| # prometheus
 | |
| 
 | |
| *prometheus* enables [Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/) metrics.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 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}` - total query count.
 | |
| * `coredns_dns_request_duration_seconds{zone}` - duration to process each query.
 | |
| * `coredns_dns_request_size_bytes{zone, proto}` - size of the request in bytes.
 | |
| * `coredns_dns_request_do_count_total{zone}` -  queries that have the DO bit set
 | |
| * `coredns_dns_request_type_count_total{zone, type}` - counter of queries per zone and type.
 | |
| * `coredns_dns_response_size_bytes{zone, proto}` - response size in bytes.
 | |
| * `coredns_dns_response_rcode_count_total{zone, rcode}` - response per zone and 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 plugin 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:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ~~~ corefile
 | |
| . {
 | |
|     prometheus localhost:9253
 | |
| }
 | |
| ~~~
 | |
| 
 | |
| Or via an enviroment variable (this is supported throughout the Corefile): `export PORT=9253`, and
 | |
| then:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ~~~ corefile
 | |
| . {
 | |
|     prometheus localhost:{$PORT}
 | |
| }
 | |
| ~~~
 | |
| 
 | |
| # Bugs
 | |
| 
 | |
| When reloading, we keep the handler running, meaning that any changes to the handler's address
 | |
| aren't picked up. You'll need to restart CoreDNS for that to happen.
