Prometheus Observability Provider

The Prometheus Observability provider manages the collection of various metrics for Tegola's various subsystems.

The connection between Tegola and Prometheus is configured in the config file (tegola.toml.) An example of minimum configuration :

[observer]
type = "prometheus"

The metrics will be exposed on the /metrics end point.

Configuration Properties

• type (string): [Required] the type of the observer, must be "prometheus".
• variables (array of strings): [Optional] A set of tokens that should be replaced in the url for HTTP or additional labels for cache providers. Currently, supported tokens are:
  • :map_name [Default]
  • :layer_name [Default]
  • :z [Default]
  • :x
  • :y
• push_url (string) : [Optional] To push to a Prometheus Gateway, set the push_url to the gateway's URL. Note: this should only be used for ephemeral jobs, such as tegola cache seed or tegola cache pruge commands.
• push_cadence (int) : [Optional] How often to push to the Prometheus Gateway. Defaults to 10 secs. Use a zero or less to only push at the end of the process.

Metrics exposed

tegola build info

tegola_build_info

A gauge with build information from the running command

Labels

• branch - if set, the git branch of this built binary
• revision - the git short revision number
• version - the set version number
• command - the running command
• tags - the build tags that were used to build the Tegola Binary

Use this in conjunction with other command to compare metrics across versions of the application.
