Example Playbook

Here's an example playbook using influxdb stats as an input and influxdb as an output.

- hosts: utility
  vars_files:
    - vars/main.yml
  roles:
    - jamescarr.telegraf
      telegraf_render_config: true
      plugins:
        outputs:
          influxdb:
            urls:
              - 'http://localhost:8086'
            database: telegraf
            precision: s
            retention_policy: default
            write_consistency: any
            timeout: 5s
        inputs:
          influxdb:
            urls: ['http://localhost:8086/debug/vars']

This role also includes a module that you can use to add standalone input/output configurations that are rendered under /etc/telegraf/conf.d

- name: Add file input
  telegraf_config:
  name: mcrouter
  plugins:
    input:
      tail:
        name_prefix: mcrouter_log
        from_beginning: true
        data_format: value
        data_type: string
        files:
          - /var/log/mcrouter/mcrouter.log

You can also specify a template for the config file if needed.

- name: Add file input
  telegraf_config:
  name: mcrouter
  template: mcrouter.conf.j2

TODO: More examples using various inputs.

ansible-role-telegraf's Issues

Telegraf test should be optional

If a telegraf input depends on the existence of a service (e.g. zookeeper), the test fails:

TASK [jamescarr.telegraf : verify generated telegraf config] *******************
fatal: [zookeeper]: FAILED! => {"changed": true, "cmd": "/usr/bin/telegraf -config /etc/telegraf/telegraf.conf -test", "delta": "0:00:00.022639", "end": "2016-09-08 10:45:30.549514", "failed": true, "rc": 1, "start": "2016-09-08 10:45:30.526875", "stderr": "dial tcp 127.0.0.1:2181: getsockopt: connection refused\n2016/09/08 10:45:30 dial tcp 127.0.0.1:2181: getsockopt: connection refused", "stdout": "* Plugin: zookeeper, Collection 1", "stdout_lines": ["* Plugin: zookeeper, Collection 1"], "warnings": []}

This makes it impossible to use this role for such inputs.

telegraf config rendering fails if the entry has no attributes

Using ubuntu 16.04. Ansible 2.2.
While rendering the telegraf.conf the following fails:

plugins:
  outputs:
    influxdb:
      urls: ['{{influxdb_host_url}}']
      database: "telegraf"
      username: "telegraf"
      password: "{{ influxdb_telegraf_password }}"
  inputs:
    # Read metrics about cpu usage
    cpu:
      percpu: true
      totalcpu: true
      collect_cpu_time: false
   diskio:
   kernel:

Gets 'not iterable' error
The following works ok

plugins:
  outputs:
    influxdb:
      urls: ['{{influxdb_host_url}}']
      database: "telegraf"
      username: "telegraf"
      password: "{{ influxdb_telegraf_password }}"
  inputs:
    # Read metrics about cpu usage
    cpu:
      percpu: true
      totalcpu: true
      collect_cpu_time: false
   #diskio:
   #kernel:

Do I need to add a dummy attribute, or [] or something?
