Cant get this working

[bitcrusherr]

Only steps i have not followed and that is running it as a system service as i do not wish to

I have run the service which states running and shows listen address localhost:9500

copy and pasted your config into Prometheus but nothing shows up in Prometheus dashboard / gui

hi, have you replaced <node hostname or IP>:9500 with your address in prometheus config? and how about if you hit http://127.0.0.1:9500/metrics/coins?ids=cosmos is it working?

You instructions need updating, i know to edit the hostname or ip though you were missing ' around job_name its working now thanks yesterday was tired today clear head its here!

Also next time make it so the "request processed aren't printed over everything (Not sure of correct term sorry)

Thanks appreciate the software

- job_name: 'coins-exporter' scrape_interval: 15s metrics_path: /metrics/coins static_configs: - targets: - juno-network,cosmos,osmosis,lukso-token relabel_configs: - source_labels: [__address__] target_label: __param_ids - source_labels: [__param_ids] target_label: instance - target_label: __address__ replacement: localhost:9500

Sometimes Prometheus returns with a null / 0 value from coins-exporter

Alright thanks for letting me know. Will update instructions later.
There's a rate limit of 40-60 requests per minute on Coingecko API, so it's better to set scrape interval below that rate limit.

That is all useful information to list in description! I am putting together something for a coin that uses this, everything is linked to your github so as much information would benefit other users!
