* middleware/metrics: survive restart Keep the handler running during restart. Stopping and starting the handler results in "address in use" - sometimes, meaning the reload will be flaky. In turn this behavior means any changes to the monitor stanza are not picked up. * remove resync

# prometheus
|
|
|
|
This module enables prometheus metrics for CoreDNS. The default location for the metrics is
|
|
`localhost:9153`. The metrics path is fixed to `/metrics`.
|
|
|
|
The following metrics are exported:
|
|
|
|
* coredns_dns_request_count_total{zone, proto, family}
|
|
* coredns_dns_request_duration_milliseconds{zone}
|
|
* coredns_dns_request_size_bytes{zone, proto}
|
|
* coredns_dns_request_do_count_total{zone}
|
|
* coredns_dns_request_type_count_total{zone, type}
|
|
* coredns_dns_response_size_bytes{zone, proto}
|
|
* coredns_dns_response_rcode_count_total{zone, rcode}
|
|
|
|
Each counter has a label `zone` which is the zonename used for the request/response.
|
|
|
|
Extra labels used are:
|
|
|
|
* `proto` which holds the transport of the response ("udp" or "tcp")
|
|
* The address family (`family`) of the transport (1 = IP (IP version 4), 2 = IP6 (IP version 6)).
|
|
* `type` which holds the query type. It holds most common types (A, AAAA, MX, SOA, CNAME, PTR, TXT,
|
|
NS, SRV, DS, DNSKEY, RRSIG, NSEC, NSEC3, IXFR, AXFR and ANY) and "other" which lumps together all
|
|
other types.
|
|
* The `response_rcode_count_total` has an extra label `rcode` which holds the rcode of the response.
|
|
|
|
If monitoring is enabled, queries that do not enter the middleware chain are exported under the fake
|
|
name "dropped" (without a closing dot - this is never a valid domain name).

|
## Syntax
|
|
|
|
~~~
|
|
prometheus [ADDRESS]
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
For each zone that you want to see metrics for.
|
|
|
|
It optionally takes an address to which the metrics are exported; the default
|
|
is `localhost:9153`. The metrics path is fixed to `/metrics`.
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
Use an alternative address:
|
|
|
|
~~~
|
|
prometheus localhost:9253
|
|

# Bugs
|
|
|
|
When reloading, we keep the handler running, meaning that any changes to the handler aren't picked
|
|
up. You'll need to restart CoreDNS for that to happen.
