Question - how to understand/debug verify issue about exporter_exporter

[tcolgate]

I've seen some mention of the JMX exporter and OpenMetrics (the prom expfmt parser actually doesn't support OpenMetrics, it's an outstanding feature request).
One possible approach to debugging, though a bit rubbish, would be to put this text into a file, then use the recent support for file plugins.

FWIW, with the current build, if I put your data into a file called data.txt, and use this config

modules:
  data:
    method: file
    file:
      path: data.txt

I can then read the metrics with /proxy?module=data. It could be that there has been a recent fix for this?

I'll try that out! I'm using 0.5.0 but did have to build from source due to an issue w/ glibc that I couldn't quite figure out, so that might be a confounding variable.

Thanks for the suggestion :)
