Prometheus Exporter for pg-promise

A prometheus exporter exposing metrics for pg-promise.

Available Metrics

As the exporter is utilizing the node-postgres-prometheus-exporter for the majority of the connection and pool usage metrics, please check the documentation for the list of metrics.

In addition the exporter provides the following metrics.

|Metric Name|Description|Labels|Since| |---|---|---|---| |pg_command_duration_seconds_bucket|Duration of the executed command in seconds|host: The host of the databasedatabase: The database namecommand: Name of the commandstatus: SUCCESS or ERROR|2.0.0| |pg_command_duration_seconds_sum|The cumulated duration of the executed command in seconds|host: The host of the databasedatabase: The database namecommand: Name of the commandstatus: SUCCESS or ERROR|2.0.0| |pg_command_duration_seconds_count|Number of executed commands|host: The host of the databasedatabase: The database namecommand: Name of the commandstatus: SUCCESS or ERROR|2.0.0| |pg_task_duration_seconds_bucket|Duration of the executed task in seconds|host: The host of the databasedatabase: The database nametask: The tag as provided when executing the task.

Usage

Add Dependency

Add the following dependency to your project to download the package from npm.

npm i @christiangalsterer/pg-promise-prometheus-exporter

TypeScript

The following example illustrates how to use the exporter to enable monitoring for the pg-promise.

import pgPromise, { type IInitOptions, type IMain } from 'pg-promise'
import { Registry, collectDefaultMetrics } from 'prom-client'
import { monitorPgPromise } from '@christiangalsterer/pg-promise-prometheus-exporter'

...

// set up pg-promise
const initOptions: IInitOptions = {/* initialization options */}
const pgp: IMain = pgPromise(initOptions)
const database: any = pgp(/* the connection parameter is either a configuration object or a connection string */)


// set up the prometheus client
const register = new Registry();
collectDefaultMetrics({ register })

// monitor pg-promise
monitorPgPromise(database, initOptions, register)

...

// connect to PostgreSQL *after* calling monitorPgPromise

JavaScript

The following example illustrates how to use the exporter to enable monitoring for pg-promise.

const promClient = require( 'prom-client');
const pgPromiseExporter = require('@christiangalsterer/pg-promise-prometheus-exporter')

// set up pg-promise
const initOptions = {/* initialization options */};
const pgp = require('pg-promise')(initOptions);
const database = pgp(/* the connection parameter is either a configuration object or a connection string */)

// set up the prometheus client
const collectDefaultMetrics = promClient.collectDefaultMetrics;
const Registry = promClient.Registry;
const register = new Registry();
collectDefaultMetrics({ register });

// monitor pg-promise
pgPromiseExporter.monitorPgPromise(database, initOptions, register)

// connect to Postgres *after* calling monitorPgPromise

Configuration

The exporter can be configured via properties specified on the optional parameter of type PgPromiseExporterOptions.

PgPromiseExporterOptions

|property|Description|Example|Since | |---|---|---|---| | defaultLabels | Default labels added to each metrics. | {'foo':'bar', 'alice': 3} | 1.0.0 |

Event Handling

If there are already event handler registered for the events provided by pg-promise, the library will preserve the defined event handlers when the initOptions are initialized.

Grafana Dashboard

An example dashboard for Grafana is available here displaying the provided metrics by the exporter.

Here an example for pg-promise client metrics:

Here an example for pg-promise pool metrics:

Here an example for pg-promise command metrics:

Here an example for pg-promise task metrics:

Here an example for pg-promise transaction metrics:

Changelog

The changes to project can be found in the changelog.

The following table list the compatibility of exporter versions with different pg-promise and prom-client versions.

|Exporter Version|pg-promise Version|prom-client version| |---|---|---| |^1.0.0|^11.5.0|^15.0.0|
