CGroups exporter

Exporter for CGroups metrics, for LXD/Docker/systemd.

Installation

pip install cgroups-exporter
cgroups-exporter --cgroups-path "/sys/fs/cgroup/*/lxc.payload.*"

Usage

Args that start with -- (eg. -s) can also be set in a config file (~/.cgroups-exporter.conf or /etc/cgroups-exporter.conf).

Config file syntax allows: key=value, flag=true, stuff=[a,b,c] (for details, see syntax here).

If an arg is specified in more than one place, then commandline values override environment variables which override config file values which override defaults.
