Example to setup and use prometheus_posh_client

[pebauer]

Hi there,
first of all I am new to Prometheus and Grafana.

I have already set up my development environment (prometheus and grafana) on Linux Server.
I have already downloaded the prometheus_posh_client-master on my Windows Server 2012R2 machine.

How can I set up my custom PowerShell-Script to push results periodically to prometheus's push gateway?

• Do I have to encapsulate my PowerShell-Script as a Windows Service to be periodically executed? And if so, how can I do this?
• Does the Windows Firewall of my Windows Server 2012R2 machine has to be configured additionally?

A documentation / instruction manual for setting up the prometheus_posh_client would be great!

Thanks for your help in advance!
