I have a cluster deployed with: https://bitnami.com/stack/prometheus-operator/helm and https://github.com/prometheus-community/postgres_exporter
How to properly add own metrics to the prometheus-operator list of metrics that postgres_exporter exports ?
I tried it that way:
helm upgrade kube-prometheus bitnami/kube-prometheus \
--set prometheus.additionalScrapeConfigs.enabled=true \
--set prometheus.additionalScrapeConfigs.type=internal \
--set prometheus.additionalScrapeConfigs.internal.jobList=
- job_name: 'prometheus-postgres-exporter'
static_configs:
- targets: ['prometheus-postgres-exporter.default:80']
but it doesn't work ('job_name:' are not added to the Prometheus Configuration).
Use ServiceMonitors if using Prometheus Operator.
Configure the following block under the values.yaml in the postgres-exporter helm chart.This allows Prometheus Operator to read and configure jobs automatically.
serviceMonitor:
# When set true then use a ServiceMonitor to configure scraping
enabled: true
# Set the namespace the ServiceMonitor should be deployed
namespace: <namespace where prometheus operator is deployed.>
# Set how frequently Prometheus should scrape
interval: 30s
# Set path to cloudwatch-exporter telemtery-path
telemetryPath: /metrics
# Set labels for the ServiceMonitor, use this to define your scrape label for Prometheus Operator
# labels:
# Set timeout for scrape
# timeout: 10s
# Set of labels to transfer from the Kubernetes Service onto the target
# targetLabels: []
# MetricRelabelConfigs to apply to samples before ingestion
# metricRelabelings: []
