RabbitMQ Exporter Build Status Coverage Status

Prometheus exporter for RabbitMQ metrics, based on RabbitMQ HTTP API.

Dependencies

Setting up locally rabbitMQ and exporter with docker

  1. Start rabbitMQ

     $ docker run -d -e RABBITMQ_NODENAME=my-rabbit --name my-rabbit -p 15672:15672 -p 9090:9090 rabbitmq:3-management
    
  2. Start rabbitmq_exporter in container.

     $ docker run -d --net=container:my-rabbit kbudde/rabbitmq-exporter
    

Now your metrics are available through http://localhost:9090/metrics.

The rabbitmq_exporter is sharing the network interface with the rabbitmq container -> it is possible to use localhost and default user/password. Disadvantage: you have to publish the port (9090) in the rabbitmq container.

Configuration

Rabbitmq_exporter uses environment variables for configuration. Settings:

  • RABBIT_URL: "http://localhost:15672",
  • RABBIT_USER: "guest",
  • RABBIT_PASSWORD: "guest",
  • PUBLISH_PORT: "9090",
  • OUTPUT_FORMAT: "TTY", //change to JSON if needed
  • LOG_LEVEL: "info", // can be "debug", "info", "warning", "error", "fatal", or "panic"
  • CAFILE: "ca.pem", // default is ca.pem. If file does not exist it will be ignored.
  • SKIPVERIFY: false or 0, true or 1 // will skip hostname/certificate check at all
  • INCLUDE_QUEUES: ".*", // regex, matching queue names are exported
  • SKIP_QUEUES: "^$", // regex, matching queue names are not exported (useful for short-lived rpc queues). First performed INCLUDE, after SKIP

Example

OUTPUT_FORMAT=JSON PUBLISH_PORT=9099 ./rabbitmq_exporter

Queues

Labels: vhost, queue

Gauge
metric description
queue_messages_ready Number of messages ready to be delivered to clients.
queue_messages_unacknowledged Number of messages delivered to clients but not yet acknowledged.
queue_messages Sum of ready and unacknowledged messages (queue depth).
queue_messages_ready_ram Number of messages from messages_ready which are resident in ram.
queue_messages_unacknowledged_ram Number of messages from messages_unacknowledged which are resident in ram.
queue_messages_ram Total number of messages which are resident in ram.
queue_messages_persistent Total number of persistent messages in the queue (will always be 0 for transient queues).
queue_message_bytes Sum of the size of all message bodies in the queue. This does not include the message properties (including headers) or any overhead.
queue_message_bytes_ready Like message_bytes but counting only those messages ready to be delivered to clients.
queue_message_bytes_unacknowledged Like message_bytes but counting only those messages delivered to clients but not yet acknowledged.
queue_message_bytes_ram Like message_bytes but counting only those messages which are in RAM.
queue_message_bytes_persistent Like message_bytes but counting only those messages which are persistent.
queue_consumers Number of consumers.
queue_consumer_utilisation Fraction of the time (between 0.0 and 1.0) that the queue is able to immediately deliver messages to consumers. This can be less than 1.0 if consumers are limited by network congestion or prefetch count.
queue_memory Bytes of memory consumed by the Erlang process associated with the queue, including stack, heap and internal structures.

queue_messages_published_total Count of messages published.
queue_messages_confirmed_total Count of messages confirmed.
queue_messages_delivered_total Count of messages delivered in acknowledgement mode to consumers.
queue_messages_delivered_noack_total Count of messages delivered in no-acknowledgement mode to consumers.
queue_messages_get_total Count of messages delivered in acknowledgement mode in response to basic.get.
queue_messages_get_noack_total Count of messages delivered in no-acknowledgement mode in response to basic.get.
queue_messages_redelivered_total Count of subset of messages in deliver_get which had the redelivered flag set.
queue_messages_returned_total Count of messages returned to publisher as unroutable.

Docker

To create a docker image locally it is recommened to use the Makefile. Promu is used for building the statically linked binary which is added to the scratch image.

   make docker
