Simple Metrics Generator

Simple Prometheus metrics generator.

Usage

cat metadata | generate_metrics tempurature 50

with your metadata file looking something like

unit="F", computer="computer5"

From here you could then redirect stdout into a file, then host the file with something like Caddy for Prometheus to scrape.

A simple "down detector"

cat metadata | generate_metrics cloudflare $(ping -c 1 1.1.1.1 &> /dev/null ; echo $?) > /srv/metrics/cloudflare

metics.*:80 {
	fileserver /srv/metrics/cloudflare
}
