A Snap collector that wraps existing Diamond collectors

Diamond is a Python daemon that collects metrics. This snap plugin wraps Diamond plugins so they can be easily consumed by Snap.

Getting started

System requirements

• Python2 (>=2.7)
• Linux
• Required if building the the plugin package
  • acbuild required for create a package
  • pyenv
• Required for testing plugin
  • tox (install using pip install tox)

Installation

Download

You can get the pre-built plugin package for Linux (x86-64) here.

To package the plugin

You will need to be on Linux with Python 2.7 or Python3 and a virtualenv activated.

To build package with virtual environment included you will need pyenv installed on your system.

Just run the make pkg command to build ACI package. Package file will be available under "dist" folder.

NOTE: If you got Snap error "received metric with bad version" during development (after adding some commits), run "git tag -af <YOUR_VERSION> -m <VERSION_INFO>" or just "git tag -f <YOUR_VERSION>" to update version tag, and rebuild package. Plugin version is gathered from git tags.

Example

Start snapteld

Before the plugin can be loaded a global config entry for 'diamond' under collectors needs to be present with entries for 'collectors_path' and 'config'. Below is an example (diamond.yml) config:

---
    control:
    plugins:
        collector:
        diamond:
            versions:
            1:
                collectors_path: "/etc/diamond/collectors"
                config: |
                    {"collectors":{
                            "PingCollector": {"target_google": "8.8.8.8",
                                            "target_grafana": "grafana.net",
                                            "bin": "/bin/ping"},
                            "CPUCollector": {},
                            "DiskUsageCollector": {},
                            "MemoryCollector": {},
                            "IPCollector": {},
                            "VMStatCollector": {}
                    }}

To start snapteld with the above config: snapteld -t 0 -l 1 --config diamond.yml

Load the plugin

You can download the plugin package [here](http://snap.ci.snap-telemetry.io/\ plugins/snap-plugin-collector-diamond/latest/linux/x86_64/snap-plugin
-collector-diamond.aci). You can find more information on snap plugin packaging [here](https://github.com/intelsdi-x/snap/blob/master/docs/\ PLUGIN_PACKAGING.md) and [here](https://intelsdi-x.github.io/snap-plugin-lib-\ py/plugin_authoring/packaging.html).

snaptel plugin load snap-plugin-collector-diamond.aci

An alternative approach would be to load the snap_diamond.py file however this would require that the Python environment available to the user running snapteld has all dependencies installed to it.

Start a task

After starting snapteld and loading the plugin we will load the following task.

---
  version: 1
  schedule:
    type: "simple"
    interval: "1s"
  workflow:
    collect:
      metrics:
        /diamond/*: {}

snaptel task create -t examples/tasks/all.yml
