lmesz / connection_exporter

Connection exporter

• The aim of this small exporter is to collect socket statistics based on the outgoing port.

• The generated format is the following.

  connection_metric{port="58112",state="ESTABLISHED"} 1
  connection_metric{port="8080",state="TIME_WAIT"} 1
  

  It means there are 1 established connection towards 58112 which is in ESTABLISHED state and there is 1 connection towards 8080 which is in TIME_WAIT state.

ToDo

• tests
• debug log
• extract Collect to separate functions
• better naming of variables
