Help installing the Prometheus Node Exporter service

LibDisPro · February 6, 2022 at 11:22 PM

I would like to install the Prometheus Node Exporter service on my Librelec Installation in order to monitor it using my prometheus instance.

I can see that the addon exists on Github at: https://github.com/LibreELEC/Libr…s-node-exporter

However, when I check the list of addons on my libreelec instance, the addon is not listed there. How do I get the addon and install it?

Hi LibDisPro - just checking what hardware and version of LibreELEC you are using? (assume you are using LE10 or LE9)

With LibreELEC nightlies it is in:

- Add-ons / Services / Prometheus Node Exporter

- it is not in LibreELEC 10 or earlier (but could potentially be backported to LE10)

It was added to the LibreELEC master from this PR:

Hi heitbaum - I'm using Libreelec 10.0.1 standard release build on a Raspberry Pi 4 SBC.

Thanks for clarifying that the addon is currently only available in nightlies and not in any release build. Would it be possible to backport it to LE10 while we wait for the next release?

That seems to be working perfectly. Thanks a lot.
