}Expand description
Contains values and metadata that collectd has collected from plugins
Fields§
§values: Vec<ValueReport<'a>>§plugin: &'a strThe plugin that submitted this value. This would be your PluginManager when submitting
values
plugin_instance: Option<&'a str>Distinguishes entities that yield metrics. Each core would be a different instance of the same plugin, as each core reports “idle”, “user”, “system” metrics.
type_: &'a strThis is the string found in types.db, determines how many values are expected and how they should be interpreted
type_instance: Option<&'a str>The type instance is used to separate values of identical type which nonetheless belong to one another. For instance, even though “free”, “used”, and “total” all have types of “Memory” they are different type instances.
host: &'a strThe hostname where the values were collectd
time: DateTime<Utc>The timestamp at which the value was collected
interval: DurationThe interval in which new values are to be expected
meta: HashMap<String, MetaValue>Metadata associated to the reported values
Implementations§
Source§impl<'a> ValueList<'a>
impl<'a> ValueList<'a>
Sourcepub fn rates(&self) -> Result<Cow<'_, Vec<ValueReport<'a>>>, CacheRateError>
pub fn rates(&self) -> Result<Cow<'_, Vec<ValueReport<'a>>>, CacheRateError>
Collectd does not automatically convert Derived values into a rate. This is why many
write plugins have a StoreRates config option so that these rates are calculated on
demand from collectd’s internal cache. This function will return a vector that can supercede
the values field that contains the rate of all non-gauge values. Values that are gauges
remain unchanged, so one doesn’t need to resort back to values field as this function
will return everything prepped for submission.
