metrics

    [ "%{host}/uptime", "%{uptime_1m}" ]

The value will be coerced to a floating point value. Values which cannot be coerced will zero (0)

metrics_format

edit
  • Value type is string
  • Default value is "*"

Defines format of the metric string. The placeholder * will be replaced with the name of the actual metric.

    metrics_format => "foo.bar.*.sum"

If no metrics_format is defined the name of the metric will be used as fallback.
