Is it necessary that the output should be a float value? What if I want to scrape something else? For eg. I want to scrape the version of VMWare-Tools running in the VM. I have stored that in a file in Prometheus format but I am getting the below error: text format parsing error in line 1: expected float as value, got "' *10.3.10.10540*'" The bold is the output that I need to push to prometheus.
