Cookbook to install and configure telegraf
This was influenced by SimpleFinanace/chef-influxdb
Note: Some plugins will require other packages be installed and that is out of scope for this
cookbook. ie. [netstat]
requires lsof
Tested Platforms
- CentOS 7.1
- Ubuntu 14.04
Requirements
- Chef 12.5+
Usage
This cookbook can be used by including telegraf::default
in your run list and settings attributes
as needed. Alternatively, you can use the custom resources directly.
Attributes
Key | Type | Description | Default |
---|---|---|---|
node['telegraf']['version'] | String | Version of telegraf to install, nil = latest | nil |
node['telegraf']['config_file_path'] | String | Location of the telgraf main config file | '/etc/opt/telegraf/telegraf.conf' |
node['telegraf']['config'] | Hash | Config variables to be written to the telegraf config | {'tags' => {},'agent' => {'interval' => '10s','round_interval' => true,'flush_interval' => '10s','flush_jitter' => '5s'} |
node['telegraf']['outputs'] | Hash | telegraf outputs | {'outputs' => ['influxdb' => {'urls' => ['http://localhost:8086'],'database' => 'telegraf','precision' => 's'}]} |
node['telegraf']['plugins'] | Hash | telegraf plugins | {'plugins' => {'cpu' => {'percpu' => true,'totalcpu' => true,'drop' => ['cpu_time'],},'disk' => {},'io' => {},'mem' => {},'net' => {},'swap' => {},'system' => {}}} |
Custom Resources
telegraf_install
Installs telegraf and configures the service
telegraf_install 'default' do action :create end
telegraf_config
Writes out the telegraf configuration file. Optionally includes outputs and plugins.
telegraf_config 'default' do path node['telegraf']['config_file_path'] config node['telegraf']['config'] outputs node['telegraf']['outputs'] plugins node['telegraf']['plugins'] end
telegraf_outputs
Writes out telegraf outputs configuration file. You can call this several times to create multiple outputs config files.
telegraf_outputs 'default' do path node['telegraf']['config_file_path'] outputs node['telegraf']['outputs'] end
telegraf_plugins
Writes out telegraf plugins configuration file.
telegraf_plugins 'default' do path node['telegraf']['config_file_path'] plugins node['telegraf']['plugins'] end
You can call this several times to create multiple plugins config files. You'll need to specify different names for each telegraf_plugins resource, so they'll create separate config files.
For example, to add the nginx plugin:
node.default['telegraf']['nginx'] = { 'plugins' => { 'nginx' => { 'urls' => ['http://localhost/status'] } } } telegraf_plugins 'nginx' do path '/etc/opt/telegraf/telegraf.d' plugins node['telegraf']['nginx'] service_name 'default' reload true end
Note that there are two optional parameters for this resource that could've been left out in this case:
- service_name [default: 'default'] if you need to override which service should be restarted when the config changes;
- reload [default: true] whether to restart the service when the config changes;
