Prometheus Pushgateway Handler

Table of Contents

Overview

Push Sensu Go event metrics to a Prometheus Pushgateway. The
Pushgateway can then be scraped by Prometheus. This handler allows
users to collect metrics via several means, including 20+ year old
Nagios plugins with perfdata, and store them in Prometheus.

This handler plugin writes Sensu Go event metrics to the Prometheus
Pushgateway
API
. The plugin can
be configured with a default Prometheus metric type, job name, and
instance name. A Sensu Go event metric point can specify its own
Prometheus metric type, job name, or instance name via its metric
tags, e.g. "prom_type": "gauge", "prom_job": "node", and
"prom_instance": "i-424242". Prometheus must have honor_labels: true in the scrape config for the Pushgateway.
