Ansible Role: Prometheus Exporter Installer

This Ansible role helps you install Prometheus exporters on your server.

It works with all exporters that follow a similar setup as the official ones. The tool promu is used to create and package the exporters for different types of systems and then upload the final packages to GitHub.

Use Case

• Install one or more exporters on a system.
• Useful for running traditional virtual machines that may be used for multiple services.

Requirements

• None.
