# Varnish Input Plugin

This plugin gathers statistics from a local [Varnish HTTP Cache][vanish]
instance using the `varnishstat` command.

> [!NOTE]
> This plugin requires the `varnishstat` executable to be installed on the
> system and executable by Telegraf.
> Furthermore, the plugin requires Varnish v6.0.2+.

⭐ Telegraf v0.13.1
🏷️ server, web
💻 freebsd, linux, macos

[vanish]: https://varnish-cache.org

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

Plugins support additional global and plugin configuration settings for tasks
such as modifying metrics, tags, and fields, creating aliases, and configuring
plugin ordering. See [CONFIGURATION.md][CONFIGURATION.md] for more details.

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

## Configuration

```toml @sample.conf
# A plugin to collect stats from Varnish HTTP Cache
# This plugin ONLY supports non-Windows
[[inputs.varnish]]
  ## If running as a restricted user you can prepend sudo for additional access:
  #use_sudo = false

  ## The default location of the varnishstat binary can be overridden with:
  binary = "/usr/bin/varnishstat"

  ## Additional custom arguments for the varnishstat command
  # binary_args = ["-f", "MAIN.*"]

  ## The default location of the varnishadm binary can be overridden with:
  adm_binary = "/usr/bin/varnishadm"

  ## Custom arguments for the varnishadm command
  # adm_binary_args = [""]

  ## Metric version defaults to metric_version=1, use metric_version=2 for removal of nonactive vcls
  ## Varnish 6.0.2 and newer is required for metric_version=2.
  metric_version = 1

  ## Additional regexps to override builtin conversion of varnish metrics into telegraf metrics.
  ## Regexp group "_vcl" is used for extracting the VCL name. Metrics that contain nonactive VCL's are skipped.
  ## Regexp group "_field" overrides the field name. Other named regexp groups are used as tags.
  # regexps = ['^XCNT\.(?P<_vcl>[\w\-]*)(\.)*(?P<group>[\w\-.+]*)\.(?P<_field>[\w\-.+]*)\.val']

  ## By default, telegraf gather stats for 3 metric points.
  ## Setting stats will override the defaults shown below.
  ## Glob matching can be used, ie, stats = ["MAIN.*"]
  ## stats may also be set to ["*"], which will collect all stats
  stats = ["MAIN.cache_hit", "MAIN.cache_miss", "MAIN.uptime"]

  ## Optional name for the varnish instance (or working directory) to query
  ## Usually append after -n in varnish cli
  # instance_name = instanceName

  ## Timeout for varnishstat command
  # timeout = "1s"
```

### Permissions

It's important to note that this plugin references `varnishstat` and
`varnishadm`, which may require additional permissions to execute successfully.
Depending on the user/group permissions of the telegraf user executing this
plugin, you may need to alter the group membership, set facls, or use sudo.

#### Group membership (recommended)

```bash
$ groups telegraf
telegraf : telegraf

$ usermod -a -G varnish telegraf

$ groups telegraf
telegraf : telegraf varnish
```

#### Extended filesystem ACL's

```bash
$ getfacl /var/lib/varnish/<hostname>/_.vsm
# file: var/lib/varnish/<hostname>/_.vsm
# owner: root
# group: root
user::rw-
group::r--
other::---

$ setfacl -m u:telegraf:r /var/lib/varnish/<hostname>/_.vsm

$ getfacl /var/lib/varnish/<hostname>/_.vsm
# file: var/lib/varnish/<hostname>/_.vsm
# owner: root
# group: root
user::rw-
user:telegraf:r--
group::r--
mask::r--
other::---
```

#### Sudo privileges

If you use this method, you will need the following in your telegraf config:

```toml
[[inputs.varnish]]
  use_sudo = true
```

You will also need to update your sudoers file:

```bash
$ visudo
# Add the following line:
Cmnd_Alias VARNISHSTAT = /usr/bin/varnishstat
telegraf  ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: VARNISHSTAT
Defaults!VARNISHSTAT !logfile, !syslog, !pam_session
```

Please use the solution you see as most appropriate.

## Metrics

### Version 1

This is the full list of stats provided by varnish. Stats will be grouped by
their capitalized prefix (eg MAIN, MEMPOOL, etc). In the output, the prefix will
be used as a tag, and removed from field names.

### Tags

As indicated above, the prefix of a varnish stat will be used as it's 'section'
tag. So section tag may have one of the following values:

- section:
  - MAIN
  - MGT
  - MEMPOOL
  - SMA
  - VBE
  - LCK

### Version 2

When `metric_version=2` is enabled, the plugin runs `varnishstat -j` command and
parses the JSON output into metrics.

Plugin uses `varnishadm vcl.list -j` commandline to find the active VCL. Metrics
that are related to the nonactive VCL are excluded from monitoring.

## Example Output

### Example version 1

```text
varnish,host=rpercy-VirtualBox,section=MAIN cache_hit=0i,cache_miss=0i,uptime=8416i 1462765437090957980
```

### Example version 2

```text
varnish,host=kozel.local,section=MAIN n_vampireobject=0i 1631121567000000000
varnish,backend=server_test1,host=kozel.local,section=VBE fail_eacces=0i 1631121567000000000
varnish,backend=default,host=kozel.local,section=VBE req=0i 1631121567000000000
varnish,host=kozel.local,section=MAIN client_req_400=0i 1631121567000000000
varnish,host=kozel.local,section=MAIN shm_cycles=10i 1631121567000000000
varnish,backend=default,host=kozel.local,section=VBE pipe_hdrbytes=0i 1631121567000000000
```

You can merge metrics together into a metric with multiple fields into the most
memory and network transfer efficient form using `aggregators.merge`

```toml
[[aggregators.merge]]
  drop_original = true
```

The output will be:

```text
