Export Prometheus metrics from SQL queries
==========================================

|Latest Version| |Build Status| |PyPI Downloads| |Docker Pulls|

``query-exporter`` is a Prometheus_ exporter which allows collecting metrics
from database queries, at specified time intervals.

It uses SQLAlchemy_ to connect to different database engines, including
PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server.

Each query can be run on multiple databases, and update multiple metrics.

The application is simply run as::

  query-exporter

which will look for a ``config.yaml`` configuration file in the current
directory, containing the definitions of the databases to connect and queries
to perform to update metrics.  The configuration file can be overridden by
passing the ``--config`` option (or setting the ``QE_CONFIG`` environment
variable).  The option can be provided multiple times to pass partial
configuration files, the resulting configuration will be the merge of the
content of each top-level section (``databases``, ``metrics``, ``queries``).

A sample configuration file for the application looks like this:

.. code:: yaml

    databases:
      db1:
        dsn: sqlite://
        connect-sql:
          - PRAGMA application_id = 123
          - PRAGMA auto_vacuum = 1
        labels:
          region: us1
          app: app1
      db2:
        dsn: sqlite://
        labels:
          region: us2
          app: app1

    metrics:
      metric1:
        type: gauge
        description: A sample gauge
      metric2:
        type: summary
        description: A sample summary
        labels: [l1, l2]
        expiration: 24h
      metric3:
        type: histogram
        description: A sample histogram
        buckets: [10, 20, 50, 100, 1000]
      metric4:
        type: enum
        description: A sample enum
        states: [foo, bar, baz]

    queries:
      query1:
        interval: 5
        databases: [db1]
        metrics: [metric1]
        sql: SELECT random() / 1000000000000000 AS metric1
      query2:
        interval: 20
        timeout: 0.5
        databases: [db1, db2]
        metrics: [metric2, metric3]
        sql: |
          SELECT abs(random() / 1000000000000000) AS metric2,
                 abs(random() / 10000000000000000) AS metric3,
                 "value1" AS l1,
                 "value2" AS l2
      query3:
        schedule: "*/5 * * * *"
        databases: [db2]
        metrics: [metric3, metric4]
        sql: |
          SELECT value FROM (
            SELECT "foo" AS metric4 UNION
            SELECT "bar" AS metric3 UNION
            SELECT "baz" AS metric4
          )
          ORDER BY random()
          LIMIT 1


See the `configuration file format`_ documentation for complete details on
available configuration options.


Exporter options
----------------

The exporter provides the following options, that can be set via command-line
switches, environment variables or through the ``.env`` file:

.. table::

  +-------------------------+------------------------+-----------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------+


Metrics endpoint
----------------

The exporter listens on port ``9560`` providing the standard ``/metrics``
endpoint.

By default, the port is bound on ``localhost``. Note that if the name resolves
both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, the exporter will bind on both.


Builtin metrics
---------------

The exporter provides a few builtin metrics which can be useful to track query execution:

``database_errors{database="db"}``:
  a counter used to report number of errors, per database.

``queries{database="db",query="q",status="[success|error|timeout]"}``:
  a counter with number of executed queries, per database, query and status.

``query_interval{query="q"}``:
  a gauge reporting the configured execution interval in seconds, if set, per query.

``query_latency{database="db",query="q"}``:
  a histogram with query latencies, per database and query.

``query_timestamp{database="db",query="q"}``:
  a gauge with query last execution timestamps, per database and query.

In addition, metrics for resources usage for the exporter process can be
included by passing ``--process-stats`` in the command line.


Database engines
----------------

SQLAlchemy_ doesn't depend on specific Python database modules at
installation. This means additional modules might need to be installed for
engines in use. These can be installed as follows::

  pip install SQLAlchemy[postgresql] SQLAlchemy[mysql] ...

based on which database engines are needed.

See `supported databases`_ for details.


Run in Docker
=============

``query-exporter`` can be run inside Docker_ containers, and is available from
the `Docker Hub`_::

  docker run --rm -it -p 9560:9560/tcp -v "$CONFIG_DIR:/config" adonato/query-exporter:latest

where ``$CONFIG_DIR`` is the absolute path of a directory containing a
``config.yaml`` file, the configuration file to use. Alternatively, a volume
name can be specified.

If a ``.env`` file is present in the specified volume for ``/config``, its
content is loaded and applied to the environment for the exporter. The location
of the dotenv file can be customized by setting the ``QE_DOTENV`` environment
variable.

The image has support for connecting the following databases:

- PostgreSQL (``postgresql://``)
- MySQL (``mysql://``)
- SQLite (``sqlite://``)
- Microsoft SQL Server (``mssql+pymssql://``)
- IBM DB2 (``db2://``) (on x86_64 architecture)
- Oracle (``oracle+oracledb://``)
- ClickHouse (``clickhouse+native://``)
- Teradata (``teradatasql://``)

A `Helm chart`_ to run the container in Kubernetes is also available.

Automated builds from the ``main`` branch are available on the `GitHub container registry`_ via::

  docker pull ghcr.io/albertodonato/query-exporter:main

**NOTE**: GHCR images are periodically cleaned up and shouldn't be used for production purposes.

They're mainly meant for testing unreleased features, e.g. from the ``main``
branch or pull requests.


Base image
-------------

A base image is also available, containing only ``query-exporter`` and no
additional database drivers. This can be used as a base image for installing only desired drivers, e.g.:

.. code:: dockerfile

   FROM adonato/query-exporter:<version>-base

   apt-get install <my database driver>
   ...
