README

        
This provides a OSGi bundle that has a component shipping Dropwizard metrics out to InfluxDb over http to be used in

Grafana.

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/ieb/influxdb-reporter-osgi.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/ieb/influxdb-reporter-osgi)

# Quick Setup for the impatient

If you dont have a Grafana InfluxDB instanlled somewhere, you will need one to collect the data.

    # On Ubuntu

    apt-get install influxdb grafana-data grafana

    

    

    

    # On OSX with brew installed

    brew install influxdb

    # edit /usr/local/etc/influxdb.conf to enable the admin UI for influx DB

    brew services start influxdb

    brew install grafana

    brew services start grafana

    

    

Then go to http://localhost:8083  create a database (eg metrics) and a user in that database (eg aemuser) with password

Then go to http://localhost:3000 login with admin admin, set the admin passwor and connect Grafana to the InfluxDB instnace (add a datasource)

Then configure some dashboards.

Install the bundle, configure the bundle (see below) and use.

# OSGi Properties for org.apache.sling.influxdb.CodehaleMetricsReporter

## host (default: 127.0.0.1)

The host where InfluxDB is running.

## port (default: 8086)

Port where InfluxDB is running.

## secure (default:false)

If true https is used, otherwise http

## username (default: none)

The username to connect to InfluxDB with. This should be a non admin user dedicated to this purpose.

## password (default: none)

The password for the user in InfluxDB. This password will get stored plain text in the OSGi configuration so dont use

a valuable user.

## db (default: metrics)

The name of the Influx DB

# InfluxDB and Grafana as Docker containers

    docker run --rm influxdb influxd config > influxdb.conf

    # edit the influxdb file to your liking, then start and instance mapping the DB to /var/lib/influxdb

    docker run -p 8086:8086  -p 8083:8083     -v /root/influxdb/influxdb.conf:/etc/influxdb/influxdb.conf:ro -v /var/lib/influxdb:/var/lib/influxdb influxdb -config /etc/influxdb/influxdb.conf

    docker run -d  -p 3000:3000 grafana/grafana

    

Then configure influxdb as before using the public IP. Grafana will also connect over the public IP, authenticated. 

It will be advisable to filter by IP on the Grafana and InfluxDB instances. The InfluxDB can run over https. ie, secure

the endpoints.
