Hey, not sure if this works, but have you tried prefix with ""
?
I did try! Quotes result in an error
[2022-10-12 18:55:29] relay.conf:13:17: empty string
[2022-10-12 18:55:29] prefix with ""
ok, there's two ways I can think of:
statistics prefix with .;
or a bit more convoluted
statistics prefix with somethingrandom; rewrite ^somethingrandom\.(.*) into \1;
But I hope the first works for you, because then you can use the "send to".
Is there any insight as to why .
would work? A simple test shows the following internal stats
.dispatcher1.metricsReceived 0 1665602450
.dispatcher1.metricsBlackholed 0 1665602450
.dispatcher1.metricsDiscarded 0 1665602450
.dispatcher1.wallTime_us 7 1665602450
I'm leaning a bit more into the rewrite option, but haven't tested it out yet
I had hoped that the metrics would be sanitised, hence the .
. I think with current code, you can't do it other than with a rewrite rule. If that is too limited, I'll have to add some syntax to allow you to have no prefix.
I did some finagling and found that the following configuration
statistics
# Every 10 seconds is required
submit every 10 seconds
prefix with foo
;
rewrite ^foo\.(.*) into \1;
match *
send to forwarder
stop
;
works. I don't see an issue with this approach, do you have any feedback? The "every 10 seconds" rule is important.
Nope, this should do it just fine.
Thanks for your help! I appreciate the feedback and quick response.
Is there a way to disable prefixing with the statistics construct?
When I created my own
statistics
construct, I expected it to override the default configuration provided by carbon-c-relay.But I end up with the configuration on boot
