How to use "Custom telegraf input plugin" on other system using java

Telegraf
1

I have wriiten a plugin called “json_endpoint” , which is used to get the endpoints of json output
For example:
Lets assume this URL “http://tes-URl:8081/metrics” return this

JSON

{
    A :  {
           B: {
                    C:1
                    D:"hi"
                 }
    }

}

To fetch value of 1 and “hi”, I can specify the EndpointsReq = [“A.B.C”,“A.B.D”].

I have developed this in my local system and now i need to use this in my other java project which will be running on other system.

@mohith_rajendra I’m unclear what you are asking here but we do have some java support through the jolokia plugin. There are also a couple of open feature requests for Java related plugins. Does that help?

One thing you could do is expose the metrics in Prometheus format and poll them with telegraf.
