This playbook can configure Prometheus Node Exporter.

To enable this service, add the following configuration to your vars.yml file and re-run the installation process:
########################################################################
# #
# prometheus-node-exporter #
# #
########################################################################
prometheus_node_exporter_enabled: true
# To expose the metrics publicly, enable and configure the lines below:
# prometheus_node_exporter_hostname: mash.example.com
# prometheus_node_exporter_path_prefix: /metrics/node-exporter
# To protect the metrics with HTTP Basic Auth, enable and configure the lines below:
# prometheus_node_exporter_basicauth_enabled: true
# prometheus_node_exporter_basicauth_user: your_username
# prometheus_node_exporter_basicauth_password: your password
########################################################################

Unless you're scraping the Prometheus Node Exporter metrics from a local Prometheus instance, as described in Integrating with Prometheus Node Exporter, you will probably wish to expose the metrics publicly so that a remote Prometheus instance can fetch them.
Usage
After you installed the node exporter, your node stats will be available on mash.example.com/metrics/node-exporter with basic auth credentials you configured
To integrate Prometheus Node Exporter with a Prometheus instance, see the Integrating with Prometheus Node Exporter section of the documentation.
