Telegraf is an agent for collecting, processing, aggregating, and
writing metrics. Plugin-driven, it has the concept of 4 distinct plugin
types:
* Input Plugins collect metrics from the system, services, or 3rd party
APIs
* Processor Plugins transform, decorate, and/or filter metrics
* Aggregator Plugins create aggregate metrics (e.g. mean, min, max,
quantiles, etc.)
* Output Plugins write metrics to various destinations

doas(1) support
===============
If you use any of the following input plugins, you do not need to
install and configure sudo:

* pf
* NSD
* OpenNTPD
* OpenSMTPD
* Unbound

Below are some example doas.conf(5) lines which could be used. If you
have a nonstandard configuration of those daemons, adjustments to the
location of binaries and arguments may be needed.

permit nopass _telegraf as _unbound cmd /usr/sbin/unbound-control \
args stats_noreset
permit nopass _telegraf as _nsd cmd /usr/sbin/nsd-control args stats_noreset
permit nopass _telegraf cmd /sbin/pfctl args -s info
permit nopass _telegraf cmd /usr/sbin/ntpctl args -s peers
permit nopass _telegraf cmd /usr/sbin/smtpctl args show stats

Resource Limits
===============
telegraf runs with a dedicated login class. See /etc/login.conf.d/telegraf
and refer to getcap(3), login.conf(5), and rc.d(8) for further details.
