The description for |
Introduce the Prometheus metrics exporter as a new standalone binary within the repository. - Create gpbackup_exporter.go entry point with CLI flags and collection loop. - Port core exporter logic to the new `exporter/` package. - Adapt type system to use `*history.BackupConfig` directly, aligning with the cloudberry-backup architecture. - Switch receiver methods to standalone gpbckpconfig helpers. - Add Prometheus and Kingpin dependencies to `go.mod`. - Update Makefile to support building, testing, and packaging. - Port unit tests to Ginkgo/Gomega.
Add e2e test that runs gpbackup commands and validates that gpbackup_exporter correctly reads history database and exposes metrics. Also remove dead gpbackmanPath assignment from useOldBackupVersion in e2e tests. And suppress noisy test logger output by writing to bytes.Buffer instead of os.Stdout in exporter unit tests.
SIGINT means "interrupt," signaling a user wants to stop the current operation. SIGTERM means "terminate," requesting a polite program shutdown. So' it's correct to consider as graceful shutdown
To prevent a panic with an error like "panic: http: invalid pattern", exit in case of an empty endpoint.
Remove unused getDataSuccessStatus. Clarify include/exclude handling: * DB present in both dbInclude and dbExclude - warn and emit gpbackup_exporter_status=0. * DB only in dbExclude - skip, emit no metrics. * dbInclude empty or DB in dbInclude - process and emit full backup metrics. Add unit tests.

Hi @MisterRaindrop @woblerr could you see this PR again? I saw some errors returned in the unit tests. Thanks! |
This aligns the test with the recent behavior change in commit 1035fb8. `OpenHistoryDB()` now fails fast on missing files during the open stage, rather than failing later during the first SQL query.

Failed test is fixed. Thanks |

Added
gpbackup_exporter- a Prometheus exporter for collecting metrics from the gpbackup history database (gpbackup_history.db).It is based on the original gpbackup_exporter project and has been adapted for integration into the cloudberry-backup repository.
Motivation
gpbackup does not expose built-in Prometheus metrics.
gpbackup_exporterfills this gap. This allows integrating backup health monitoring into existing Prometheus/Grafana stacks.Features
gpbackup_exporterexposes the following Prometheus metrics:Backup metrics:
gpbackup_backup_status— backup status (success / failure);gpbackup_backup_deletion_status— backup deletion status;gpbackup_backup_info— backup info (version, compression, plugin, etc.);gpbackup_backup_duration_seconds— backup duration in seconds.Last backup metrics:
gpbackup_backup_since_last_completion_seconds— seconds elapsed since the last completed backup per database and backup type.Exporter self-metrics:
gpbackup_exporter_status— gpbackup exporter get data status;gpbackup_exporter_build_info— information about gpbackup exporter.Filtering flags:
--gpbackup.db-include/--gpbackup.db-exclude— limit collection to specific databases;--gpbackup.backup-type— limit collection to a specific backup type;--gpbackup.collect-deleted/--gpbackup.collect-failed— include deleted / failed backups;--collect.depth— collect metrics only for backups not older than N days;--web.config.file— TLS and basic authentication support via the Prometheus exporter toolkit.Verification
Unit tests pass without errors:
Open Questions
The exporter uses
promslogfor logging, which outputs inlogfmtorjsonformat — the standard for Prometheus exporters. Other tools in this repository usegplogfromcloudberry-go-libs. Shouldgpbackup_exporterbe migrated togplogfor consistency, or is it acceptable to keep the Prometheus logger?The exporter's
Makefiletargets use additional-ldflags(GIT_REVISION,GIT_BRANCH,BUILD_DATE) injected intogithub.com/prometheus/common/version. This is required by the Prometheus exporter convention to populategpbackup_exporter_build_infometric. Other tools in the repo use a simpler single-X version=...flag pattern. Is this acceptable?Related links
