# PgBouncer Input Plugin

The `pgbouncer` plugin provides metrics for your PgBouncer load balancer.

More information about the meaning of these metrics can be found in the
[PgBouncer Documentation](https://pgbouncer.github.io/usage.html).

- PgBouncer minimum tested version: 1.5

## Configuration example

```toml
[[inputs.pgbouncer]]
  ## specify address via a url matching:
  ##   postgres://[pqgotest[:password]]@host:port[/dbname]\
  ##       ?sslmode=[disable|verify-ca|verify-full]
  ## or a simple string:
  ##   host=localhost port=5432 user=pqgotest password=... sslmode=... dbname=app_production
  ##
  ## All connection parameters are optional.
  ##
  address = "host=localhost user=pgbouncer sslmode=disable"
```

### `address`

Specify address via a postgresql connection string:

  `host=/run/postgresql port=6432 user=telegraf database=pgbouncer`

Or via an url matching:

  `postgres://[pqgotest[:password]]@host:port[/dbname]?sslmode=[disable|verify-ca|verify-full]`

All connection parameters are optional.

Without the dbname parameter, the driver will default to a database with the same name as the user.
This dbname is just for instantiating a connection with the server and doesn't restrict the databases we are trying to grab metrics for.
