An Ansible role to install, configure, and manage Telegraf, the plugin-driven server agent for reporting metrics into InfluxDB.
Prior knowledge/experience with InfluxDB and Telegraf is highly recommended. Full documentation is available here.
Either clone this repository, or install through Ansible Galaxy directly using the command:
ansible-galaxy install rossmcdonald.telegraf
The high-level variables are stored in the defaults/main.yml file. The most important ones being:
# Channel of Telegraf to install (currently only 'stable' is supported)
telegraf_install_version: stable
More advanced configuration options are stored in the vars/main.yml file, which includes all of the necessary bells and whistles to tweak your configuration.
No other Ansible dependencies are required. This role was tested and developed with Ansible 2.2.0.
We're using test-kitchen, and circleci. See .circleci/config.yml for details
Tests can be performed locally as well:
bundle install
kitchen test
