miner_exporter

Prometheus exporter for the Helium miner (validator). Using prometheus_client, this code exposes metrics from the helium miner to a prometheus compatible server.

This is only the exporter, which still requires a prometheus server for data and grafana for the dashboard. Prometheus and Grafana servers can run on an external machine, the same machine as the miner, or possibly using a cloud service. The helium_miner_grafana_dashboard can be imported to Grafana.

Note port 9825 is the 'reserved' port for this specific exporter. Feel free to use whatever you like, of course, but you won't be able to dial 9VAL on your phone.

Running via Docker

Using the docker file, you can run this with Docker or docker-compose! Both of these expose Prometheus on 9825, feel free to choose your own port. The images are hosted on both GHCR and Dockerhub.

Docker client

docker run -p 9825:9825 --name miner_exporter -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock ghcr.io/tedder/miner_exporter:latest

Docker-Compose

Using your existing docker-compose file, add the section for the exporter (below). When you're done, run docker-compose up -d as usual. That's it!

version: "3"
services:
  validator:
    image: quay.io/team-helium/validator:latest-val-amd64
    container_name: validator
...
  miner_exporter:
    image: ghcr.io/tedder/miner_exporter:latest
    container_name: miner_exporter
    volumes:
    - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
    ports:
    - "9825:9825"

Running locally

On the miner machine:

install python3

pip install prometheus_client psutil docker

Configuration

The following have valid defaults, but you can change them:

UPDATE_PERIOD  # seconds between scrapes, int
VALIDATOR_CONTAINER_NAME # eg 'validator', string
API_BASE_URL # URL for api access, string. For testnet, set to "https://testnet-api.helium.wtf/v1"
ENABLE_RPC # opt in to using the RPC API with a truthy value (defaults to falsey value until `exec` calls are fully replaced).
