The interval in seconds on which to aggregate metrics. Calculated metrics will be emitted after the interval passes.

include

regex

.*

A regex that must match against the metric's name in order to calculate statistics from it. The default value matches all metrics.

stats

[]string

["min", "max", "avg"]

A list of statistics to calculate on matched metrics. Valid values are: min, max, avg, first, and last.

Example Configuration

Calculate Average, Minimum, and Maximum

Calculate the average, minimum, and maximum values of each incoming metric, and emit them with a .avg, .min, and .max suffix, respectively.
