stackdriver-pushgateway

The Stackdriver Pushgateway exists to allow jobs to expose their metrics to Stackdriver. It is compatible with the prometheus gateway:

echo "some_metric 3.14" | curl --data-binary @- http://stackgateway.domain.com/metrics/label1/value1/label2/value2

only pushing metrics is really compatible to prometheus (not deleting etc)

Installation

We provide a bare Dockerfile to run the pushgateway, but it essentially simply does and npm install and run the index.js, so feel free to run this however you prefer :)

The environment variables needed by the pushgateway are:

• PROJECT_ID: name of the GCP project you want to send metrics to
• HTTP_PORT: port the server is going to listen on (default is 8080)
• GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS: path to your Google application credentials (default /credentials/credentials.json)

...start the app and have fun monitoring on StackDriver!
