Step 1: Open a terminal or command prompt.
Step 2: Navigate to the directory where you want to download Redis Exporter. You can use the cd
command to change directories. For example, to navigate to the home directory, you can use:
bashCopy code
cd ~
Step 3: Use wget
to download the Redis Exporter binary. In this example, we'll download version 1.15.2 for Linux (amd64). Run the following command:
bashCopy code
wget https://github.com/oliver006/redis_exporter/releases/download/v1.15.2/redis_exporter-v1.15.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz
This command will initiate the download of the Redis Exporter binary from the specified URL.
Step 4: Once the download is complete, extract the downloaded archive using the tar
command:
Copy code
tar xzf redis_exporter-v1.15.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz
This command will extract the contents of the archive into a directory called redis_exporter-v1.15.2.linux-amd64
.
Step 5: Change into the extracted directory:
bashCopy code
cd redis_exporter-v1.15.2.linux-amd64
Step 6: You can now run the Redis Exporter binary. For example, to start Redis Exporter on port 9121, use the following command:
arduinoCopy code
./redis_exporter --web.listen-address=":9121"
This command will start Redis Exporter and make it accessible on port 9121.
That's it! Redis Exporter is now downloaded and running. You can configure your monitoring system (e.g., Prometheus) to scrape metrics from Redis Exporter using the specified address and port.
