How does the module work?

The "MongoDB Exporter - Detect" module operates by sending HTTP requests and evaluating the responses against predefined matching conditions. It checks for specific patterns in the response body and verifies the HTTP status code to determine if the MongoDB exporter is present.

Here is an example of an HTTP request used by the module:

GET /metrics

The module applies the following matching conditions:

- The response body must contain the phrase "# HELP" - The response body must contain either "mongodb" or "mongodb_exporter_build_info" - The HTTP status code must be 200

If all the matching conditions are met, the module identifies the presence of the MongoDB exporter.

For more information, you can refer to the official GitHub repository of the MongoDB exporter.
