Types

type Config

type Config struct {
	config.MonitorConfig `yaml:",inline" acceptsEndpoints:"true"`

	// This should generally not be set manually, but will be filled in by the
	// agent if using service discovery. It can be accessed in the provided
	// config template with `{{.Host}}`.  It will be set to the hostname or IP
	// address of the discovered service. If you aren't using service
	// discovery, you can just hardcode the host/port in the config template
	// and ignore these fields.
	Host string `yaml:"host"`
	// This should generally not be set manually, but will be filled in by the
	// agent if using service discovery. It can be accessed in the provided
	// config template with `{{.Port}}`.  It will be set to the port of the
	// discovered service, if it is a TCP/UDP endpoint.
	Port uint16 `yaml:"port"`
	// This should generally not be set manually, but will be filled in by the
	// agent if using service discovery. It can be accessed in the provided
	// config template with `{{.Name}}`.  It will be set to the name that the
	// observer creates for the endpoint upon discovery.  You can generally
	// ignore this field.
	Name string `yaml:"name"`

	// A config template for collectd.  You can include as many plugin blocks
	// as you want in this value.  It is rendered as a standard Go template, so
	// be mindful of the delimiters `{{` and `}}`.
	Template string `yaml:"template"`
	// A list of templates, but otherwise equivalent to the above `template`
	// option.  This enables you to have a single directory with collectd
	// configuration files and load them all by using a globbed remote config
	// value:
	Templates []string `yaml:"templates"`
}
