When you'd like **to collect metrics from an external Prometheus server**, you need to expose service metrics outside of the container network.
The playbook provides a single endpoint (`https://matrix.DOMAIN/metrics/*`), under which various services may expose their metrics (e.g. `/metrics/node-exporter`, `/metrics/postgres-exporter`, `/metrics/hookshot`, etc). To enable this `/metrics/*` feature, use `matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_metrics_enabled`. To protect access using [Basic Authentication](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication), see `matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_metrics_basic_auth_enabled` below.
The playbook provides a single endpoint (`https://matrix.DOMAIN/metrics/*`), under which various services may expose their metrics (e.g. `/metrics/node-exporter`, `/metrics/postgres-exporter`, `/metrics/hookshot`, etc). To expose all services on this `/metrics/*` feature, use `matrix_metrics_exposure_enabled`. To protect access using [Basic Authentication](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication), see `matrix_metrics_exposure_http_basic_auth_enabled` and `matrix_metrics_exposure_http_basic_auth_users` below.
When using `matrix_metrics_exposure_enabled`, you don't need to expose metrics for individual services one by one.
The following variables may be of interest:
Name | Description
-----|----------
`matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_metrics_enabled`|Set this to `true` to enable metrics exposure for various services on `https://matrix.DOMAIN/metrics/*`. Refer to the individual `matrix_SERVICE_metrics_proxying_enabled` variables below for exposing metrics for each individual service.
`matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_metrics_basic_auth_enabled`|Set this to `true` to protect all `https://matrix.DOMAIN/metrics/*` endpoints with [Basic Authentication](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication) (see the other variables below for supplying the actual credentials). When enabled, all endpoints beneath `/metrics` will be protected with the same credentials
`matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_metrics_basic_auth_username`|Set this to the Basic Authentication username you'd like to protect `/metrics/*` with. You also need to set `matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_metrics_basic_auth_password`. If one username/password pair is not enough, you can leave the `username` and `password` variables unset and use `matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_metrics_basic_auth_raw_content` instead
`matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_metrics_basic_auth_password`|Set this to the Basic Authentication password you'd like to protect `/metrics/*` with
`matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_metrics_basic_auth_raw_content`|Set this to the Basic Authentication credentials (raw `htpasswd` file content) used to protect `/metrics/*`. This htpasswd-file needs to be generated with the `htpasswd` tool and can include multiple username/password pairs. If you only need one credential, use `matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_metrics_basic_auth_username` and `matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_metrics_basic_auth_password` instead.
`matrix_metrics_exposure_enabled`|Set this to `true` to **enable metrics exposure for all services** on `https://matrix.DOMAIN/metrics/*`. If you think this is too much, refer to the helpful (but nonexhaustive) list of individual `matrix_SERVICE_metrics_proxying_enabled` variables below for exposing metrics on a per-service basis.
`matrix_metrics_exposure_http_basic_auth_enabled`|Set this to `true` to protect all `https://matrix.DOMAIN/metrics/*` endpoints with [Basic Authentication](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication) (see the other variables below for supplying the actual credentials). When enabled, all endpoints beneath `/metrics` will be protected with the same credentials
`matrix_metrics_exposure_http_basic_auth_users`|Set this to the Basic Authentication credentials (raw `htpasswd` file content) used to protect `/metrics/*`. This htpasswd-file needs to be generated with the `htpasswd` tool and can include multiple username/password pairs.
`matrix_synapse_metrics_enabled`|Set this to `true` to make Synapse expose metrics (locally, on the container network)
`matrix_synapse_metrics_proxying_enabled`|Set this to `true` to expose Synapse's metrics on `https://matrix.DOMAIN/metrics/synapse/main-process` and `https://matrix.DOMAIN/metrics/synapse/worker/TYPE-ID` (only takes effect if `matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_metrics_enabled: true`). Read [below](#collecting-synapse-worker-metrics-to-an-external-prometheus-server) if you're running a Synapse worker setup (`matrix_synapse_workers_enabled: true`).
`matrix_synapse_metrics_proxying_enabled`|Set this to `true` to expose Synapse's metrics on `https://matrix.DOMAIN/metrics/synapse/main-process` and `https://matrix.DOMAIN/metrics/synapse/worker/TYPE-ID`. Read [below](#collecting-synapse-worker-metrics-to-an-external-prometheus-server) if you're running a Synapse worker setup (`matrix_synapse_workers_enabled: true`). To password-protect the metrics, see `matrix_metrics_exposure_http_basic_auth_users` above.
`prometheus_node_exporter_enabled`|Set this to `true` to enable the node (general system stats) exporter (locally, on the container network)
`matrix_prometheus_services_proxy_connect_prometheus_node_exporter_metrics_proxying_enabled`|Set this to `true` to expose the node (general system stats) metrics on `https://matrix.DOMAIN/metrics/node-exporter` (only takes effect if `matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_metrics_enabled: true`)
`matrix_prometheus_services_proxy_connect_prometheus_node_exporter_metrics_proxying_enabled`|Set this to `true` to expose the node (general system stats) metrics on `https://matrix.DOMAIN/metrics/node-exporter`. To password-protect the metrics, see `matrix_metrics_exposure_http_basic_auth_users` above.
`prometheus_postgres_exporter_enabled`|Set this to `true` to enable the [Postgres exporter](configuring-playbook-prometheus-postgres.md) (locally, on the container network)
`matrix_prometheus_nginxlog_exporter_enabled`|Set this to `true` to enable the [NGINX Log exporter](configuring-playbook-prometheus-nginxlog.md) (locally, on the container network)
`matrix_prometheus_services_proxy_connect_prometheus_postgres_exporter_metrics_proxying_enabled`|Set this to `true` to expose the [Postgres exporter](configuring-playbook-prometheus-postgres.md) metrics on `https://matrix.DOMAIN/metrics/postgres-exporter` (only takes effect if `matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_metrics_enabled: true`)
`matrix_prometheus_services_proxy_connect_prometheus_postgres_exporter_metrics_proxying_enabled`|Set this to `true` to expose the [Postgres exporter](configuring-playbook-prometheus-postgres.md) metrics on `https://matrix.DOMAIN/metrics/postgres-exporter`. To password-protect the metrics, see `matrix_metrics_exposure_http_basic_auth_users` above.
`matrix_bridge_hookshot_metrics_enabled`|Set this to `true` to make [Hookshot](configuring-playbook-bridge-hookshot.md) expose metrics (locally, on the container network)
`matrix_bridge_hookshot_metrics_proxying_enabled`|Set this to `true` to expose the [Hookshot](configuring-playbook-bridge-hookshot.md) metrics on `https://matrix.DOMAIN/metrics/hookshot` (only takes effect if `matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_metrics_enabled: true`)
`matrix_SERVICE_metrics_proxying_enabled`|Various other services/roles may provide similar `_metrics_enabled` and `_metrics_proxying_enabled` variables for exposing their metrics. Refer to each role for details. Only takes effect if `matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_metrics_enabled: true`
`matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_metrics_additional_user_location_configuration_blocks`|Add nginx `location` blocks to this list if you'd like to expose additional exporters manually (see below)
`matrix_bridge_hookshot_metrics_proxying_enabled`|Set this to `true` to expose the [Hookshot](configuring-playbook-bridge-hookshot.md) metrics on `https://matrix.DOMAIN/metrics/hookshot`. To password-protect the metrics, see `matrix_metrics_exposure_http_basic_auth_users` above.
`matrix_SERVICE_metrics_proxying_enabled`|Various other services/roles may provide similar `_metrics_enabled` and `_metrics_proxying_enabled` variables for exposing their metrics. Refer to each role for details. To password-protect the metrics, see `matrix_metrics_exposure_http_basic_auth_users` above or `matrix_SERVICE_container_labels_metrics_middleware_basic_auth_enabled`/`matrix_SERVICE_container_labels_metrics_middleware_basic_auth_users` variables provided by each role.
`matrix_media_repo_metrics_enabled`|Set this to `true` to make media-repo expose metrics (locally, on the container network)
Example for how to make use of `matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_metrics_additional_user_location_configuration_blocks` for exposing additional metrics locations:
```nginx
matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_metrics_additional_user_location_configuration_blocks:
- 'location /metrics/another-service {
resolver 127.0.0.11 valid=5s;
proxy_pass http://matrix-another-service:9100/metrics;
}'
```
Using `matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_metrics_additional_user_location_configuration_blocks` only takes effect if `matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_metrics_enabled: true` (see above).
Note : The playbook will hash the basic_auth password for you on setup. Thus, you need to give the plain-text version of the password as a variable.
### Collecting Synapse worker metrics to an external Prometheus server
If you are using workers (`matrix_synapse_workers_enabled: true`) and have enabled `matrix_synapse_metrics_proxying_enabled` as described above, the playbook will also automatically expose all Synapse worker threads' metrics to `https://matrix.DOMAIN/metrics/synapse/worker/ID`, where `ID` corresponds to the worker `id` as exemplified in `matrix_synapse_workers_enabled_list`.
