prometheus.exporter.catchpoint

EXPERIMENTAL: This is an experimental component. Experimental components are subject to frequent breaking changes, and may be removed with no equivalent replacement.

The prometheus.exporter.catchpoint component uses the catchpoint_exporter for collecting statistics from a Catchpoint account.

Usage

alloy 
prometheus.exporter.catchpoint "<LABEL>" {
    port              = PORT
    verbose_logging   = <VERBOSE_LOGGING>
    webhook_path      = <WEBHOOK_PATH>
}

Arguments

The following arguments can be used to configure the exporter’s behavior. Omitted fields take their default values.

NameTypeDescriptionDefaultRequired
portstringSets the port on which the exporter will run."9090"no
verbose_loggingboolEnables verbose logging to provide more detailed output for debugging purposes.falseno
webhook_pathstringDefines the path where the exporter will receive webhook data from Catchpoint"/catchpoint-webhook"no

Blocks

The prometheus.exporter.catchpoint component does not support any blocks, and is configured fully through arguments.

Exported fields

The following fields are exported and can be referenced by other components.

NameTypeDescription
targetslist(map(string))The targets that can be used to collect exporter metrics.

For example, the targets can either be passed to a discovery.relabel component to rewrite the targets’ label sets or to a prometheus.scrape component that collects the exposed metrics.

The exported targets use the configured in-memory traffic address specified by the run command.

Component health

prometheus.exporter.catchpoint is only reported as unhealthy if given an invalid configuration. In those cases, exported fields retain their last healthy values.

Debug information

prometheus.exporter.catchpoint does not expose any component-specific debug information.

Debug metrics

prometheus.exporter.catchpoint does not expose any component-specific debug metrics.

Example

This example uses a prometheus.scrape component to collect metrics from prometheus.exporter.catchpoint:

alloy 
prometheus.exporter.catchpoint "example" {
  port             = "9090"
  verbose_logging  = false
  webhook_path     = "/catchpoint-webhook"
}

// Configure a prometheus.scrape component to collect catchpoint metrics.
prometheus.scrape "demo" {
  targets    = prometheus.exporter.catchpoint.example.targets
  forward_to = [prometheus.remote_write.demo.receiver]
}

prometheus.remote_write "demo" {
  endpoint {
    url = <PROMETHEUS_REMOTE_WRITE_URL>

    basic_auth {
      username = <USERNAME>
      password = <PASSWORD>
    }
  }
}

Replace the following:

  • <PROMETHEUS_REMOTE_WRITE_URL>: The URL of the Prometheus remote_write-compatible server to send metrics to.
  • <USERNAME>: The username to use for authentication to the remote_write API.
  • <PASSWORD>: The password to use for authentication to the remote_write API.
