ubuntu/telegraf repository overview

⁠Telegraf™ software | Ubuntu

Current Telegraf™ software Docker Image from Canonical⁠, based on Ubuntu. Receives security updates and tracks the newest combination of Telegraf™ software and Ubuntu. This repository is free to use and exempted from per-user rate limits.

⁠About Telegraf™ software

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. Read more on the Telegraf website⁠.

⁠Tags and Architectures

Up to 5 years free security maintenance on LTS channels.

Up to 10 years customer security maintenance from canonical/telegraf. Request access⁠.

Tags in italics are not available in ubuntu/telegraf but are shown here for completeness.

Channel Tag shows the most stable channel for that track. A track is a combination of both the application version and the underlying Ubuntu series, eg 1.0-22.04. Channels are ordered from the most stable to the least stable, candidate, beta, edge. More risky channels are always implicitly available. So if beta is listed, you can also pull edge. If candidate is listed, you can pull beta and edge. When stable is listed, all four are available. Images are guaranteed to progress through the sequence edge, beta, candidate before stable.

⁠Testing/Debugging

To debug the container:

docker logs -f telegraf-container

To get an interactive shell:

docker exec -it telegraf-container /bin/bash

⁠Deploy with Kubernetes

Works with any Kubernetes; if you don't have one, we recommend you install MicroK8s⁠ and microk8s.enable dns storage then snap alias microk8s.kubectl kubectl.

Download telegraf.conf⁠ and telegraf-deployment.yml⁠ and set containers.telegraf.image in telegraf-deployment.yml to your chosen channel tag (e.g. ubuntu/telegraf:1.21-22.04_beta), then:

kubectl create configmap telegraf-config --from-file=main-config=telegraf.conf
kubectl apply -f telegraf-deployment.yml

You will now be able to connect to the Telegraf server on localhost:30073.
