- Export metrics to Google Cloud Pub/Sub Service

-setup:
- prerequisites:
- list:
- - title: ''
- description: |
- - First [install](https://github.com/googleapis/google-cloud-cpp/) install Google Cloud Platform C++ Client Libraries
- - Pub/Sub support is also dependent on the dependencies of those libraries, like `protobuf`, `protoc`, and `grpc`
- - Next, Netdata should be re-installed from the source. The installer will detect that the required libraries are now available.
- configuration:
- file:
- name: 'exporting.conf'
- options:
- description: |
- The following options can be defined for this exporter.
- folding:
- title: 'Config options'
- enabled: true
- list:
- - name: 'enabled'
- default_value: 'no'
- description: 'Enables or disables an exporting connector instance (yes|no).'
- required: true
- - name: 'destination'
- default_value: 'pubsub.googleapis.com'
- description: 'Accepts a space separated list of hostnames, IPs (IPv4 and IPv6) and ports to connect to. Netdata will use the first available to send the metrics.'
- required: true
- detailed_description: |
- The format of each item in this list, is: [PROTOCOL:]IP[:PORT].
- - PROTOCOL can be udp or tcp. tcp is the default and only supported by the current exporting engine.
- - IP can be XX.XX.XX.XX (IPv4), or [XX:XX...XX:XX] (IPv6). For IPv6 you can to enclose the IP in [] to separate it from the port.
- - PORT can be a number of a service name. If omitted, the default port for the exporting connector will be used.
-
- Example IPv4:
- ```yaml
- destination = pubsub.googleapis.com
- ```
- When multiple servers are defined, Netdata will try the next one when the previous one fails.
- - name: 'username'
- default_value: 'my_username'
- description: 'Username for HTTP authentication'
- required: false
- - name: 'password'
- default_value: 'my_password'
- description: 'Password for HTTP authentication'
- required: false
- - name: 'data source'
- default_value: ''
- description: 'Selects the kind of data that will be sent to the external database. (as collected|average|sum)'
- required: false
- - name: 'hostname'
- default_value: '[global].hostname'
- description: 'The hostname to be used for sending data to the external database server.'
- required: false
- - name: 'prefix'
- default_value: 'Netdata'
- description: 'The prefix to add to all metrics.'
- required: false
- - name: 'update every'
- default_value: '10'
- description: |
- Frequency of sending sending data to the external database, in seconds.
- required: false
- detailed_description: |
- Netdata will add some randomness to this number, to prevent stressing the external server when many Netdata servers
- send data to the same database. This randomness does not affect the quality of the data, only the time they are sent.
- - name: 'buffer on failures'
- default_value: '10'
- description: |
- The number of iterations (`update every` seconds) to buffer data, when the external database server is not available.
- required: false
- detailed_description: |
- If the server fails to receive the data after that many failures, data loss on the connector instance is expected (Netdata will also log it).
- - name: 'timeout ms'
- default_value: '2 * update_every * 1000'
- description: 'The timeout in milliseconds to wait for the external database server to process the data.'
- required: false
- - name: 'send hosts matching'
- default_value: 'localhost *'
- description: |
- Hosts filter. Determines which hosts will be sent to the external database. The syntax is [simple patterns](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/tree/master/libnetdata/simple_pattern#simple-patterns).
- required: false
- detailed_description: |
- Includes one or more space separated patterns, using * as wildcard (any number of times within each pattern).
- The patterns are checked against the hostname (the localhost is always checked as localhost), allowing us to
- filter which hosts will be sent to the external database when this Netdata is a central Netdata aggregating multiple hosts.
-
- A pattern starting with `!` gives a negative match. So to match all hosts named `*db*` except hosts containing `*child*`,
- use `!*child* *db*` (so, the order is important: the first pattern matching the hostname will be used - positive or negative).
- - name: 'send charts matching'
- default_value: '*'
- description: |
- One or more space separated patterns (use * as wildcard) checked against both chart id and chart name.
- required: false
- detailed_description: |
- A pattern starting with ! gives a negative match. So to match all charts named apps.* except charts ending in *reads,
- use !*reads apps.* (so, the order is important: the first pattern matching the chart id or the chart name will be used,
- positive or negative). There is also a URL parameter filter that can be used while querying allmetrics. The URL parameter
- has a higher priority than the configuration option.
- - name: 'send names instead of ids'
- default_value: ''
- description: 'Controls the metric names Netdata should send to the external database (yes|no).'
- required: false
- detailed_description: |
- Netdata supports names and IDs for charts and dimensions. Usually IDs are unique identifiers as read by the system and names
- are human friendly labels (also unique). Most charts and metrics have the same ID and name, but in several cases they are
- different : disks with device-mapper, interrupts, QoS classes, statsd synthetic charts, etc.
- - name: 'send configured labels'
- default_value: ''
- description: 'Controls if host labels defined in the `[host labels]` section in `netdata.conf` should be sent to the external database (yes|no).'
- required: false
- - name: 'send automatic labels'
- default_value: ''
- description: 'Controls if automatically created labels, like `_os_name` or `_architecture` should be sent to the external database (yes|no).'

- - Set the destination option to a Pub/Sub service endpoint. pubsub.googleapis.com is the default one.
- - Create the credentials JSON file by following Google Cloud's authentication guide.
- - The user running the Agent (typically netdata) needs read access to google_cloud_credentials.json, which you can set
- `chmod 400 google_cloud_credentials.json; chown netdata google_cloud_credentials.json`
- - Set the credentials file option to the full path of the file.
