r/devops on Reddit: How do you all use nginx exporter ?
March 10, 2025 -
I need the exporter to show metrics on grafana through Prometheus. But the fact that nginx Prometheus exporter is very basic , how can I make it more customised? Like showing latency, error/success for each api, etc
It would be also helpful if you all can suggest some other important metrics.
Intern need to impress manager.

First of all, ingress exporter has much more data, so direct nginx exporter is not needed. But for cases where we're not using ingress, but plain ol' nginx... Base nginx-prometheus-exporter is indeed very basic, but there are some options. For starters, there is vts exporter with a bit more metrics. It might be enough for you. It wasn't for us. You can get some metrics from logs, as we did (we push our logs to loki, then we could parse them in grafana). Next and last step would be to use fluentd to parse those logs and generate metrics from them. And that's basically all you need to get most possible metrics from nginx.
