Saltstack Exporter for Prometheus

This exporter allows scraping of data from a Saltstack minion. The exporter must run on a minion, and have permission to execute commands locally.

To install and run:

pip install saltstack_exporter
saltstack_exporter

The direct invocation works since pip installs a wrapper executable script. If this does not work on your platform, call python directly on exporter.py in the site_packages directory. For example, on Linux with Python 2.7:

python /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/saltstack_exporter/exporter.py

Configuration

Below are the available flags:

usage: exporter.py [-h] [--listen-addr LISTEN_ADDR] [--listen-port LISTEN_PORT]
                   [--highstate-interval HIGHSTATE_INTERVAL]
                   [--log-level LOG_LEVEL]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --listen-addr LISTEN_ADDR
                        address to bind to (default: 0.0.0.0)
  --listen-port LISTEN_PORT
                        port to bind to (default: 9175)
  --highstate-interval HIGHSTATE_INTERVAL
                        interval between highstate test runs (default: 300)
  --log-level LOG_LEVEL
                        log level (default: WARN)

Metrics

Currently, the exporter exposes metrics for highstate conformity only:

Metric Description
saltstack_states_total Number of states which apply to the minion in highstate
saltstack_nonhigh_states Number of states which would change on state.highstate
saltstack_error_states Number of states which returns an error on highstate dry-run
saltstack_last_highstate Timestamp of the last highstate test run
