Prometheus Exporter for the Twitch.tv API

Proof of Concept, using (deprecated) v5 (Kraken) Twitch API

Combination of Prometheus logo and Kappa emote from Twitch

Usage

Copy example.env to .env, and modify as necessary:

Variable What it does
LOG_LEVEL Log verbosity of the exporter. Options are: debug, info, warn, error
KRAKEN_CLIENT_ID Twitch API Client ID You can get one from https://glass.twitch.tv/console/apps
TWITCH_CHANNELS Comma-separated list of Twitch channels to monitor

Local

Run locally with:

go run *.go

Docker

Launch the exporter, as well as a prometheus instance with:

docker-compose up -d

Prometheus will be available, on http://localhost:9090

The docker-compose file also comes with Grafana, with a pre-configured dashboard, on http://localhost:3000 (username/password: admin/foobar)

If you want to add more channels, just modify .env, and reload the exporter with:

docker-compose up -d twitch_exporter

TODO

  • Migrate to the new (Helix) Twitch API

  • Bundle prometheus and grafana configs up into docker images

  • Automate builds

  • Track followers for non-live channels (less frequently)

  • Track how viewers are subs, followers, regulars, first time, etc. if possible

  • Run this somewhere. ECS?
