Usage: $0 [OPTIONS]
Export pending APT package updates as Prometheus metrics (v1.7).
MODES:
--textfile Write to node_exporter textfile collector
(default) Output metrics to stdout
OPTIONS:
-o, --output Output file path
-h, --help Show this help message
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES:
METRICS_DIR Textfile collector directory (default: /var/lib/node_exporter)
AUTO_UPDATE_ENABLED Enable automatic package updates (default: false)
AUTO_REMOVE_ENABLED Enable automatic removal of orphaned packages (default: false)
WAIT_PERIOD_ENABLED Wait 3 days before auto-updating (default: true)
CRON_INTERVAL Cron schedule expression (default: 0 0 * * *)
METRICS:
- node_upgrades_pending Pending updates by origin and architecture
- node_upgradelist Per-package upgrade details (name, versions, origin)
- node_autoremove_packages Packages available for auto-removal
- node_auto_updates Packages auto-updated (when enabled)
- node_auto_remove Packages auto-removed (when enabled)
- node_updated_packages Packages updated in last run
- node_removed_packages Packages removed in last auto-removal
- node_reboot_required Whether a reboot is required
EXAMPLES:
$0 # Output metrics to stdout
$0 --textfile # Write to textfile collector
$0 -o /tmp/apt_updates.prom # Write to custom file
AUTO_UPDATE_ENABLED=true $0 # Enable auto-updates
