* Package name : proftpd-mod-prometheus Version : 0.2 Upstream Contact: TJ Saunders <t...@castaglia.org> * URL : https://github.com/Castaglia/proftpd-mod_prometheus * License : GPL Programming Lang: C Description : ProFTPD module for prometheus integration The purpose of the mod_prometheus module is to provide metrics for scraping by Prometheus (https://prometheus.io/). . Installation instructions are discussed here. Note that mod_prometheus requires ProFTPD 1.3.7a or later. - why is this package useful/relevant? We want to collect metrics from proftpd in Prometheus and visualize them in real time with Grafana for support and monitoring purposes. - is it a dependency for another package? do you use it? I don't see this package as a dependency for something we already use. - if there are other packages providing similar functionality, how does it compare? I don't know if other packages like mod_statsd or mod_snmp offer the same functionality and then we could convert their output to Prometheus format. However, I haven't investigated this possibility yet. I'm a member of the ProFTP team, I plan to maintain it in that group. Hilmar
