local
The local metrics plugin stores the values on memory.

Parameters

default_labels

Specifies the default labels for the metrics. (default: {agent: "Fluentd", hostname: "#{Socket.gethostname}"})

labels

Specifies other custom labels for the metrics. (default: {})

Example

With this configuration:
1
<system>
2
<metrics>
3
@type local
4
</metrics>
5
</system>
Copied!
The above configuration will save the internal metrics for plugins on memory. As a result, you can retrive metrics from memory and also you can replace with your custom metrics plugin.
Actually, @type local metrics plugin has equivalent functionality for previous single value based Ruby instance variables. This behavior will be changed by other 3rd party plugins.
