Prometheus exporter for several chia node statistics

Last update: Sep 19, 2022

Overview

prometheus-chia-exporter

Prometheus exporter for several chia node statistics It's assumed that the full node, the harvester and the wallet run on the same system.

Requirements

The exporter is meant to be run from your chia-blockchain venv. Additionally you need prometheus-client as specified in requirements.txt

cd chia-blockchain
. ./activate
cd ../prometheus-chia-exporter
pip install -r requirements.txt

Installation

Copy the needed files to their locations as described below

# Copy the systemd unit file
sudo cp systemd/chia_exporter.service /etc/systemd/system
# Edit the unit file to have correct chia blockchain path and username
# Copy the environment file
sudo cp systemd/chia_exporter.env /etc/default/
# If the node you want to monitor does not run on the same host as the exporter, edit the env file
# copy the exporter to /usr/local/bin/
sudo cp prometheus-chia-exporter/chia-exporter.py /usr/local/bin/
# Reload systemd to have access to the new service
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
# Make sure the service is started on system boot
sudo systemctl enable chia_exporter
# Start the service
sudo systemctl start chia_exporter

Custom config

You can monitor remote nodes by editing /etc/default/chia_exporter.env and changing the settings there

Usage

Start the systemd service Import grafana/dashboard.json to your grafana The exporter will listen on port 9824 Add prometheus config

scrape_configs:
  - job_name: 'chia'
    static_configs:
      - targets: ['nodeip:9824']

Overriding hostnames

If you are running the full node on a different host or container, you can override the hostnames used for connecting to the daemons by setting one or all of the following environment variables: FULL_NODE_HOST, WALLET_HOST, HARVESTER_HOST, FARMER_HOST. All hostnames default to localhost.

Updating

To update just copy the chia-exporter.py file to /usr/local/bin/chia-exporter.py again and restart the service sodo systemctl restart chia_exporter

Comments

Grafana dashboard does not displace correct data for farmer and pool addresses
The prometheus exporter shows this:

# HELP chia_reward_address_info Farming rewards go to this address # TYPE chia_reward_address_info gauge chia_reward_address_info{farmer_target="<redacted>",pool_target="<redacted>"} 1.0

but the grafana dashboard shows the 1.0 rather than the label values? I think this is an issue in the Grafana dashboard JSON?

"self_hostname" referenced but not used?

The README.md mentions a "self_hostname" in the exporter but this string is not in the exporter? Am I missing something?

Also, "sudo not sudp" in one spot in the README.

README does not inform user to place chai_exporter in /usr/local/bin/

The systemd service file expects the chai_exporter.py to be in /usr/local/bin in the chia venv but there is no instruction to do this in the README. Update README to include this step.

Request a default port for the chai-exporter

The port used for chia_exporter is currently 8000 which I do not think is a safe port. Instead update the default Prometheus port wiki to allocate a new port for this exporter and then update the port used by the exporter.

Allow overriding hostnames via ENV
Hey, thanks for creating this! I'm running chia in a docker container and would like to run this in a separate container, so I modified the code a bit to allow overriding the default hostname to something set by the environment. A quick test showed that this would work by using something like this, for example:

docker run --rm \ --network chia-node_chia-node \ -e FULL_NODE_HOST=chia \ -e WALLET_HOST=chia \ -e HARVESTER_HOST=chia \ -e FARMER_HOST=chia \ -v <somewhere>/chia/home/:/root/.chia/:ro \ -p 12345:8000 \ strayer/chia-exporter-test

I didn't add any environment for the RPC ports, since the config will need to be included anyway for the certificates and whatever else the Python chia library needs.

On restart the exporter reports 0 for all values

On restart the exporter reports 0 for all values for almost 30-50 seconds. This messes up the metrics display in grafana.

The exporter should report either no metrics at all or null values for all metrics

Add support for multiple harvesters/farmers in Grafana dashboard and prometheus scrape config

Right now we can run the chia-exporter on multiple machines but there is no example prometheus or Grafana code to either view the data on each machine or add up stats (like plots) across all machines. Can we look at adding this?

Releases(v0.0.1)

v0.0.1(May 12, 2021)

This is the initial release to setup for better visibility in the future. WARNING The listen port changed from 8000 to 9824. This will create new metrics and your dashboard will look broken. Sorry for that. But now the port is official and not likely to be changed any more
