Telegraf Plugins

This is a collection of Telegraf plugins.

These plugins are now ready:

• ds389: a 389ds metrics collection from cn=monitor.
• ldap_org: monitor number of entries inside LDAP trees.

They are based on the initial idea and work by Olivier JUDITH (@gnulux).

Install Instructions

Download the repository:

$ git clone https://github.com/falon/telegraf-plugins.git

Build the binary:

$ go build -o telegraf-<plugin_name> cmd/main-<plugin_name>.go

You should then be able to call this from telegraf now using:

[[inputs.execd]]
   command = ["/path/to/telegraf-<plugin_name>", "-config", "/etc/telegraf-external/<plugin_name>.conf"]
   [inputs.execd.tags]
      instance = "default"

If you want any tags, just add them to execd plugin as above. Tags in the external plugin configuration file doesn't work.

By RPM

You can install using RPM in Centos/EL8 systems following these instructions.

In the host where you installed Telegraf:

curl -1sLf \
  'https://dl.cloudsmith.io/public/csi/shared/setup.rpm.sh' \
  | sudo -E bash

This installs the repository. Now you can install the package:

dnf install CSI-telegraf-plugins

This install all our Telegraf external plugins. Configuration files are under

/etc/CSI-telegraf-plugins/

The path to command is /usr/bin.

For instance, if you want add ldap_org to Telegraf add to Telegraf config file the following:

[[inputs.execd]]
   command = ["/usr/bin/telegraf-ldap_org", "-config", "/etc/CSI-telegraf-plugins/ldap_org.conf", "-poll_interval", "24h"]
