Can't create new metricset

noamblu1 · July 3, 2017, 7:46am

Hi,
I have tried to create new metricset on a Windows server r2 with the command "make create-metricset" at the metricbeat directory and I receive an output of " 'make' is not recognized as an internal command or external command, operable program or batch file"
( I have installed go)
I guss I don't use the command the right way, so how do I use it.

Hi @noamblu1,

I'm afraid our make scripts are meant to be run on Linux. In the other hand, it should be easy to extract the needed commands to do it by yourself:

github.com

elastic/beats/blob/57b592628303a04d9307afdf0d90872203e61c6d/metricbeat/Makefile#L77


	sed -i.bk 's/- load/#- load/' $(PREFIX)/metricbeat-win.reference.yml
	rm $(PREFIX)/metricbeat-win.reference.yml.bk
endif


# Runs all collection steps and updates afterwards
.PHONY: collect
collect: fields collect-docs configs kibana imports


# Creates a new metricset. Requires the params MODULE and METRICSET
.PHONY: create-metricset
create-metricset: python-env
	@${PYTHON_ENV}/bin/python ${ES_BEATS}/metricbeat/scripts/create_metricset.py --path=$(PWD) --es_beats=$(ES_BEATS) --module=$(MODULE) --metricset=$(METRICSET)


# Generates the data.json example documents
.PHONY: generate-json
generate-json: build-image
	 ${DOCKER_COMPOSE} run beat go test -tags=integration github.com/elastic/beats/metricbeat/module/... -data


.PHONY: run-module
run-module: ## @testing Runs the given module with exposing the port. Needs $MODULE and $PORT as param
run-module:

Also you can copy an existing module and adapt it to your needs, ie:

Thank you for the support earlier,
I have another question
If I run the command: "make" does it run all over the makefile?
