GoDoc Build Status Go Report Card

promplot is an opinionated tool to create plots from your Prometheus metrics and automatically sends them to you.

Slack example:

promplot -title "Open File Descriptors" -query "process_open_fds" -range "7d" -url $promurl -slack $slacktoken -channel stats

Currently the only implemented transport is Slack. But feel free to add a new one!

  -query string
        Required. PQL query.

        Required. Time to look back to. Format: 5d12h34m56s

Install

  • With Go:
go get qvl.io/promplot
brew install qvl/tap/promplot

Examples

It's simple to create a shell script for multiple plots:

Slack

common="-url $promurl -channel stats -slack $slacktoken -range 24h"

promplot $common \
  -title "Free memory in MB" \
  -query "node_memory_MemFree /1024 /1024"

promplot $common \
  -title "Free disk space in GB" \
  -query "node_filesystem_free /1024 /1024 /1024"

promplot $common \
  -title "Open file descriptors" \
  -query "process_open_fds"

Mailing results

There is no mail transport built into promplot but you can use the Linux mail utility instead:

tmp="$(mktemp -d)"
common="-url $promurl -range 24h"

promplot $common \
  -title "Free memory in MB" \
  -query "node_memory_MemFree /1024 /1024" \
  -file ${tmp}/memory.png

promplot $common \
  -title "Open file descriptors" \
  -query "process_open_fds" \
  -file ${tmp}/fds.png

echo "Your daily report is here." | mail \
  -s "Daily server stats" \
  -a ${tmp}/memory.png \
  -a ${tmp}/fds.png \
  [email protected]

And with a scheduler like sleepto you can easily automate this script to run every day or once a week.
