A rust binary to that will poll weather readings for multiple locations and publish the metrics in prometheus exposition format.
Currently, no binaries or container images are being built. The only way to install it is via
``` cargo install openweathermap_exporter ````
See the docs.rs site for an example of an owm_exporter.yaml config file to configure the exporter. Alternatively, use the owm_exporter-template.yaml file inthe git repo as a starting point for creating your own config file.
Once you have a valid owm_exporter.yaml or owm_exporter.json file in the CWD or ~/ directories, you can run with the the logging level specified in the RUST_LOG environment variable.
RUST_LOG=info cargo run
Control of the loggin level is implemented via the env_logger crate). Valid log levels are
errorwarninfodebugtraceIf the RUST_LOG environment variable is not defined. The process will be pretty quiet unless the config file is malformed.
All metrics returned by the free v2.5 API will be exported for scraping. At the moment any route will suffice to load the metrics. If you have not changed the default listen options you can test the your running instance with
curl http://localhost:9001/
Metrics all include the unit of the measurement being exported. If you change the setting for owm.units in your config file, the names of the metrics might change accordingly.
