Snap for Prometheus HAProxy Exporter
This snap includes haproxy_exporter to provide HAProxy statistics via Prometheus.
Grafana dashboards can then be used to visualize the exported metrics.
How-To
How to install the snap:
sudo snap install haproxy-exporter
The snap will start scraping HAProxy stats from http://localhost:8404 and expose
them on localhost:9101/metrics for Prometheus consumption by default.
The ?stats;csv suffix is appended to the scrape URI automatically.
How to configure the service:
The haproxy-exporter can be configured by setting the snap configuration options.
For example:
# Get all the configuration options
sudo snap get haproxy-exporter
# Set a different HAProxy scrape URI (basic auth credentials are supported)
sudo snap set haproxy-exporter scrape-uri=http://user:pass@localhost:8404
# Set a different exporter listen address and port
sudo snap set haproxy-exporter web.listen-address=localhost:9664
# Restart the exporter service to apply the changes
sudo snap restart haproxy-exporter.exporter
