Prometheus Remote Write

An input plugin to ingest payloads of Prometheus remote write

This input plugin allows you to ingest a payload in the Prometheus remote-write format, i.e. a remote write sender can transmit data to Fluent Bit.

Configuration

Key

Description

default

A sample config file to get started will look something like the following:

[INPUT]
    name prometheus_remote_write
    listen 127.0.0.1
    port 8080
    uri /api/prom/push

[OUTPUT]
    name stdout
    match *

pipeline:
    inputs:
        - name: prometheus_remote_write
          listen: 127.0.0.1
          port: 8080
          uri: /api/prom/push
    outputs:
        - name: stdout
          match: '*'

With the above configuration, Fluent Bit will listen on port 8080 for data. You can now send payloads in Prometheus remote write format to the endpoint /api/prom/push.

Examples

Communicate with TLS

Prometheus Remote Write input plugin supports TLS/SSL, for more details about the properties available and general configuration, please refer to the TLS/SSL section.

Communicating with TLS, you will need to use the tls related parameters:

[INPUT]
    Name prometheus_remote_write
    Listen 127.0.0.1
    Port 8080
    Uri /api/prom/push
    Tls On
    tls.crt_file /path/to/certificate.crt
    tls.key_file /path/to/certificate.key

Now, you should be able to send data over TLS to the remote write input.
