laanwj b3c7cce8d9 prometheus: Listen on 127.0.0.1 by default
Make the prometheus plugin listen on 127.0.0.1 (localhost) by default
instead of open to the world. This closes a privacy breach in the
default configuration.

Prometheus plugin for c-lightning

This plugin exposes some key metrics from c-lightning in the prometheus format so it can be scraped, plotted and alerts can be created on it. The plugin adds the following command line arguments:

  • prometheus-listen: the IP address and port to bind the HTTP server to (default: 127.0.0.1:9750)

Exposed variables include:

  • node: ID, version, ...
  • peers: whether they are connected, and how many channels are currently open
  • channels: fund allocations, spendable funds, and how many unresolved HTLCs are currently attached to the channel
  • funds: satoshis in on-chain outputs, satoshis allocated to channels and total sum (may be inaccurate during channel resolution).
