How to install
1. Install telegraf
– https://portal.influxdata.com/downloads/
2. Save the folsom.conf to /etc/telegraf/telegraf.d/
# folsom.conf
[[outputs.http]]
url = "https://us-central1-folsom-260913.cloudfunctions.net/folsom_publish_metric"
insecure_skip_verify = true
data_format = "json"
[outputs.http.headers]
Content-Type = "application/json"
X-Client-Id = "YOUR CLLIENT ID"
# Read metrics about network interface usage
[[inputs.net]]
# Monitor process cpu and memory usage
[[inputs.procstat]]
pattern = ".*"
[[inputs.tail]]
## files to tail.
## These accept standard unix glob matching rules, but with the addition of
## ** as a "super asterisk". ie:
## "/var/log/**.log" -> recursively find all .log files in /var/log3. Check if required input plugins are enabled
– See Required input plugins
4. Disable the outputs.influxdb on a default configuration file(/etc/telegraf/telegraf.conf)
# [[outputs.influxdb]]5. Restart the telegraf service
Required input plugins
- mem, processes, swap, system, cpu, disk, diskio, kernel
- enabled on a default configuration file
- net, procstat, tail
- required for supporting folsom

## By default, telegraf will gather stats for all devices including

## On systems which support it, device metadata can be added in the form of
## tags.
## Currently only Linux is supported via udev properties. You can view
## available properties for a device by running:
## 'udevadm info -q property -n /dev/sda'
## Note: Most, but not all, udev properties can be accessed this way. Properties
## that are currently inaccessible include DEVTYPE, DEVNAME, and DEVPATH.
# device_tags = ["ID_FS_TYPE", "ID_FS_USAGE"]
#
## Using the same metadata source as device_tags, you can also customize the
## name of the device via templates.
## The 'name_templates' parameter is a list of templates to try and apply to
## the device. The template may contain variables in the form of '$PROPERTY' or
## '${PROPERTY}'. The first template which does not contain any variables not
## present for the device is used as the device name tag.
## The typical use case is for LVM volumes, to get the VG/LV name instead of
## the near-meaningless DM-0 name.
