# Redis Input Plugin

The Redis input plugin gathers metrics from one or many Redis servers.

## Global configuration options <!-- @/docs/includes/plugin_config.md -->

In addition to the plugin-specific configuration settings, plugins support
additional global and plugin configuration settings. These settings are used to
modify metrics, tags, and field or create aliases and configure ordering, etc.
See the [CONFIGURATION.md][CONFIGURATION.md] for more details.

[CONFIGURATION.md]: ../../../docs/CONFIGURATION.md

## Configuration

```toml @sample.conf
# Read metrics from one or many redis servers
[[inputs.redis]]
  ## specify servers via a url matching:
  ##  [protocol://][:password]@address[:port]
  ##  e.g.
  ##    tcp://localhost:6379
  ##    tcp://:password@192.168.99.100
  ##    unix:///var/run/redis.sock
  ##
  ## If no servers are specified, then localhost is used as the host.
  ## If no port is specified, 6379 is used
  servers = ["tcp://localhost:6379"]

  ## Optional. Specify redis commands to retrieve values
  # [[inputs.redis.commands]]
  #   # The command to run where each argument is a separate element
  #   command = ["get", "sample-key"]
  #   # The field to store the result in
  #   field = "sample-key-value"
  #   # The type of the result
  #   # Can be "string", "integer", or "float"
  #   type = "string"

  ## specify server password
  # password = "s#cr@t%"

  ## specify username for ACL auth (Redis 6.0+)
  # username = "default"

  ## Optional TLS Config
  # tls_ca = "/etc/telegraf/ca.pem"
  # tls_cert = "/etc/telegraf/cert.pem"
  # tls_key = "/etc/telegraf/key.pem"
  ## Use TLS but skip chain & host verification
  # insecure_skip_verify = true
```

## Metrics

The plugin gathers the results of the [INFO](https://redis.io/commands/info)
redis command.  There are two separate measurements: _redis_ and
_redis\_keyspace_, the latter is used for gathering database related statistics.

Additionally the plugin also calculates the hit/miss ratio (keyspace\_hitrate)
and the elapsed time since the last rdb save (rdb\_last\_save\_time\_elapsed).

- redis
  - keyspace_hitrate(float, number)
  - rdb_last_save_time_elapsed(int, seconds)

    **Server**
  - uptime(int, seconds)
  - lru_clock(int, number)
  - redis_version(string)

    **Clients**
  - clients(int, number)
  - client_longest_output_list(int, number)
  - client_biggest_input_buf(int, number)
  - blocked_clients(int, number)

    **Memory**
  - used_memory(int, bytes)
  - used_memory_rss(int, bytes)
  - used_memory_peak(int, bytes)
  - total_system_memory(int, bytes)

    **Persistence**
  - loading(int,flag)
  - rdb_changes_since_last_save(int, number)

  - rdb_last_bgsave_status(string)
  - rdb_last_bgsave_time_sec(int, seconds)
  - rdb_current_bgsave_time_sec(int, seconds)
  - aof_enabled(int, flag)
  - aof_rewrite_in_progress(int, flag)
  - aof_rewrite_scheduled(int, flag)
  - aof_last_rewrite_time_sec(int, seconds)
  - aof_current_rewrite_time_sec(int, seconds)
  - aof_last_bgrewrite_status(string)
  - aof_last_write_status(string)

    **Stats**
  - total_connections_received(int, number)
  - total_commands_processed(int, number)
  - instantaneous_ops_per_sec(int, number)
  - total_net_input_bytes(int, bytes)

  - instantaneous_input_kbps(float, KB/sec)
  - instantaneous_output_kbps(float, KB/sec)
  - rejected_connections(int, number)
  - sync_full(int, number)
  - sync_partial_ok(int, number)
  - sync_partial_err(int, number)

    **Cluster**
  - cluster_enabled(int, flag)

- redis_keyspace
  - keys(int, number)
  - expires(int, number)
  - avg_ttl(int, number)

- redis_cmdstat
    Every Redis used command will have 3 new fields:
  - calls(int, number)
  - usec(int, mircoseconds)
  - usec_per_call(float, microseconds)

- redis_replication
  - tags:
    - replication_role
    - replica_ip
    - replica_port
    - state (either "online", "wait_bgsave", or "send_bulk")

  - fields:
    - lag(int, number)
    - offset(int, number)

### Tags

- All measurements have the following tags:
  - port
  - server
  - replication_role

- The redis_keyspace measurement has an additional database tag:
  - database

- The redis_cmdstat measurement has an additional tag:
  - command

## Example Output

Using this configuration:

```toml
[[inputs.redis]]
  ## specify servers via a url matching:
  ##  [protocol://][:password]@address[:port]
  ##  e.g.
  ##    tcp://localhost:6379
  ##    tcp://:password@192.168.99.100
  ##
  ## If no servers are specified, then localhost is used as the host.
  ## If no port is specified, 6379 is used
  servers = ["tcp://localhost:6379"]
```

When run with:

```sh
./telegraf --config telegraf.conf --input-filter redis --test
```

It produces:

```shell
