# HashiCorp Consul Node by HTTP

## Overview

The template to monitor HashiCorp Consul by Zabbix that works without any external scripts.  
Most of the metrics are collected in one go, thanks to Zabbix bulk data collection.  
Do not forget to enable Prometheus format for export metrics.
See [documentation](https://www.consul.io/docs/agent/options#telemetry-prometheus_retention_time).  
More information about metrics you can find in [official documentation](https://www.consul.io/docs/agent/telemetry).  

Template `HashiCorp Consul Node by HTTP` — collects metrics by HTTP agent from /v1/agent/metrics endpoint.

## Requirements

Zabbix version: 7.2 and higher.

## Tested versions

This template has been tested on:
- HashiCorp Consul 1.10.0

## Configuration

> Zabbix should be configured according to the instructions in the [Templates out of the box](https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/7.2/manual/config/templates_out_of_the_box) section.

## Setup

Internal service metrics are collected from /v1/agent/metrics endpoint.
Do not forget to enable Prometheus format for export metrics. See [documentation](https://www.consul.io/docs/agent/options#telemetry-prometheus_retention_time).
Template need to use Authorization via API token.

Don't forget to change macros {$CONSUL.NODE.API.URL}, {$CONSUL.TOKEN}.  
Also, see the Macros section for a list of macros used to set trigger values. 
More information about metrics you can find in [official documentation](https://www.consul.io/docs/agent/telemetry). 

This template support [Consul namespaces](https://www.consul.io/docs/enterprise/namespaces). You can set macros {$CONSUL.LLD.FILTER.SERVICE_NAMESPACE.MATCHES}, {$CONSUL.LLD.FILTER.SERVICE_NAMESPACE.NOT_MATCHES} if you want to filter discovered services by namespace.  
In case of Open Source version service namespace will be set to 'None'.

*NOTE.* Some metrics may not be collected depending on your HashiCorp Consul instance version and configuration.  
*NOTE.* You maybe are interested in Envoy Proxy by HTTP [template](../../envoy_proxy_http).
