const (
	// TimestampKey is the key used in events created by MetricSets to add their
	// own timestamp to an event. If a timestamp is not specified then the that
	// the fetch started will be used.
	TimestampKey string = "@timestamp"

	// ModuleDataKey is the key used in events created by MetricSets to add data
	// to an event that is common to the module. The data must be a
	// common.MapStr and when the final event is built the object will be stored
	// in the event under a key that is the module name.
	ModuleDataKey string = "_module"

	// NamespaceKey is used to define a different namespace for the metricset
	// This is useful for dynamic metricsets or metricsets which do not
	// put the name under the same name as the package. This is for example
	// the case in elasticsearch `node_stats` which puts the data under `node.stats`.
	NamespaceKey string = "_namespace"

	// RTTKey is used by a MetricSet to specify the round trip time (RTT), or
	// total amount of time, taken to collect the information in the event. The
	// data must be of type time.Duration otherwise the value is ignored.
	RTTKey string = "_rtt"
)

var DefaultModuleFactory = func(base BaseModule) (Module, error) {
	return &base, nil
}

DefaultModuleFactory returns the given BaseModule and never returns an error. If a MetricSets are registered without an associated ModuleFactory, then the DefaultModuleFactory will be used to instantiate a Module.

var Registry = NewRegister()

Registry is the singleton Register instance where all ModuleFactory's and MetricSetFactory's should be registered.

Functions

func AddMetricSetInfo

func AddMetricSetInfo(module, metricset string, event *Event)

AddMetricSetInfo is an EventModifier that adds information about the MetricSet that generated the event. It will always add the metricset and module names. And it will add the host, namespace, and rtt (round-trip time in microseconds) values if they are non-zero values.

"metricset": {
  "host": "apache",
  "module": "apache",
  "name": "status",
  "rtt": 115
}

func NewModule

func NewModule(config *common.Config, r *Register) (Module, []MetricSet, error)

NewModule builds a new Module and its associated MetricSets based on the provided configuration data. config contains config data (the data will be unpacked into ModuleConfig structs). r is the Register where the ModuleFactory's and MetricSetFactory's will be obtained from. This method returns a Module and its configured MetricSets or an error.

Types

type BaseMetricSet

type BaseMetricSet struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

BaseMetricSet implements the MetricSet interface.

The BaseMetricSet type can be embedded into another struct to satisfy the MetricSet interface requirements, leaving only the Fetch() method to be implemented to have a complete MetricSet implementation.

func (*BaseMetricSet) GoString

func (b *BaseMetricSet) GoString() string

func (*BaseMetricSet) Host

func (b *BaseMetricSet) Host() string

Host returns the hostname or other module specific value that identifies a specific host or service instance from which to collect metrics.

func (*BaseMetricSet) HostData

func (b *BaseMetricSet) HostData() HostData

HostData returns the parsed host data.

func (*BaseMetricSet) Module

func (b *BaseMetricSet) Module() Module

Module returns the parent Module for the MetricSet.

func (*BaseMetricSet) Name

func (b *BaseMetricSet) Name() string

Name returns the name of the MetricSet. It should not include the name of the module.

func (*BaseMetricSet) Registration

func (b *BaseMetricSet) Registration() MetricSetRegistration

Registration returns the parameters that were used when the MetricSet was registered with the registry.

func (*BaseMetricSet) String

func (b *BaseMetricSet) String() string

type BaseModule

type BaseModule struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

BaseModule implements the Module interface.

When a Module needs to store additional data or provide methods to its MetricSets, it can embed this type into another struct to satisfy the Module interface requirements.

func (*BaseModule) Config

func (m *BaseModule) Config() ModuleConfig

Config returns the ModuleConfig used to create the Module.

func (*BaseModule) GoString

func (m *BaseModule) GoString() string

func (*BaseModule) Name

func (m *BaseModule) Name() string

Name returns the name of the Module.

func (*BaseModule) String

func (m *BaseModule) String() string

func (*BaseModule) UnpackConfig

func (m *BaseModule) UnpackConfig(to interface{}) error

UnpackConfig unpacks the raw module config to the given object.

type Closer

type Closer interface {
	Close() error
}

Closer is an optional interface that a MetricSet can implement in order to cleanup any resources it has open at shutdown.

type Event

type Event struct {
	RootFields      common.MapStr // Fields that will be added to the root of the event.
	ModuleFields    common.MapStr // Fields that will be namespaced under [module].
	MetricSetFields common.MapStr // Fields that will be namespaced under [module].[metricset].

	Namespace string        // Fully qualified namespace to use for MetricSetFields.
	Timestamp time.Time     // Timestamp when the event data was collected.
	Error     error         // Error that occurred while collecting the event data.
	Host      string        // Host from which the data was collected.
	Took      time.Duration // Amount of time it took to collect the event data.
}

Event contains the data generated by a MetricSet.

func TransformMapStrToEvent

func TransformMapStrToEvent(module string, m common.MapStr, err error) Event

TransformMapStrToEvent transforms a common.MapStr produced by MetricSet (like any MetricSet that does not natively produce a mb.Event). It accounts for the special key names and routes the data stored under those keys to the correct location in the event.

func (*Event) BeatEvent

func (e *Event) BeatEvent(module, metricSet string, modifiers ...EventModifier) beat.Event

BeatEvent returns a new beat.Event containing the data this Event. It does mutate the underlying data in the Event.

type EventFetcher

type EventFetcher interface {
	MetricSet
	Fetch() (common.MapStr, error)
}

EventFetcher is a MetricSet that returns a single event when collecting data. Use ReportingMetricSet for new MetricSet implementations.

type EventModifier

type EventModifier func(module, metricset string, event *Event)

EventModifier is a function that can modifies an Event. This is typically used to apply transformations to an Event as it is converted to a beat.Event. An example is AddMetricSetInfo.

type EventsFetcher

type EventsFetcher interface {
	MetricSet
	Fetch() ([]common.MapStr, error)
}

EventsFetcher is a MetricSet that returns a multiple events when collecting data. Use ReportingMetricSet for new MetricSet implementations.

type HostData

type HostData struct {
	URI          string // The full URI that should be used in connections.
	SanitizedURI string // A sanitized version of the URI without credentials.

	Host     string // The host and possibly port.
	User     string // Username
	Password string // Password
}

HostData contains values parsed from the 'host' configuration. Other configuration data like protocols, usernames, and passwords may also be used to construct this HostData data.

func (HostData) GoString

func (h HostData) GoString() string

func (HostData) String

func (h HostData) String() string

type HostParser

type HostParser func(module Module, host string) (HostData, error)

HostParser is a function that parses a host value from the configuration and returns a HostData object. The module is provided in case additional configuration values are required to parse and build the HostData object. An error should be returned if the host or configuration is invalid.

type MetricSet

type MetricSet interface {
	Name() string   // Name returns the name of the MetricSet.
	Module() Module // Module returns the parent Module for the MetricSet.
	Host() string   // Host returns a hostname or other module specific value
	// that identifies a specific host or service instance from which to collect
	// metrics.
	HostData() HostData                  // HostData returns the parsed host data.
	Registration() MetricSetRegistration // Params used in registration.
}

MetricSet is the common interface for all MetricSet implementations. In addition to this interface, all MetricSets must implement either EventFetcher or EventsFetcher (but not both).

type MetricSetFactory

type MetricSetFactory func(base BaseMetricSet) (MetricSet, error)

MetricSetFactory accepts a BaseMetricSet and returns a MetricSet. If there was an error creating the MetricSet then an error will be returned. The returned MetricSet must also implement either EventFetcher or EventsFetcher (but not both).

type MetricSetOption

type MetricSetOption func(info *MetricSetRegistration)

MetricSetOption sets an option for a MetricSetFactory that is being registered.

func DefaultMetricSet

func DefaultMetricSet() MetricSetOption

DefaultMetricSet specifies that the MetricSetFactory will be the default when no MetricSet names are specified in the configuration.

func WithHostParser

func WithHostParser(p HostParser) MetricSetOption

WithHostParser specifies the HostParser that should be used with the MetricSet.

func WithNamespace

func WithNamespace(namespace string) MetricSetOption

WithNamespace specifies the fully qualified namespace under which MetricSet data will be added. If no namespace is specified then [module].[metricset] will be used.

type MetricSetRegistration

type MetricSetRegistration struct {
	Name    string
	Factory MetricSetFactory

	// Options
	IsDefault  bool
	HostParser HostParser
	Namespace  string
}

MetricSetRegistration contains the parameters that were used to register a MetricSet.

type Module

type Module interface {
	Name() string                      // Name returns the name of the Module.
	Config() ModuleConfig              // Config returns the ModuleConfig used to create the Module.
	UnpackConfig(to interface{}) error // UnpackConfig unpacks the raw module config to the given object.
}

Module is the common interface for all Module implementations.

type ModuleConfig

type ModuleConfig struct {
	Hosts      []string      `config:"hosts"`
	Period     time.Duration `config:"period"     validate:"positive"`
	Timeout    time.Duration `config:"timeout"    validate:"positive"`
	Module     string        `config:"module"     validate:"required"`
	MetricSets []string      `config:"metricsets"`
	Enabled    bool          `config:"enabled"`
	Raw        bool          `config:"raw"`
}

ModuleConfig is the base configuration data for all Modules.

The Raw config option is used to enable raw fields in a metricset. This means the metricset fetches not only the predefined fields but add alls raw data under the raw namespace to the event.

func DefaultModuleConfig

func DefaultModuleConfig() ModuleConfig

DefaultModuleConfig returns a ModuleConfig with the default values populated.

func (ModuleConfig) GoString

func (c ModuleConfig) GoString() string

func (ModuleConfig) String

func (c ModuleConfig) String() string

type ModuleFactory

type ModuleFactory func(base BaseModule) (Module, error)

ModuleFactory accepts a BaseModule and returns a Module. If there was an error creating the Module then an error will be returned.

Example

ExampleModuleFactory demonstrates how to register a custom ModuleFactory and unpack additional configuration data.

package main

import (
	"github.com/elastic/beats/metricbeat/mb"
)

func init() {
	// Register the ModuleFactory function for the "example" module.
	if err := mb.Registry.AddModule("example", NewModule); err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
}

type Module struct {
	mb.BaseModule
	Protocol string
}

func NewModule(base mb.BaseModule) (mb.Module, error) {
	// Unpack additional configuration options.
	config := struct {
		Protocol string `config:"protocol"`
	}{
		Protocol: "udp",
	}
	if err := base.UnpackConfig(&config); err != nil {
		return nil, err
	}

	return &Module{BaseModule: base, Protocol: config.Protocol}, nil
}

// ExampleModuleFactory demonstrates how to register a custom ModuleFactory
// and unpack additional configuration data.
func main() {}

type PushMetricSet deprecated

type PushMetricSet interface {
	MetricSet
	Run(r PushReporter)
}

PushMetricSet is a MetricSet that pushes events (rather than pulling them periodically via a Fetch callback). Run is invoked to start the event subscription and it should block until the MetricSet is ready to stop or the PushReporter's done channel is closed.

Deprecated: Use PushMetricSetV2.

type PushMetricSetV2

type PushMetricSetV2 interface {
	MetricSet
	Run(r PushReporterV2)
}

PushMetricSetV2 is a MetricSet that pushes events (rather than pulling them periodically via a Fetch callback). Run is invoked to start the event subscription and it should block until the MetricSet is ready to stop or the PushReporterV2's done channel is closed.

type PushReporter deprecated

type PushReporter interface {
	Reporter

	// Done returns a channel that's closed when work done on behalf of this
	// reporter should be canceled.
	Done() <-chan struct{}
}

PushReporter is used by a MetricSet to report events, errors, or errors with metadata. It provides a done channel used to signal that reporter should stop.

Deprecated: Use PushReporterV2.

type PushReporterV2

type PushReporterV2 interface {
	ReporterV2

	// Done returns a channel that's closed when work done on behalf of this
	// reporter should be canceled.
	Done() <-chan struct{}
}

	Error(err error) bool                         // Error reports a single error event.
}

Reporter is used by a MetricSet to report events, errors, or errors with metadata. The methods return false if and only if publishing failed because the MetricSet is being closed.

Deprecated: Use ReporterV2.

type ReporterV2

type ReporterV2 interface {
	Event(event Event) bool // Event reports a single successful event.
	Error(err error) bool
}

ReporterV2 is used by a MetricSet to report Events. The methods return false if and only if publishing failed because the MetricSet is being closed.

type ReportingMetricSet deprecated
