Currently "path" is not exported, giving this error when users try to
override the variable via telegraf.conf as per the sample config:

field corresponding to path' is not defined in *ipmi_sensor.Ipmi'

Exporting the variable solves the problem.

Config:

[[inputs.ipmi_sensor]]
  path = "/usr/local/bin/ipmitool_sdr_f"

Before:

$ sudo telegraf -test
2017/03/06 17:09:12 I! Using config file: /etc/telegraf/telegraf.conf
2017/03/06 17:09:12 E! Error parsing /etc/telegraf/telegraf.conf, line 50: field corresponding to `path' is not defined in `*ipmi_sensor.Ipmi'

After:

$ sudo telegraf -test
2017/03/06 17:17:15 I! Using config file: /etc/telegraf/telegraf.conf
[...]
* Plugin: inputs.ipmi_sensor, Collection 1
> ipmi_sensor,unit=degrees_f,host=filesrv.rob86.net,name=cpu_temp status=1i,value=102.2 1488849436000000000

Required for all PRs:

  • CHANGELOG.md updated (we recommend not updating this until the PR has been approved by a maintainer)
  • Sign CLA (if not already signed)
  • README.md updated (if adding a new plugin)

Try as I might I couldn't find a way to get ipmitool to use Fahrenheit
instead of Celsius. I looked in the ipmitool source (which has "degrees
F" but no option to force it), in the ipmi0 kernel module source, and in
my BIOS settings. Nothing.

The solution is to write a wrapper AWK program that does the conversion
for Telegraf.

Won't work until (hopefully)
influxdata/telegraf#2498 is merged.

Not collecting Docker metrics since it requires adding Telegraf to the
"docker" group to give it access to the Docker unix socket. I didn't
really like that from a security perspective. Better to just give up on
that.

Looks like unrelated tests for inputs/socket_listener failed.
