Round Processor Plugin

This plugin allows to round numerical field values to the configured precision. This is particularly useful in combination with the dedup processor to reduce the number of metrics sent to the output if only a lower precision is required for the values.

Global configuration options

In addition to the plugin-specific configuration settings, plugins support additional global and plugin configuration settings. These settings are used to modify metrics, tags, and field or create aliases and configure ordering, etc. See the CONFIGURATION.md for more details.

Configuration

# Round numerical fields
[[processors.round]]
  ## Precision to round to.
  ## A positive number indicates rounding to the right of the decimal separator (i.e. the fractional part).
  ## A negative number indicates rounding to the left of the decimal separator.
  # precision = 0

  ## Round only numeric fields matching the filter criteria below.
  ## Excludes takes precedence over includes.
  # include_fields = ["*"]
  # exclude_fields = []

Example

Round each value the inputs.cpu plugin generates, except for the usage_steal, usage_user, uptime_format, usage_idle field:

[[inputs.cpu]]
  percpu = true
  totalcpu = true
  collect_cpu_time = false
  report_active = false

[[processors.round]]
  precision = 1
  include_fields = []
  exclude_fields = ["usage_steal", "usage_user", "uptime_format", "usage_idle" ]

Result of rounding the cpu metric:
