Application to check WAN connection and export metrics to Prometheus

Raspberry Pi 5 Wan Bot Exporter

Raspberry Pi Prometheus exporter. Works in Docker or as a standalone script to export data to Prometheus. It uses python's internal webserver. Supports Raspberry Pi 5 and Raspbian-based images. Currently, exports:

• Ping to 8.8.8.8 and packet loss computed from 3 packages.
• Upload, Download and latency to Bredbandskollen using bbk-cli

Requirements

• Python 3.x
• (optional) Docker

Usage

Docker

It is recommended to build the image locally to ensure that it is compatible with you platform.

docker build -t rpi5_wanBot_exporter -t registry.gitlab.com/niklasme/wanbot:latest.

To bring up the container without mounted volumes for reading fan speed ant temperature sensors.

docker run -d -p 8878:8878 --name rpi5_wanBot_exporter rpi5_wanBot_exporter

Docker compose

You can also use Docker compose to simplify the process by placing the following content in the docker-compose.yaml file and also add the required links to the files containing the fan speed and cpu temperature. If the container fail to start, ensure that it is compatible with your platform; i.e. amd64 aarch64 etc.

services:
  rpi5_wanBfot_exporter:
    image: registry.gitlab.com/niklasme/wanbot:latest
    container_name: rpi5_wanBot_exporter
    ports:
     - 8878:8878
    volumes:
      - /sys/devices/platform/cooling_fan/hwmon/:/sensors/hwmon:ro
      - /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp:/sensors/temp:ro

Bring up the container after building it with docker compose up. The additional -d is to run in detached mode as a service.

docker build -t rpi5_wanBot_exporter .
docker compose up -d

Standalone

• clone this repository or download the script to your Raspberry Pi 5
• run the exporter python3 rpi5_wanBot_exporter.py --webserver --port 8878

Integration with Prometheus:

To integrate with Prometheus, add the following job to your Prometheus configuration file (prometheus.yml):

scrape_configs:
  - job_name: 'rpi5_wanBot_exporter'
    static_configs:
      - targets: ['<Raspberry_Pi_IP>:8878']
