HAProxy Exporter

This snap includes haproxy_exporter to provide HAProxy statistics via Prometheus. Grafana dashboards can then be used to visualize the exported metrics.

How-To

How to install the snap:

sudo snap install haproxy-exporter

The snap will start scraping HAProxy stats from http://localhost:8404 and expose them on localhost:9101/metrics for Prometheus consumption by default. The ?stats;csv suffix is appended to the scrape URI automatically.

How to configure the service:

The haproxy-exporter can be configured by setting the snap configuration options.
For example:

# Get all the configuration options
sudo snap get haproxy-exporter

# Set a different HAProxy scrape URI (basic auth credentials are supported)
sudo snap set haproxy-exporter scrape-uri=http://user:pass@localhost:8404

# Set a different exporter listen address and port
sudo snap set haproxy-exporter web.listen-address=localhost:9664

# Restart the exporter service to apply the changes
sudo snap restart haproxy-exporter.exporter

Reference

Available configuration options:

• scrape-uri: the URI on which to scrape HAProxy stats. Basic auth credentials can be embedded in the URI (e.g. http://user:pass@host:port). The default is http://localhost:8404.
• web.listen-address: the address and port on which the exporter exposes metrics. The default is localhost:9101.
