Thanks for this nice project! I wonder what's the difference to the offiical node-exporter which also exports smart metrics ? Could you please explain in the README.md why you wrote this given node-exporter already supports smart metrics, and what would be the difference ?

I'm not the original author but I've been using this project for a while.

This project has been abandon for some time but I will publish a new release soon. I can't promise I will keep with more updates in the future.
As far as I know there is not official S.M.A.R.T exporter => https://github.com/prometheus/node_exporter/issues/782
The Prometheus community has an exporter but I didn't test it. When I set up my infrastructure long time ago I couldn't find that project => https://github.com/prometheus-community/smartctl_exporter
Another new exporter => https://github.com/PhilipMay/smart-prom-next

Update: Release v2.0.0 is out => https://github.com/matusnovak/prometheus-smartctl/releases/tag/v2.0.0

@PhilipMay @matusnovak FYI
