# telegraf-docker
## Why
Provides a telegraf docker image with added tools for monitoring disks, sensors and IPMI.
This exists because the base telegraf Docker image makes it difficult to monitor some system metrics.
See [this issue](https://github.com/influxdata/influxdata-docker/issues/563) for more info about those difficulties.
## What
Re-creates the official [Telegraf docker container](https://hub.docker.com/_/telegraf) with the following tools added:
- `smartctl` (smartmontools)
- `ipmitool`
- `nvme-cli`
- `sensors` (lm-sensors)
- `mtr` (mtr-tiny)
- `sudo`
**In addition to sudo being installed,
[sudoers entries](https://github.com/golift/telegraf-docker/blob/main/Dockerfile#L6-L8)
are added for `smartctl`, `ipmitool` and `nvme`.**
## How
Built automatically by DockerHub Cloud.
[Use the following repository](https://hub.docker.com/repository/registry.docker.io/golift/telegraf/tags).
```
docker pull golift/telegraf
```
**This is a Docker Open Source Sposnsored project, so it has no pull limits.**
## When
The renovate automatically merges pull request with a new Telegraf Docker manifest when a new Telegraf version is released.
This auto-merge to the `main` branch triggers Docker Cloud to re-build this image.
This should always be up to date with the `latest` tag of `telegraf` on Dockerhub.
The built manifest supports the same 3 architectures as the original image.

## Problems
It's always the `latest` tag. This makes pinning a version difficult. One day [renovate will support adding repo tags](https://github.com/renovatebot/renovate/issues/2928), which will allow Docker to build different manifest tags. If you want to pin a specific version, you should use the sha256 [shown on docker hub](https://hub.docker.com/repository/registry.docker.io/golift/telegraf/tags).
