export block

export is an optional configuration block used to specify an emitted value of a [Module][Modules]. export blocks must be given a label which determine the name of the export.

The export block may not be specified in the main configuration file given to Grafana Agent Flow.

[Modules]: {{< relref "../../concepts/modules.md" >}}

Example

export "ARGUMENT_NAME" {
  value = ARGUMENT_VALUE
}

Arguments

The following arguments are supported:

Name	Type	Description	Default	Required
value	any	Value to export.	yes

The value argument determines what the value of the export will be. To expose an exported field of another component to the module loader, set value to an expression which references that exported value.

Exported fields

The export block does not export any fields.

Example

This example creates a module where the output of discovering Kubernetes pods and nodes are exposed to the module loader:

discovery.kubernetes "pods" {
  role = "pod"
}

discovery.kubernetes "nodes" {
  role = "nodes"
}

export "kubernetes_resources" {
  value = concat(
    discovery.kubernetes.pods.targets,
    discovery.kubernetes.nodes.targets,
  )
}
