prometheus

This module enables prometheus metrics for CoreDNS. The default location for the metrics is localhost:9135. The metrics path is fixed to /metrics.

The following metrics are exported:

  • coredns_dns_request_count_total
  • coredns_dns_request_duration_seconds
  • coredns_dns_response_size_bytes
  • coredns_dns_response_rcode_count_total

Each counter has a label zone which is the zonename used for the request/response. and a label qtype which old the query type. The dns_request_count_total has an extra label proto which holds the transport of the response ("udp" or "tcp"). The response_rcode_count_total has an extra label rcode which holds the rcode of the response.

If monitoring is enabled queries that do not enter the middleware chain are exported under the fake domain "dropped" (without a closing dot).

Restarting CoreDNS will stop the monitoring. This is a bug. Also this upstream Caddy bug.

Syntax

For each zone that you want to see metrics for.
