NAME

6       Munin::Plugin::Pgsql - Base module for PostgreSQL plugins for Munin
7

SYNOPSIS

9       The Munin::Plugin::Pgsql module provides base functionality for all
10       PostgreSQL Munin plugins, including common configuration parameters.
11

CONFIGURATION

13       All configuration is done through environment variables.
14

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

16       All plugins based on Munin::Plugin::Pgsql accepts all the environment
17       variables that libpq does. The most common ones used are:
18
19        PGHOST      hostname to connect to, or path to Unix socket
20        PGPORT      port number to connect to
21        PGUSER      username to connect as
22        PGPASSWORD  password to connect with, if a password is required
23
24       The plugins will by default connect to the 'template1' database, except
25       for wildcard per-database plugins. This can be overridden using the
26       PGDATABASE variable, but this is usually a bad idea.
27
28       If you are using plugin for several postgres instances, you can
29       customize graph title with the environment variable PGLABEL.
30
31       Warning and critical can be customized by setting "warning" and
32       "critical" env variables per plugin.
33
34   Example
35        [postgres_*]
36           user postgres
37           env.PGUSER postgres
38           env.PGPORT 5433
39
40         [postgres_connections_ALL]
41           env.warning :450
42           env.critical :500
43

WILDCARD MATCHING

45       Wildcard plugins based on this module will match on whatever type of
46       object specifies for a filter, usually a database. If the object name
47       ALL is used (for example, a symlink to postgres_connections_ALL), the
48       filter will not be applied, and the plugin behaves like a non-wildcard
49       one.
50

REQUIREMENTS

52       The module requires DBD::Pg to work.
53

TODO

55       Support for using psql instead of DBD::Pg, to remove dependency.
56

BUGS

58       No known bugs at this point.

API DOCUMENTATION

75       The following functions are available to plugins using this module.
76
77   Initialization
78        use Munin::Plugin::Pgsql;
79        my $pg = Munin::Plugin::Pgsql->new(
80           parameter=>value,
81           parameter=>value
82        );
83
84       Parameters
85
86        minversion     Minimum PostgreSQL version required, formatted like 8.2. If the
87                       database is an older version than this, the plugin will exit
88                       with an error.
89        category       The category for this plugin. Copied directly to the config
90                       output. Default 'PostgreSQL'.
91        title          The title for this plugin. Copied directly to the config output.
92        info           The info for this plugin. Copied directly to the config output.
93        vlabel         The vertical label for the graph. Copied directly to the config
94                       output.
95        basename       For wildcard plugins, this is the base name of the plugin,
96                       including the trailing underscore.
97        basequery      SQL query run to get the plugin values. The query should return
98                       two columns, one being the name of the counter and the second
99                       being the current value for the counter.
100        pivotquery     Set to 1 to indicate that the query in basequery returns a single
101                       row, with one field for each counter. The name of the counter is
102                       taken from the returned column name, and the value from the
103                       first row in the result.
104        configquery    SQL query run to generate the configuration information for the
105                       plugin. The query should return at least two columns, which are
106                       the name of the counter and the label of the counter. If
107                       a third column is present, it will be used as the info
108                       parameter.
109        suggestquery   SQL query to run to generate the list of suggestions for a
110                       wildcard plugin. Don't forget to include ALL if the plugin
111                       supports aggregate statistics.
112        autoconfquery  SQL query to run as the last step of "autoconf", to determine
113                       if the plugin should be run on this machine. Must return a single
114                       row, two columns columns. The first one is a boolean field
115                       representing yes or no, the second one a reason for "no".
116        warning        The warning low and/or high thresholds.
117        critical       The critical low and/or high thresholds.
118        graphdraw      The draw parameter for the graph. The default is LINE1.
119        graphtype      The type parameter for the graph. The default is GAUGE.
120        graphperiod    The period for the graph. Copied directly to the config output.
121        graphmin       The min parameter for the graph. The default is no minimum.
122        graphmax       The max parameter for the graph. The default is no maximum.
123        stack          If set to 1, all counters except the first one will be written
124                       with a draw type of STACK.
125        base           Used for graph_args --base. Default is 1000, set to 1024 when
126                       returning sizes in Kb for example.
127        wildcardfilter The SQL to substitute for when a wildcard plugin is run against
128                       a specific entity, for example a database. All occurrences of
129                       the string %%FILTER%% will be replaced with this string, and
130                       for each occurrence a parameter with the value of the filtering
131                       condition will be added to the DBI statement.
132        paramdatabase  Makes the plugin connect to the database in the first parameter
133                       (wildcard plugins only) instead of 'template1'.
134        defaultdb      Makes the plugin connect to the database specified in this
135                       parameter instead of 'template1'.
136        extraconfig    This string is copied directly into the configuration output
137                       when the plugin is run in config mode, allowing low-level
138                       customization.
139        postprocess    A function that's called with the result of the base query,
140                       and can post-process the result and return a new resultset.
141        postconfig     A function that's called with the result of the config query,
142                       and can post-process the result and return a new resultset.
143        postautoconf   A function that's called with the result of the autoconf query,
144                       and can post-process the result and return a new resultset.
145        postsuggest    A function that's called with the result of the suggest query,
146                       and can post-process the result and return a new resultset.
147
148       Specifying queries
149
150       Queries specified in one of the parameters above can take one of two
151       forms.  The easiest one is a simple string, which will then always be
152       executed, regardless of server version. The other form is an array,
153       looking like this:
154        [
155         "SELECT 'default',... FROM ...",
156         [
157           "8.3", "SELECT 'query for 8.3 or earlier',... FROM ...",
158           "8.1", "SELECT 'query for 8.1 or earlier',... FROM ..."
159         ]
160        ] This array is parsed from top to bottom, so the entries must be in
161       order of version number. The *last* value found where the version
162       specified is higher than or equal to the version of the server will be
163       used (yes, it counts backwards).
164
165   Processing
166        $pg->Process();
167
168        This command executes the plugin. It will automatically parse the ARGV array
169        for commands given by Munin.
