=== Metricbeat Developer FAQ
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is a list of common questions when creating a metricset and the potential answers.

==== Metricset is not compiled
|
||
|
|
||
|
You are compiling your Beat, but the newly created metricset is not compiled?
|
||
|
|
||
|
Make sure that the path to your module and metricset are added as an import path either in your `main.go`
|
||
|
file or your `include/list.go` file. You can do this manually or by running `make imports`.

|
==== Metricset is not started
|
||
|
|
||
|
The metricset is compiled, but not started when starting Metricbeat?
|
||
|
|
||
|
After creating your metricset, make sure you run `make collect`. This command adds the configuration
|
||
|
of your metricset to the default configuration. If the metricset still doesn't start, check your
|
||
|
default configuration file to see if the metricset is listed there.
