New Relic Prometheus OpenMetrics integration
🚧 Important Notice
Prometheus Open Metrics integration for Kubernetes has been replaced by the Prometheus Agent.
See how to install the Prometheus agent to understand its benefits and get a full visibility of your Prometheus workloads running in a Kubernetes cluster.
In case you need to migrate from the Prometheus Open Metrics integration to Open Metrics check the following migration guide.
Fetch metrics in the Prometheus metrics format, inside or outside Kubernetes, and send them to the New Relic platform.
Installation and usage
For documentation about how to use the integration, refer to our documentation website.
Find out more about Prometheus and New Relic in this blog post.
Helm chart
You can install this chart using nri-bundle
located in the
helm-charts repository or directly from this repository by adding this Helm repository:
helm repo add nri-prometheus https://newrelic.github.io/nri-prometheus
helm upgrade --install nri-prometheus/nri-prometheus -f your-custom-values.yaml
For further information of the configuration needed for the chart just read the chart's README.
Building
Golang is required to build the integration. We recommend Golang 1.11 or higher.
This integration requires having a Kubernetes cluster available to deploy and run it. For development, we recommend using Docker, Minikube, and skaffold.
After cloning this repository, go to the directory of the Prometheus integration and build it:
make
The command above executes the tests for the Prometheus integration and builds an executable file called nri-prometheus
under the bin
directory.
To start the integration, run nri-prometheus
:
./bin/nri-prometheus
If you want to know more about usage of ./bin/nri-prometheus
, pass the -help
parameter:
./bin/nri-prometheus -help
External dependencies are managed through the govendor tool. Locking all external dependencies to a specific version (if possible) into the vendor directory is required.
Build the Docker image
In case you wish to push your own version of the image to a Docker registry, you can build it with:
IMAGE_NAME=<YOUR_IMAGE_NAME> make docker-build
And push it later with docker push
Executing the integration in a development cluster
- You need to configure how to deploy the integration in the cluster. Copy deploy/local.yaml.example to deploy/local.yaml and edit the placeholders.
- To get the New Relic license key, visit:
https://newrelic.com/accounts/<YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID>
. It's located in the right sidebar. - After updating the yaml file, you need to compile the integration:
GOOS=linux make compile-only
. - Once you have it compiled, you need to deploy it in your Kubernetes cluster:
skaffold run
Running the Kubernetes Target Retriever locally
It can be useful to run the Kubernetes Target Retriever locally against a remote/local cluster to debug the endpoints that are discovered. The binary located in /cmd/k8s-target-retriever
is made for this.
To run the program, run the following command in your terminal:
# ensure your kubectl is configured correcly & against the correct cluster
kubectl config get-contexts
# run the program
go run cmd/k8s-target-retriever/main.go
Testing
To run the tests execute:
make test
At the moment, tests are totally isolated and you don't need a cluster to run them.
