How to customize the server info report configurations

We can change the report configurations in the plugin_attr section of conf/config.yaml.

Name Type Default Description
report_interval integer 60 the interval to report server info to etcd (unit: second, maximum: 3600, minimum: 60).
report_ttl integer 7200 the live time for server info in etcd (unit: second, maximum: 86400, minimum: 3600).

Here is an example, which modifies the report_interval to 10 minutes and sets the report_ttl to one hour.

plugin_attr:
  server-info:
    report_interval: 600,
    report_ttl: 3600

Test Plugin

After enabling this plugin, you can access these data through the plugin Control API:

$ curl http://127.0.0.1:9090/v1/server_info -s | jq .
{
  "etcd_version": "3.5.0",
  "up_time": 9460,
  "last_report_time": 1608531519,
  "id": "b7ce1c5c-b1aa-4df7-888a-cbe403f3e948",
  "hostname": "fedora32",
  "version": "2.1",
  "boot_time": 1608522102

The APISIX Dashboard will collects server info in etcd, so you may also try to check them through Dashboard.
