Logs

Under the log directory, there are mainly two files: gin.log and log.

  • gin.log: This is the access log file, which records external accesses to DataKit and does not include GRPC.
  • log: This is the DataKit operation log file, primarily recording the startup and running status of collectors as well as data reporting information.

Collectors

The collector directory is conf.d, which contains over 200 built-in collector configurations. For example, the conf.d/db directory includes more than ten database collector configurations; conf.d/host also has more than a dozen host-related collectors.

Among these, conf.d/datakit.conf is the main configuration for the DataKit collector, including settings related to token, global tags, resources, APIs, etc.
