Multi-target support (BETA)

This exporter supports the multi-target pattern. This allows running a single instance of this exporter for multiple uWSGI targets.

To use the multi-target functionality, send an http request to the endpoint /probe?target=http://uwsgi1.example.com:5432 where target is set to the URI of the uWSGI instance to scrape metrics from.

On the prometheus side you can set a scrape config as follows

Please note that only http, https, and tcp targets are supported (file and unix targets are disabled for security reasons).

scrape_configs:
  - job_name: uwsgi # To get metrics about the mysql exporter’s targets
    static_configs:
      - targets:
        # All uwsgi hostnames to monitor.
        - http://uwsgi1.example.com:5432
        - http://uwsgi2.example.com:5432
    relabel_configs:
      - source_labels: [__address__]
        target_label: __param_target
      - source_labels: [__param_target]
        target_label: instance
      - target_label: __address__
        # The uwsgi_exporter host:port
        replacement: localhost:9117

Flags

Name Description
stats.uri required URI for accessing uwsgi stats (currently supports: "http", "https", "unix", "tcp").
stats.timeout Timeout for trying to get stats from uwsgi. (deprecated)

TLS and basic authentication

The uWSGI Exporter supports TLS and basic authentication.

To use TLS and/or basic authentication, you need to pass a configuration file using the --web.config.file parameter. The format of the file is described in the exporter-toolkit repository.

Using Docker

You can deploy this exporter using the Docker image from following registry:

For example:

docker pull timonwong/uwsgi-exporter

docker run -d -p 9117:9117 timonwong/uwsgi-exporter --stats.uri localhost:8001

(uWSGI Stats Server port, 8001 in this example, is configured in ini uWSGI configuration files)
