Emby Metrics Exporter

[Neminem 1709]

Hmm that's odd, did you try the API directly in your beta server.

I get this when I crawl the api 

http://192.168.1.4:8097/emby/System/Info?api_key=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

When I use a generated token, all I get is this

Guys, I haven't even started, but just to understand.
I'm going to use docker on top of unraid and I wanted to know where to put the geoip.mmdb file in this case

If you use docker with the basic created image, everything is included, you don't need to do anything.

Hello,

I've been so busy, I haven't had time to look again.

@LukeThe problem is still present on my side. With the generated token, I don't have access to the same information as with a token retrieved from the requests on my browser.

 

Personal token:

 

Web token:

[Luke 42457]

It returns more data if the token is associated with an admin user.

[Neminem 1709]

@LukeIsen't that, when its created in the api keys section of the server, with that admin login ?

[Luke 42457]

Actually currently no user is assigned to them. It's one thing that needs to be updated is to let you pick the user when you create it.

[Neminem 1709]

Ok so how do we get around this at the moment ?

Can @Bagul use the web api to resolve it, or do we wait.

[Bagul 184]

I looked at the swagger a bit. Can I authenticate with username and password to get an administrator token?

[Neminem 1709]

@BagulI just updated to 4.8.0.80

And It all works, besides Lan and Wan adresses.

But its not at all a problem

Its only a NICE to have feature

I must admit I'm not too keen on asking for the user's username and password.

I'm going to assign default values for the lan and wan addresses to avoid breaking the display.

I fully agree with you that might be a slippery slope.

If that's is possible or just remove it for the time being.

The default value is in case it ever works again, so I don't have to make any changes on my side

In the grafana page I have the same problem as you, I have no info for LAN and WAN since update 4.8.

But it's not that big a deal, I just wanted to let you know about the problem, which I see is being resolved.

Oh, right. 

So I'm going to put something in place that won't solve the problem, but rather mask it.

@BagulI have a problem, and when I install all,l the wan address and the lan address, its in blank. Can you say me to fix this? Thanks

[Neminem 1709]

@loliperoIts a known issue with Emby server 4.8.

For some reason , we can no longer see this info via api key.

[Neminem 1709]

The devs needs to do some work on the API, for us to get that back.

But right now with all that's going on with the new release and all.

It will take a while.

Yes, as @jaycedk said, there is a limitation on the data returned with the generated token.
I'm working on exporter because I've noticed some quirks with the memory, but I'll be releasing a version soon to fix the problem.

Thank you, just thank you.

I have noticed sth strange with the exporter output and thought you guys could help @Bagul@Neminem

Sometimes (rather more often now) when exporting emby_sessions metrics to Grafana into the table I get the strange result that when someone is playing a series with Show name and Episode name and there is another row when someone is playing a movie with just a Movie name, the table gets filled with the nearby Show name as well. Don't know how to explain it well but the picture shows what I mean. Any idea how to make it blank where it should stay blank?

 

[Neminem 1709]

You need to read this

TOomaAh/emby_exporter_go

I short, he is no longer using Emby, and have discontinued this exporter.
