# Final Aggregator Plugin
|
||
|
|
||
|
This plugin emits the last metric of a contiguous series, defined as a
|
||
|
series which receives updates within the time period in `series_timeout`. The
|
||
|
contiguous series may be longer than the time interval defined by `period`.
|
||
|
When a series has not been updated within the `series_timeout`, the last metric
|
||
|
is emitted.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Alternatively, the plugin emits the last metric in the `period` for the
|
||
|
`periodic` output strategy.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is useful for getting the final value for data sources that produce
|
||
|
discrete time series such as procstat, cgroup, kubernetes etc. or to downsample
|
||
|
metrics collected at a higher frequency.
|
||
|
|
||
|
> [!NOTE]
|
||
|
> All emited metrics do have fields with `_final` appended to the field-name
|
||
|
> by default.

## Global configuration options <!-- @/docs/includes/plugin_config.md -->
|
||
|
|
||
|
In addition to the plugin-specific configuration settings, plugins support
|
||
|
additional global and plugin configuration settings. These settings are used to
|
||
|
modify metrics, tags, and field or create aliases and configure ordering, etc.
|
||
|
See the [CONFIGURATION.md][CONFIGURATION.md] for more details.
|
||
|

[CONFIGURATION.md]: ../../../docs/CONFIGURATION.md#plugins
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Configuration
|
||
|
|
||
|
```toml @sample.conf
|
||
|
# Report the final metric of a series
|
||
|
[[aggregators.final]]
|
||
|
## The period on which to flush & clear the aggregator.
|
||
|
# period = "30s"
|
||
|
|
||
|
## If true, the original metric will be dropped by the
|
||
|
## aggregator and will not get sent to the output plugins.
|
||
|
# drop_original = false
|
||
|
|
||
|
## If false, _final is added to every field name
|
||
|
# keep_original_field_names = false
|
||
|
|
||
|
## The time that a series is not updated until considering it final. Ignored
|
||
|
## when output_strategy is "periodic".
|
||
|
# series_timeout = "5m"
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Output strategy, supported values:
|
||
|
## timeout -- output a metric if no new input arrived for `series_timeout`
|
||
|
## periodic -- output the last received metric every `period`
|
||
|
# output_strategy = "timeout"
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Output strategy
|
||
|
|
||
|
By default (`output_strategy = "timeout"`) the plugin will only emit a metric
|
||
|
for the period if the last received one is older than the series_timeout. This
|
||
|
will not guarantee a regular output of a `final` metric e.g. if the
|
||
|
series-timeout is a multiple of the gathering interval for an input. In this
|
||
|
case metric sporadically arrive in the timeout phase of the period and emitting
|
||
|
the `final` metric is suppressed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Contrary to this, `output_strategy = "periodic"` will always output a `final`
|
||
|
metric at the end of the period irrespectively of when the last metric arrived,
|
||
|
the `series_timeout` is ignored.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Metrics
|
||
|
|
||
|
Measurement and tags are unchanged, fields are emitted with the suffix
|
||
|
`_final`.
