RabbitMQ Prometheus.io exporter Build Status Docker Pulls

STOP! This is abandonware!

Modern RabbitMQ release series ship with a built-in Prometheus plugin and a set of Grafana dashboards.

This plugin is obsolete and really should not be used. It will not be compatible with the latest versions of RabbitMQ, you will not get any support for the RabbitMQ Core team, and there are no reasons to choose this plugin over the built-in one.

What does this plugin do?

Implemented as RabbitMQ Management Plugin plugin. Also exports Erlang VM and process metrics (~ 100 metrics in total).

Implemented using Erlang Prometheus.io client

TOC

Versioning

While RabbitMQ transitions from webmachine to cowboy we maintain two branches one for 3.6.x and one for 3.7.x. Plugin version should be read as follows: 3.7.1.x - where 3.7.1 is required RabbitMQ version and x is just incremental version of the plugin.

Installation

Download suitable version and follow regular RabbitMQ plugin installation instructions.

 rabbitmq-plugins enable prometheus_rabbitmq_exporter

If you are running on Linux/FreeBSD/Mac, you may find prometheus_process_exporter useful:

rabbitmq-plugins enable prometheus_process_collector

Prometheus process collector.

Troubleshooting

undef error

If you see something like this:

{could_not_start,rabbitmq_management,
       {undef,
           [{prometheus_http,setup,[],[]}

I.e. undef error mentioning a module starting with prometheus_, chances you forgot to enable a plugin (see #27 for example).

Module prometheus_process_collector is unloadable

{plugin_module_unloadable,"prometheus_process_collector",
                             {error,on_load_failure}}

or

{error,{load_failed,"Failed to load NIF library:
 '/<...>/plugins/prometheus_process_collector-1.1.0/priv/prometheus_process_collector.so:
 failed to map segment from shared object'"}}

Prometheus process collector uses NIFs underneath and failed to load shared object in module on_load callback. Please check that RABBITMQ_PLUGINS_EXPAND_DIR doesn't have noexec flag set (see #26).

Crashes with something like {error,{bad_lib,"Library version (2.11) not compatible (with 2.10)."}}

This means erl_nif version prometheus_process_collector built with differs from yours (see Version Management section). You can rebuild the plugin yourself very easily - clone https://github.com/deadtrickster/prometheus_process_collector.git and run rebar3 archive

Glibc-related errors when prometheus_process_collector enabled

prometheus_process_collector plugin comes with prebuilt shared object. And it looks like my Glibc version differs from yours. You can rebuild the plugin yourself very easily - clone https://github.com/deadtrickster/prometheus_process_collector.git and run rebar3 archive

Latest Docker:

docker run -p 8080:15672 deadtrickster/rabbitmq_prometheus

Alpine-based image is also available: docker run -p 8080:15672 deadtrickster/rabbitmq_prometheus:latest-alpine

Configuration

This exporter supports the following options via rabbitmq_exporter entry of prometheus app env:

  • path - scrape endpoint. Default is "metrics". Note RabbitMQ translates this to "{management_plugin_path_prefix}/api/metrics";
  • use_mgmt_auth - use built-in management auth. Default is false. If true, relies on management plugin for authentication (that guest:guest on fresh setups);
  • format - scrape format. Default is prometheus_text_format;
  • exchange_messages_stat - same as queue_messages_state but for the exchanges;
  • queue_messages_stat - messages state to export. Default is hopefully reasonable. You can read more about possible values here;
  • connections_total_enabled - Default is false. If true, the exporter will iterate over all connections and export count grouped by connection state (running, flow, etc).

Sample /etc/rabbitmq/rabbitmq.config showing how to customize the scrape path, and connections_total_enabled:

[
 {rabbit, [
   {loopback_users, []},
   {tcp_listeners, [5672]},
   {ssl_listeners, []}
 ]},
 {prometheus, [
   {rabbitmq_exporter, [
     {path, "/mymetrics"},
     {connections_total_enabled, true}
   ]}
 ]},
 {rabbitmq_management, [
   {listener, [
     {port, 15672},
     {ssl, false}
   ]}
 ]}
].
