prom-confluence-exporter's Issues

Add attachments space total metric

Licence expiry support

This exporter doesn't seem to support a days until license expires metric, unlike the jira exporter. Is it possible to add this?

/Alan

Add conf_total_sessions_gauge (Sessions count)

Can you add new metric conf_total_sessions_gauge as it in jira exporter jira_total_sessions_gauge

High Cardinality Metrics

Hi @AndreyVMarkelov, we're running into issues with high cardinality of unbounded metrics like the confluence_user_login_count, confluence_user_logout_count, and confluence_user_failed_login_count metrics which have the username and ip as labels. We have ~7,000 active Confluence users so this causes a huge influx of unique time-series.

The Prometheus devs recommend against this practice for labels.

CAUTION: Remember that every unique combination of key-value label pairs represents a new time series, which can dramatically increase the amount of data stored. Do not use labels to store dimensions with high cardinality (many different label values), such as user IDs, email addresses, or other unbounded sets of values.

https://prometheus.io/docs/practices/naming/

Instead, could there be an aggregate counter, such as confluence_user_login_total, confluence_user_logout_total, and confluence_user_failed_login_total? This would follow some of the Prometheus best-practices like using total as the suffix for an accumulating count.

Example

From:

confluence_user_login_count{username="usera",ip="10.0.0.1",} 1.0
confluence_user_login_count{username="userb",ip="10.0.0.2",} 20.0

To:

confluence_user_login_total 30.0

Atlassian Marketplace entry gone?

Hi @AndreyVMarkelov,

We're currently using your plugin in our server instance of the Atlassian products and it appears that the Marketplace entry is gone (https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1218015/prometheus-exporter-for-confluence/). Did you stop with the development of the plugins or do you plan to continue with the development?

Add total pages and blogposts metrics

Add support for Confluence 7.1.x

Hi, I really like your plugins. Could you please add support for the latest version of Confluence:

https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/confluence-7-1-release-notes-976776964.html

Thanks!

Add license metrics

Could you please add license metrics such as:

• current number of users
• maximum number of users
• number of days before maintenance expiry

Add atlassian-marketing-plugin.xml

See, https://developer.atlassian.com/platform/marketplace/creating-a-server-app-package/

The important gauges are zero.

In my test environment, I got zero gauges, even there are pages and blog and login users:

Wiki edit

Hello,

Please edit the wiki a bit.

Update for Confluence 7.0.1 planned?

@AndreyVMarkelov Just out of interest: Are there any updates planned for Confluence 7.0.1?

Query with reverse proxy

I tried to configure it with a confluence server instance, which has HAProxy infront of it for ssl-termination. Is this supported?
It seems, from the access logs, that the domain name gets converted to a IP and then queried.

I have a ACL based on domain name and it the query ends with
https-in/ -1/-1/-1/-1/1 503 213

Add metrics from SystemInformationService

See, com.atlassian.confluence.status.service.SystemInformationService

no main manifest for most recent versions

I am trying to set this up on my home setup and getting the following with version 1.0.19 and 1.0.20

web01 prometheus]$ java -jar /opt/monitoring/prometheus/prom-confluence-exporter-1.0.19.jar 
no main manifest attribute, in /opt/monitoring/prometheus/prom-confluence-exporter-1.0.19.jar

web01 prometheus]$ java -jar /opt/monitoring/prometheus/prom-confluence-exporter-1.0.20.jar 
no main manifest attribute, in /opt/monitoring/prometheus/prom-confluence-exporter-1.0.20.jar

I am using CentOS 8 with java-1.8.0-openjdk installed. Am I doing something wrong?
