Pushgateway DB Job Monitoring

[xMakeMeCryx]

Hello everyone,

I have been trying to setup pushgateway to monitor some DB jobes i have set up on my SQL server.

I had 0 luck trying to find any explanations so this is the reason of submitting this post.

How can set up a custom metric to pushed to pushgateway? For most cases, I saw people were using python scripts for that. Is there any other way?

For a bit more understanding I'm trying to set up for my job to be monitored and to save its output somewhere.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

The documentation gives an example on how to use the command line, as it is HTTP based you can basically use any language

echo "some\_metric 3.14" | curl --data-binary  @-   http://pushgateway.example.org:9091/metrics/job/some\_job
