follow the example in [examples/systemd](./examples/systemd/README.md). Alternatively, you can run the exporter
in a Docker container.

### Docker Compose Setup

For a complete monitoring stack including NGINX, NGINX Prometheus Exporter, Prometheus, and Grafana,
see the [Docker Compose example](./examples/docker-compose/README.md).

The Docker Compose setup provides:

- NGINX server with stub_status enabled
- NGINX Prometheus Exporter for metrics collection
- Prometheus for time-series storage
- Grafana for visualization with pre-configured dashboards
- Sample web application for testing

Quick start (nginx-exporter only):

```console
docker-compose up -d nginx-exporter
```

For a complete monitoring stack with all services:

```console
docker-compose up -d
```
