This playbook can configure Postgres Exporter by utilizing mother-of-all-self-hosting/ansible-role-postgres-exporter.
To enable this service, add the following configuration to your vars.yml
file and re-run the installation process:
########################################################################
# #
# prometheus_postgres_exporter #
# #
########################################################################
prometheus_postgres_exporter_enabled: true
# To expose the metrics publicly, enable and configure the lines below:
# prometheus_postgres_exporter_hostname: mash.example.com
# prometheus_postgres_exporter_path_prefix: /metrics/mash-prometheus-postgres-exporter
# To protect the metrics with HTTP Basic Auth, enable and configure the lines below.
# See: https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/middlewares/http/basicauth/#users
# prometheus_postgres_exporter_container_labels_metrics_middleware_basic_auth_enabled: true
# prometheus_postgres_exporter_container_labels_metrics_middleware_basic_auth_users: ''

Unless you're scraping the Postgres Exporter metrics from a local Prometheus instance, as described in Integrating with Postgres Exporter, you will probably wish to expose the metrics publicly so that a remote Prometheus instance can fetch them.
After you installed the exporter, your stats will be available on mash.example.com/metrics/mash-prometheus-postgres-exporter
with basic auth credentials you configured
