Installation

From PyPI (soon)

sudo -H pip install disk_usage_exporter

From source

1. Install build package

python -m pip install build

2. Build package

python -m build

3. Install package

VERSION=0.0.1
sudo -H pip install dist/disk_usage_exporter-$VERSION-py3-none-any.whl

Usage

disk_usage_exporter [-h] [--port PORT] [--search-root SEARCH_ROOT] [--max-depth MAX_DEPTH] [-d] [-v]

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --port PORT           specify metrics port
  --search-root SEARCH_ROOT
                        specify the directory that will be used to search for subdirectories to analyze
  -d, --debug           enable debug logs
  -v, --version         show program's version number and exit

Prometheus configuration

1. Add a new job to Prometheus configuration: /etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml

...
scrape_configs:
  - job_name: "disk_usage_exporter"
    static_configs:
      - targets: ["localhost:8100"] 

2. Restart Prometheus:

PROMETHEUS_HOST=localhost
PROMETHEUS_PORT=9091
curl -XPOST $PROMETHEUS_HOST:$PROMETHEUS_PORT/-/reload

Systemd unit

1. Create a file named /etc/systemd/system/disk_usage_exporter.service and include the following:

[Unit]
Description=disk_usage_exporter service

[Service]
ExecStart=disk_usage_exporter

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

2. Reload the service files to include a new service:

sudo systemctl daemon-reload

3. Start service:

sudo systemctl start disk_usage_exporter

ToDo:

• Add --host option
• Add --max-depth option
• Make getting values asynchronous
• Make project structure similar to other prometheus exporters
• Add informative logging messages
• Add CI with linter
• Add tests
• Add name for python process
