Configuration

Edit the python.d/squid.conf configuration file using edit-config from the Netdata config directory, which is typically at /etc/netdata.

cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different

sudo ./edit-config python.d/squid.conf

priority : 50000

local:

request : 'cache_object://localhost:3128/counters'

host : 'localhost'

Without any configuration module will try to autodetect where squid presents its counters data
