Telegraf Plugin: Redis

Configuration:

# Read Redis's basic status information
[[inputs.redis]]
  ## specify servers via a url matching:
  ##  [protocol://][:password]@address[:port]
  ##  e.g.
  ##    tcp://localhost:6379
  ##    tcp://:password@192.168.99.100
  ##
  ## If no servers are specified, then localhost is used as the host.
  ## If no port is specified, 6379 is used
  servers = ["tcp://localhost:6379"]

  ## specify server password
  # password = "s#cr@t%"

  ## Optional TLS Config
  # tls_ca = "/etc/telegraf/ca.pem"
  # tls_cert = "/etc/telegraf/cert.pem"
  # tls_key = "/etc/telegraf/key.pem"
  ## Use TLS but skip chain & host verification
  # insecure_skip_verify = true

Measurements & Fields:

The plugin gathers the results of the INFO redis command. There are two separate measurements: redis and redis_keyspace, the latter is used for gathering database related statistics.

Additionally the plugin also calculates the hit/miss ratio (keyspace_hitrate) and the elapsed time since the last rdb save (rdb_last_save_time_elapsed).

• redis

  • keyspace_hitrate(float, number)
  • rdb_last_save_time_elapsed(int, seconds)

  Server

  • uptime(int, seconds)
  • lru_clock(int, number)
  • redis_version(string)

  Clients

  • clients(int, number)
  • client_longest_output_list(int, number)
  • client_biggest_input_buf(int, number)
  • blocked_clients(int, number)

  • fields:

    • lag(int, number)
    • offset(int, number)

Tags:

• All measurements have the following tags:

  • port
  • server
  • replication_role

• The redis_keyspace measurement has an additional database tag:

  • database

• The redis_cmdstat measurement has an additional tag:

  • command

Example Output:

Using this configuration:

[[inputs.redis]]
  ## specify servers via a url matching:
  ##  [protocol://][:password]@address[:port]
  ##  e.g.
  ##    tcp://localhost:6379
  ##    tcp://:password@192.168.99.100
  ##
  ## If no servers are specified, then localhost is used as the host.
  ## If no port is specified, 6379 is used
  servers = ["tcp://localhost:6379"]

When run with:

./telegraf --config telegraf.conf --input-filter redis --test

It produces:
