this discussion should be held elsewhere, let me know.
You proposed the prometheus-community to adopt you exporter, which is
a super cool idea. But IMHO before that you should have or plan to
expose a bit more metrics.
The metric list in the README contains only domain related metrics.
Other exporters like tinkoff (the one I'm using) expose a bit more, I
know there are metrics about pools at least. Do you plan to include
more metrics in the future (volumes, volume pools, networks...)? I can
understand if you need only domain related metrics but I think the
other metrics should be there if this become a kinda official exporter
for libvirt.
Please kindly raise an issue on GitHub [1] about this and kindly include
as much detail as you can. E.g. the metric names other exporters expose
and maybe some examples of how they look like for you).
If there are metrics which can be easily added I don't see much of an
issue doing so.
I'd also encourage you to respond to the prometheus-community issue to
give this some more traction maybe.
