discovery.dockerswarm

discovery.dockerswarm allows you to retrieve scrape targets from Docker Swarm.

Usage

discovery.dockerswarm "LABEL" {
  host = "DOCKER_DAEMON_HOST"
  role = "SWARM_ROLE"
}

Arguments

The following arguments are supported:

Name	Type	Description	Default	Required
`host`	`string`	Address of the Docker daemon.		yes
`role`	`string`	Role of the targets to retrieve. Must be `services`, `tasks`, or `nodes`.		yes
`port`	`number`	The port to scrape metrics from, when `role` is nodes, and for discovered tasks and services that don’t have published ports.	`80`	no
`refresh_interval`	`duration`	Interval at which to refresh the list of targets.	`"60s"`	no
`bearer_token_file`	`string`	File containing a bearer token to authenticate with.		no
`bearer_token`	`secret`	Bearer token to authenticate with.		no
`enable_http2`	`bool`	Whether HTTP2 is supported for requests.	`true`	no
`follow_redirects`	`bool`	Whether redirects returned by the server should be followed.	`true`	no
`proxy_url`	`string`	HTTP proxy to send requests through.		no
`no_proxy`	`string`	Comma-separated list of IP addresses, CIDR notations, and domain names to exclude from proxying.		no
`proxy_from_environment`	`bool`	Use the proxy URL indicated by environment variables.	`false`	no
`proxy_connect_header`	`map(list(secret))`	Specifies headers to send to proxies during CONNECT requests.		no

At most, one of the following can be provided:

bearer_token argument.
bearer_token_file argument.
basic_auth block.
authorization block.
oauth2 block.

no_proxy can contain IPs, CIDR notations, and domain names. IP and domain names can contain port numbers. proxy_url must be configured if no_proxy is configured.

proxy_from_environment uses the environment variables HTTP_PROXY, HTTPS_PROXY, and NO_PROXY (or the lowercase versions thereof). Requests use the proxy from the environment variable matching their scheme, unless excluded by NO_PROXY. proxy_url and no_proxy must not be configured if proxy_from_environment is configured.

proxy_connect_header should only be configured if proxy_url or proxy_from_environment are configured.

Blocks

The following blocks are supported inside the definition of discovery.dockerswarm:

Hierarchy	Block	Description	Required
filter	filter	Optional filter to limit the discovery process to a subset of available resources.	no
basic_auth	basic_auth	Configure basic_auth for authenticating to the endpoint.	no
authorization	authorization	Configure generic authorization to the endpoint.	no
oauth2	oauth2	Configure OAuth2 for authenticating to the endpoint.	no
oauth2 > tls_config	tls_config	Configure TLS settings for connecting to the endpoint.	no
tls_config	tls_config	Configure TLS settings for connecting to the endpoint.	no

The > symbol indicates deeper levels of nesting. For example, oauth2 > tls_config refers to a tls_config block defined inside an oauth2 block.

Filters can be used to limit the discovery process to a subset of available resources. It is possible to define multiple filter blocks within the discovery.dockerswarm block. The list of available filters depends on the role:

The following arguments can be used to configure a filter.

password and password_file are mutually exclusive, and only one can be provided inside a basic_auth block.

authorization block

Name	Type	Description	Required
`credentials_file`	`string`	File containing the secret value.	no
`credentials`	`secret`	Secret value.	no
`type`	`string`	Authorization type, for example, “Bearer”.	no

credential and credentials_file are mutually exclusive, and only one can be provided inside an authorization block.

oauth2 block

`token_url`	`string`	URL to fetch the token from.		no

client_secret and client_secret_file are mutually exclusive, and only one can be provided inside an oauth2 block.

The oauth2 block may also contain a separate tls_config sub-block.

no_proxy can contain IPs, CIDR notations, and domain names. IP and domain names can contain port numbers. proxy_url must be configured if no_proxy is configured.

proxy_connect_header should only be configured if proxy_url or proxy_from_environment are configured.

tls_config block

Roles

The role attribute decides the role of the targets to retrieve.

services

The services role discovers all Swarm services and exposes their ports as targets. For each published port of a service, a single target is generated. If a service has no published ports, a target per service is created using the port attribute defined in the arguments.

Available meta labels:

__meta_dockerswarm_service_id: the ID of the service.
__meta_dockerswarm_service_name: the name of the service.
__meta_dockerswarm_service_mode: the mode of the service.

Component health

discovery.dockerswarm is only reported as unhealthy when given an invalid configuration. In those cases, exported fields retain their last healthy values.

Debug information

discovery.dockerswarm does not expose any component-specific debug information.

Debug metrics

discovery.dockerswarm does not expose any component-specific debug metrics.

Example

This example discovers targets from Docker Swarm tasks:

discovery.dockerswarm "example" {
  host = "unix:///var/run/docker.sock"
  role = "tasks"

  filter {
    name = "id"
    values = ["0kzzo1i0y4jz6027t0k7aezc7"]
  }

  filter {
    name = "desired-state"
    values = ["running", "accepted"]
  }
}

prometheus.scrape "demo" {
  targets    = discovery.dockerswarm.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.
