Caveats

In XML mode (see below) the exporter skips all implicit arrays like this:

<supported_clocks>
  <supported_mem_clock>
    <value>3504 MHz</value>
    <supported_graphics_clock>1721 MHz</supported_graphics_clock> <== will skip all supported_graphics_clock
    <supported_graphics_clock>1708 MHz</supported_graphics_clock>
    <supported_graphics_clock>1695 MHz</supported_graphics_clock>
    <supported_graphics_clock>1683 MHz</supported_graphics_clock>
    <supported_graphics_clock>1670 MHz</supported_graphics_clock>
    <supported_graphics_clock>1657 MHz</supported_graphics_clock>
    <supported_graphics_clock>1645 MHz</supported_graphics_clock>
    <supported_graphics_clock>1632 MHz</supported_graphics_clock>

Also, it skips all empty and "N/A" values (and their keys accordingly).

Prometheus is not supporting string values, thus exporter converts some strings to numbers:

Disabled, Not Active, No, Not Supported and Unsupported will convert to 0
Enabled, Active, Yes, Supported will convert to 1
P0..P15 will convert to 0..15
1x, 2x, 4x, 8x, 16x, 32x (pci lines) will convert to 1,2,4,8,16,32
Default, Exclusive_Thread, Prohibited, Exclusive_Process (_compute_mode) will convert to 0..3

Other not integer/float strings will eliminate.

Run in Docker

nvidia-smi requires using the same versions of packages (libnvidia-compute-460 and nvidia-utils-460) inside the container and outside (on the host).

Get driver version on the host:

> dpkg --list | grep nvidia-driver-460
ii  nvidia-driver-460                    460.27.04-0ubuntu1                    amd64        NVIDIA driver metapackage

Build container with appropriate version of driver:
```
> docker build . --tag nvidia-smi-exporter --build-arg NVIDIA_VERSION=460.27.04-0ubuntu1
```
All available versions can be found in the Cuda repository

Run with --privileged flag (not recommended due to security)

> docker run --rm --privileged -p 9454:9454 nvidia-smi-exporter

or enumerating (map inside container) all devices explicitly

> docker run --rm \
  --device /dev/nvidiactl:/dev/nvidiactl \
  --device /dev/nvidia0:/dev/nvidia0 \
  --device /dev/nvidia1:/dev/nvidia1 \
  -p 9454:9454 nvidia-smi-exporter

Parameters

There are several environment variables to setting runtime parameters:

NVIDIA_SMI_EXPORTER_BINARY - path to nvidia-smi executive binary, default: $(which nvidia-smi)
NVIDIA_SMI_EXPORTER_PORT - a port where the server will be started, default: 9454
NVIDIA_SMI_EXPORTER_HOST - a host where the server will be started, default: 0.0.0.0
NVIDIA_SMI_EXPORTER_NAME_PREFIX - prefix for every parameter name in output, default: nvidia_smi_
NVIDIA_SMI_EXPORTER_SOURCE - source to processing - xml or csv, default: xml.

When NVIDIA_SMI_EXPORTER_SOURCE == csv:

NVIDIA_SMI_EXPORTER_QUERY - comma-separated list to query parameters from nvidia-smi, default: clocks.current.graphics,clocks.current.memory,clocks.current.sm,clocks.current.video,clocks.max.graphics,clocks.max.memory,clocks.max.sm,fan.speed,memory.total,memory.used,power.draw,power.limit,temperature.gpu,utilization.gpu,utilization.memory
