No container collector available

[ggsince88]

I wanted to test using the container collector but I get an error that it is not available as a collector. I am on Windows Server 2019 (1809) with docker version 18.09.2 using WMI Exporter version 8.0.1

Error

PS C:\temp> .\wmi_exporter.exe --collectors.enabled "container"
�[31mFATA�[0m[0000] Couldn't load collectors: collector 'container' not available  �[31msource�[0m="exporter.go:330"

Hi @ggsince88,
Thanks for reporting! That seems odd, I'll have a look at the build logs and see if I can understand why. Meanwhile, could you see if it works for you with older versions? Specifically 0.8.0 and 0.7.0. Thanks!

This is a bug. I'll release a patch asap.
