Need to have memory stats

[vipin5050]

it would be nice to have memory stats as I see some times rundeck container or system runs out of memory and there is no way to find out what was the stat . you can get current stats from rundeck UI but not from exporter

but in exporter there is no indication

python_gc_objects_collected_total{generation="0"} 232.0 python_gc_objects_collected_total{generation="1"} 2250.0 python_gc_objects_collected_total{generation="2"} 29712.0 python_gc_objects_uncollectable_total{generation="0"} 0.0 python_gc_objects_uncollectable_total{generation="1"} 0.0 python_gc_objects_uncollectable_total{generation="2"} 0.0 python_gc_collections_total{generation="0"} 11913.0 python_gc_collections_total{generation="1"} 1083.0 python_gc_collections_total{generation="2"} 97.0 python_info{implementation="CPython",major="3",minor="7",patchlevel="9",version="3.7.9"} 1.0 process_virtual_memory_bytes 3.57736448e+09 process_resident_memory_bytes 4.17480704e+08 process_start_time_seconds 1.61720609141e+09 process_cpu_seconds_total 2900.8199999999997 process_open_fds 381.0 process_max_fds 1024.0

I see it was there in 2.0.0, not sure why it was removed, you can make it optional and let user choose if they want or not.

On early versions, the rundeck_exporter wasn't part of the oficial Prometheus page, so I had to make many fixes proposed by the Prometheus curators and one o then was remove data about system info. As they suggested, if you need system info, you need to use the node_exporter.

but the issue with node exporter is it does not get JVM stats for rundeck container and there is no way you can install node exporter in container where JVM stats for rundeck container is very specific to rundeck only. So I dont think node exporter is a solution.

I did understand your point!
Think that I can put options to show the cpu and memory stats.

Thanks, and also when you are going to build new version with the fix then can you add --version option to check which version of exporter you are running. Since I have multiple version on my system and getting lost which one is which. ;-)
I guess I can rename but it would be nice i can do some thing like

#rundeck_exporter --version

and it prints github location and release number or at least release number.

@vipin5050
New version has the following new options: --rundeck.cpu.stats, --rundeck.memory.stats and --version

Thanks @phsmith, its good now, you can close the issue
