This receiver can fetch stats from a NGINX instance using the ngx_http_stub_status_module module's status endpoint.

Configuration

NGINX Module

You must configure NGINX to expose status information by editing the NGINX configuration. Please see ngx_http_stub_status_module for a guide to configuring the NGINX stats module ngx_http_stub_status_module.

Receiver Config

The following settings are required:

  • endpoint (default: http://localhost:80/status): The URL of the NGINX status endpoint

The following settings are optional:

  • collection_interval (default = 10s): This receiver collects metrics on an interval. This value must be a string readable by Golang's time.ParseDuration. Valid time units are ns, us (or µs), ms, s, m, h.

  • initial_delay (default = 1s): defines how long this receiver waits before starting.

Example:

receivers:
  nginx:
    endpoint: "http://localhost:80/status"
    collection_interval: 10s

The full list of settings exposed for this receiver are documented here with detailed sample configurations here.
