Modules are a way to create Grafana Alloy configurations which can be loaded as a component. Modules are a great way to parameterize a configuration to create reusable pipelines.
Create a folder for the module under the ./modules directory in the appropriate category. Each module must have a README.md that provides the following information:
- Components
- Brief description
- Applicable Alloy versions
- Declare arguments and exports
- Example
Whenever a new module is submitted and a pull request is merged to the main branch, a tag is automatically created and published, by default this is a patch bump.
Modules can be reference directly from this git repository using the import.git or import.http components. It is recommended to always reference a tagged version, and not the main branch.
