+ description: |
+ The `go_expvar` collector is disabled by default. To enable it, use `edit-config` from the Netdata [config directory](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/nodes.md), which is typically at `/etc/netdata`, to edit the `python.d.conf` file.
+
+ ```bash
+ cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different
+ sudo ./edit-config python.d.conf
+ ```
+
+ Change the value of the `go_expvar` setting to `yes`. Save the file and restart the Netdata Agent with `sudo systemctl restart netdata`, or the [appropriate method](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/start-stop-restart.md) for your system.

The `expvar` package exposes metrics over HTTP and is very easy to use.
