Overview
The sensu-go-postgres-metrics is a sensu check that collects PostgreSQL metrics.
Metrics are output in Graphite form.
Supports PostgreSQL version >= 10.
This is the first release, mainly testing integration into my environment for now.
Known issues
- This is my first time writing in Go and contributing to Sensu, unexpected issues may occur, please let me know
- Check uses system installed
psql
command, in future will migrate to go library such as pq - Check does not take connection paremeters for host, port, etc., will add when migrated to library
- Output is not sorted, future release
- Replication delay metric only works for WAL shipping, streaming, and logical replication. WAL shipping and streaming replication delay is calculated on the slave server, logical on the publisher
- Logical replication only works with one subscriber
Usage examples
Run example
sensu-go-postgres-metrics --database postgres --username repmgr
