umackereld, which stands for "micro mackerel daemon," is a small Mackerel agent replacement written for OpenWrt-based embedded Linux systems.
umackereld depends on the following libraries:
libuboxlibubuslibucilibjson-clibcurlcompiled with a TLS support (only tested withmbedtls)
and the following platform components:
netifdubusd
In order to run umackereld on a standard Chaos Calmer system, you need to install libcurl and ca-certificates packages with opkg.
For cross-compiling umackereld for your OpenWrt system, you have to prepare OpenWrt Buildroot (or OpenWrt SDK will do, meybe).
Make sure all the libraries listed in the Dependency section is built for your target system.
TODO: Write a friendly howto here...
Something as follows should work (replace "mips" with your favorite architecture).
export PATH=/path/to/buildroot/staging_dir/host/bin:/path/to/buildroot/staging_dir/toolchain-mips_foo_gcc-bar_uClibc-baz/bin:$PATH
autoreconf --install
./configure --host=mips-openwrt-linux STAGING_DIR=/path/to/buildroot/staging_dir/target-mips_foo_uClibc-baz
make
umackereld uses UCI configuration system and by default reads the file at /etc/config/mackerel.
Only mackerel.apikey option is mandatory.
# Global configuration
config mackerel
# Your API key, issued by mackerel.io (mandatory)
option apikey 'YOUR_API_KEY'
# Hostname is by default obtained from the kernel. You can override it.
option hostname 'override.hostname.localdomain'
# Custom metrics (any number of sections allowed)
config metric
# The command must output lines in the format: "<name>\t<value>\t<time>\n"
# The command string is passed to `sh -c`, so be careful to the shell-sensitive characters.
option command '/path/to/your/metrics/command.sh'
