freeswitch_exporter

FreeSWITCH Exporter for Prometheus

A FreeSWITCH exporter for Prometheus.

It communicates with FreeSWITCH using mod_event_socket.

Add metrics as below:

1. sofia gateway status
2. module status
3. bridged_calls
4. current_channels
5. detailed_calls
6. endpoint
7. codec
8. api memory
9. registration details

Add feature:

1. web.config support tls, authorization and etc.

configuration exporter web.config visit: https://prometheus.io/docs/guides/basic-auth/

Getting Started

Pre-built static binaries are available in releases.

To run it:

./freeswitch_exporter [flags]

Help on flags:

./freeswitch_exporter --help
usage: freeswitch_exporter [<flags>]

Flags:
      --help                   Show context-sensitive help.
  -l, --web.listen-address=":9282"
                               Address to listen on for web interface and telemetry.
      --web.telemetry-path="/metrics"
                               Path under which to expose metrics.
  -u, --freeswitch.scrape-uri="tcp://localhost:8021"
                               URI on which to scrape freeswitch. E.g.
                               "tcp://localhost:8021"
  -t, --freeswitch.timeout=5s  Timeout for trying to get stats from freeswitch.
  -P, --freeswitch.password="ClueCon"
                               Password for freeswitch event socket.
      --web.config=""          [EXPERIMENTAL] Path to config yaml file that can
                               enable TLS or authentication.
      --version                Show application version.

Usage

Make sure mod_event_socket is enabled on your FreeSWITCH instance. The default mod_event_socket configuration binds to :: (i.e., to listen to connections from any host), which will work on IPv4 or IPv6.

You can specify the scrape URI with the --freeswitch.scrape-uri flag. Example:

./freeswitch_exporter -u "tcp://localhost:8021"

Also, you need to make sure that the exporter will be allowed by the ACL (if any), and that the password matches.

Multi-Target Exporter

This exporter also supports the multi-target pattern. This means that instead of configuring Prometheus to hit this exporters /metrics endpoint, you would configure it to hit /probe instead, like the example Prometheus config below:

scrape_configs:
  - job_name: freeswitch
    scrape_interval: 15s
    static_configs:
      - targets:
        - 10.0.0.1:8021 # Note you do need to include the port
        - tcp://10.0.0.2:8021 # tcp:// is injected for you if the value does not start with it
    metrics_path: /probe
    relabel_configs: # This relabeling sets the instance to the target address instead of the address of the exporter
      - source_labels: [__address__]
        target_label: __param_target
      - source_labels: [__param_target]
        target_label: instance
      - target_label: __address__
        replacement: localhost:9282

What this does is tell's Prometheus to do the following for each item in static_configs.targets:

curl http://localhost:9282/probe?target=10.0.0.1:8021

Then the exporter does what it would normally do and scrapes the target for metrics.

Using this method can help make it a bit easier depending on the size of the platform your monitoring. For example, this could allow you to utilize Prometheus' discovery plugins.

Metrics

The exporter will try to fetch values from the following commands:

• api show calls count: Calls count
• api uptime s: Uptime
• api strepoch: Time synced with system
• status
• sofia xmlstatus gateway: fetch all gateway
• module: usage module.conf.xml fetch all module status
• api show endpoint all used endpoint
• api show codec all used codec
• registration all sofia registration details
• api memory get freeswitch memory info
