonpath/)
- [Examples configurations](/examples)
## Example Usage
```console
$ cat examples/data.json
{
"counter": 1234,
"values": [
{
"id": "id-A",
"count": 1,
"some_boolean": true,
"state": "ACTIVE"
},
{
"id": "id-B",
"count": 2,
"some_boolean": true,
"state": "INACTIVE"
},
{
"id": "id-C",
"count": 3,
"some_boolean": false,
"state": "ACTIVE"
}
],
"location": "mars"
}
$ cat examples/config.yml

$ ./json_exporter --config.file examples/config.yml &

# To test through prometheus:
## TEST with a different module for different json file
$ curl "http://localhost:7979/probe?module=animals&target=http://localhost:8000/examples/animal-data.json"
# HELP animal_population Example of top-level lists in a separate module
# TYPE animal_population untyped
animal_population{name="deer",predator="false"} 456
animal_population{name="lion",predator="true"} 123
animal_population{name="pigeon",predator="false"} 789
## TEST through prometheus:
$ docker run --rm -it -p 9090:9090 -v $PWD/examples/prometheus.yml:/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml prom/prometheus
```
Then head over to http://localhost:9090/graph?g0.range_input=1h&g0.expr=example_value_active&g0.tab=1 or http://localhost:9090/targets to check the scraped metrics or the targets.
## Using custom timestamps
This exporter allows you to use a field of the metric as the (unix/epoch) timestamp for the data as an int64. However, this may lead to unexpected behaviour, as the prometheus implements a [Staleness](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/querying/basics/#staleness) mechanism. Including timestamps in metrics disabled this staleness handling and can make data visible for longer than expected.

## Exposing metrics through HTTPS
TLS configuration supported by this exporter can be found at [exporter-toolkit/web](https://github.com/prometheus/exporter-toolkit/blob/v0.5.1/docs/web-configuration.md)
## Build
```sh
make build
```

## Sending body content for HTTP `POST`
If `body` paramater is set in config, it will be sent by the exporter as the body content in the scrape request. The HTTP method will also be set as 'POST' in this case.
If `modules.<module_name>.body` paramater is set in config, it will be sent by the exporter as the body content in the scrape request. The HTTP method will also be set as 'POST' in this case.
