Nginx Exporter for Prometheus

This is a simple server that periodically scrapes nginx stats and exports them via HTTP for Prometheus consumption.

To run it:

./nginx_exporter [flags]

Help on flags:

./nginx_exporter --help

Use a Config File:

./nginx_exporter -c ./config.json

{
	"listening_address": "127.0.0.1:9100",
	"metrics_endpoint": "/metrics",
	"nginx_scrape_uri": "http://127.0.0.1:8080/nginx_status",
	"insecure": true
}
