NAME

       telegraf - The plugin-driven server agent for collecting and reporting metrics

SYNOPSIS

       telegraf --help

       telegraf [commands | flags]

DESCRIPTION

       Telegraf is an agent for collecting, processing, aggregating, and writing metrics.

       Design  goals  are  to  have  a  minimal  memory  footprint  with  a plugin system so that
       developers in the community can easily add support for collecting metrics.

OPTIONS

       version
              print the version to stdout

       config print out full sample configuration to stdout

       --aggregator-filter <filter>
              filter the aggregators to enable, separator is :

       --config <file>
              configuration file to load

       --config-directory <directory>
              directory containing additional *.conf files

       --plugin-directory
              directory containing *.so files, this directory will be searched  recursively.  Any
              Plugin found will be loaded and namespaced.

       --debug
              turn on debug logging

       --input-filter <filter>
              filter the inputs to enable, separator is :

       --input-list
              print available input plugins.

       --output-filter <filter>
              filter the outputs to enable, separator is :

       --output-list
              print available output plugins.

       --pidfile <file>
              file to write our pid to

       --pprof-addr <address>
              pprof address to listen on, don't activate pprof if empty

       --processor-filter <filter>
              filter the processors to enable, separator is :

       --quiet
              run in quiet mode

       --section-filter

              'global_tags', 'outputs', 'processors', 'aggregators' and 'inputs'

       --sample-config
              print out full sample configuration

       --test gather metrics, print them out, and exit; processors, aggregators, and outputs  are
              not run

       --test-wait
              wait up to this many seconds for service inputs to complete in test mode

       --usage <plugin>
              print usage for a plugin, ie, telegraf --usage mysql

       --version
              display the version and exit

EXAMPLES

          # generate a telegraf config file:
          telegraf config > telegraf.conf

          # generate config with only cpu input & influxdb output plugins defined
          telegraf --input-filter cpu --output-filter influxdb config

          # run a single telegraf collection, outputting metrics to stdout
          telegraf --config telegraf.conf --test

          # run telegraf with all plugins defined in config file
          telegraf --config telegraf.conf

          # run telegraf, enabling the cpu & memory input, and influxdb output plugins
          telegraf --config telegraf.conf --input-filter cpu:mem --output-filter influxdb

          # run telegraf with pprof
          telegraf --config telegraf.conf --pprof-addr localhost:6060
