Filtering Queries

Many of the endpoints above accept a query filter argument, which should be a list of Query data structures:

API and CLI query examples

CLI Queries

Ceilometer CLI Commands:

$ ceilometer --debug --os-username <username_here> --os-password <password_here> --os-auth-url http://localhost:5000/v2.0/ --os-tenant-name admin  meter-list

or:

$ ceilometer --os-username admin --os-password password --os-tenant-name admin project-list

Note

The username, password, and tenant-name options are required to be present in these commands or specified via environment variables. Note that the in-line commands will override the environment variables.

API Queries

Ceilometer API calls:

Note

To successfully query the Ceilometer you must first get a project-specific token from the Keystone service and add it to any API calls that you execute against that project. See the Openstack credentials documentation for additional details.

A simple query to return a list of available meters:

$ curl -X GET -H 'X-Auth-Token:<inserttokenhere>' "http://localhost:8777/v2/meters"

A query to return the list of resources:

$ curl -X GET -H 'X-Auth-Token:<inserttokenhere>' "http://localhost:8777/v2/resources"

A query to return the list of meters, limited to a specific meter type:

$ curl -X GET -H 'X-Auth-Token:<inserttokenhere>' "http://localhost:8777/v2/meters/disk.root.size"

A query using filters (see: query filter section):

$ curl -X GET -H 'X-Auth-Token:<inserttokenhere>' "http://localhost:8777/v2/meters/instance?q.field=metadata.event_type&q.value=compute.instance.delete.start"

Additional examples:

$ curl -X GET -H 'X-Auth-Token:<inserttokenhere>' "http://localhost:8777/v2/meters/disk.root.size?q.field=resource_id&q.op=eq&q.value=<resource_id_here>"

or:

$ curl -X GET -H 'X-Auth-Token:<inserttokenhere>' "http://localhost:8777/v2/meters/instance?q.field=metadata.event_type&q.value=compute.instance.exists"

and finally, a JSON-based example:

$ curl -X GET -H 'X-Auth-Token:<inserttokenhere>' -H 'Content-Type:application/json' -d '{"q":[{"field": "timestamp","op": "ge","value":"2013-04-01T13:34:17"}]}' http://localhost:8777/v2/meters
