Cody Lee 65ad210f20 feat: add UniFi Protect device metrics (closes #1015)
Collects Protect device data (sensors, cameras, lights, bridges, link
stations, NVR) via the official Integration API and exports it through
Prometheus, InfluxDB, and DataDog. Opt-in via save_protect_devices,
gated by protect_api_key.

Bumps github.com/unpoller/unifi to v6, which added the Protect API
client (breaking change: FlexInt/FlexBool/FlexFloat replace nullable
pointers).

Loki Output Plugin for UnPoller

This plugin writes UniFi Events, System Logs, IDS, Alarms, and Anomalies to Loki as JSON.

Log Types

Application Label Config Option API Description
unifi_system_log save_syslog v2 System log events (UDM recommended)
unifi_event save_events v1 Legacy events (older controllers)
unifi_ids save_ids v1 Intrusion Detection System events
unifi_alarm save_alarms v1 Alarm events
unifi_anomaly save_anomalies v1 Anomaly events

Querying in Loki

All logs are stored as JSON. Use Loki's | json parser to extract fields:

{application="unifi_system_log"} | json

Filter by severity:

{application="unifi_system_log", severity="HIGH"} | json

Extract specific fields:

{application="unifi_system_log"} | json | line_format "{{.message}}"

Example Config

[loki]
  # URL is the only required setting for Loki.
  url = "http://192.168.3.2:3100"

  # How often to poll UniFi and report to Loki.
  interval = "2m"

  # How long to wait for Loki responses.
  timeout = "5s"

  # Set these to use basic auth.
  #user = ""
  #pass = ""

  # Used for auth-less multi-tenant.
  #tenant_id = ""

[unifi.defaults]
  # For UDM/UDM-Pro/UCG devices, use save_syslog (v2 API)
  save_syslog = true

  # For older controllers, use save_events (v1 API)
  save_events = false

  # Other log types
  save_ids = false
  save_alarms = false
  save_anomalies = false
