# NETGEAR switch metrics scrapper

## About

this is a foolish attempt to get metrics out of a managed netgear switch. I have tested it with my `GS108Ev3`.

> [!CAUTION]

> there is **no guarantee** that this will work with your switch.

Since netgear does not provide an API it basically is webscraping from the port-monitor page. The scraper logs itself in and uses the returned cookie to continue scraping.

## Known bugs

this whole construct is super fragile, sometimes the switch doesn't play nice and you get "banned" for around 5 minutes. it often continues.

## Usage

the scraper expects two ENV variables:

| Key       | Value                                               |

| --------- | --------------------------------------------------- |

| REMOTE_IP | this is the IP of the switch                        |

| PASSWORD  | the password used to authenticate against the webUI |

| PORT      | the hostPort the scraper should listen on           |

| LOCATION  | where your switch is physically located             |

the prometheus endpoint is at `:/metrics`.

## Finally

No guarantees, no warranty, no nothing. You are on your own.

If you have suggestions I'm happy for pull requests. It may take a super long time till I respond. Please don't file issues, I do this in my spare time. Feel free to fork :)
