# docker-compose
Four containers to spin up.</br>
While the illustrious [stefanprodan/dockprom](https://github.com/stefanprodan/dockprom)
also got alertmanager and pushgateway, this is a simpler setup for now.
* **Prometheus** - monitoring system that pulls and stores data from exporters
and then exposes them for visualization.
Can also alert if a metric fails preset rule.
* **Grafana** - web based visualization of the collected metrics
in nice graphs, gauges, tables,...
* **NodeExporter** - exporter for linux machines,
in this case gathering docker host metrics,
like uptime, cpu load, memory use, network bandwidth use, disk space,...
* **cAdvisor** - exporter for gathering docker containers metrics,
showing cpu, memory, network use of each container
`docker-compose.yml`
```yml

# GRAFANA

```
**All containers must be on the same network**.</br>
If one does not exist yet: `docker network create caddy_net`
# Configuration files
Setup is mostly configured through config files.
Some of the grafana config files could be ommited and info passed on the first run,
but setting it through GUI wont generate these files which hinders backup.
#### prometheus.yml
* [official documentation](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/configuration/configuration/)
A config file for prometheus, bind mounted in to prometheus container.</br>
This one contains the bare minimum setup of endpoints to be scraped for data.
`prometheus.yml`
```yml
global:
scrape_interval: 15s
evaluation_interval: 15s
# A scrape configuration containing exactly one endpoint to scrape.
scrape_configs:
- job_name: 'nodeexporter'
scrape_interval: 5s
static_configs:
- targets: ['nodeexporter:9100']
- job_name: 'cadvisor'
scrape_interval: 5s
static_configs:
- targets: ['cadvisor:8080']
- job_name: 'prometheus'
scrape_interval: 10s
static_configs:
- targets: ['localhost:9090']
```
#### datasource.yml
* /grafana/provisioning/datasources/**datasource.yml**
* [official documentation](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/administration/provisioning/#datasources)
Grafana's datasources config file, from where it suppose to get metrics.</br>
Here it ust points at prometheus container.
`datasource.yml`
```yml
apiVersion: 1
datasources:
- name: Prometheus
type: prometheus
access: proxy
orgId: 1
url: http://prometheus:9090
basicAuth: false
isDefault: true
editable: false
```
#### dashboard.yml
* grafana/provisioning/dashboards/**dashboard.yml**
* [official documentation](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/administration/provisioning/#dashboards)
Config file telling grafana from where to load dashboards.
`dashboard.yml`
```yml
apiVersion: 1
providers:
- name: 'Prometheus'
orgId: 1
folder: ''
type: file
disableDeletion: false
editable: false
allowUiUpdates: false
options:
path: /etc/grafana/provisioning/dashboards
```
#### \<dashboards>.json
* grafana/provisioning/dashboards/**<dashboards.json>**
* [official documentation](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/reference/dashboard/)
In [the dashboards](https://github.com/DoTheEvo/selfhosted-apps-docker/tree/master/prometheus_grafana/dashboards)
directory of this repository.
Preconfigured dashboards from the prodigious
[stefanprodan/dockprom](https://github.com/stefanprodan/dockprom).</br>
Mostly unchanged, except for the default time range shown changed from 15min to 1 hour,
and [a fix](https://github.com/stefanprodan/dockprom/issues/18#issuecomment-487023049)
for host network monitoring not showing traffick.
* **docker_host.json** - dashboard showing linux host metrics
* **docker_containers.json** - dashboard showing docker containers metrics,
except the ones labeled as `monitoring` in the compose file
* **monitoring_services.json** - dashboar showing docker containers metrics
of containers that are labeled `monitoring`
# Reverse proxy
Caddy v2 is used, details
[here](https://github.com/DoTheEvo/selfhosted-apps-docker/tree/master/caddy_v2).</br>
The setup is accessed through grafana.
But occasionally there might be need to check with prometheus,
which will be available on \<docker-host-ip>:9090.
`Caddyfile`
```
grafana.{$MY_DOMAIN} {
reverse_proxy grafana:3000
}
:9090 {
reverse_proxy prometheus:9090
}
```
*Extra info:* `:9000` is short notation for `localhost:9000`

# Update
* [watchtower](https://github.com/DoTheEvo/selfhosted-apps-docker/tree/master/watchtower) updates the image automaticly
* manual image update</br>
`docker-compose pull`</br>
`docker-compose up -d`</br>
`docker image prune`
# Backup and restore
* **backup** using [borgbackup setup](https://github.com/DoTheEvo/selfhosted-apps-docker/tree/master/borg_backup)
that makes daily snapshot of the entire directory
* **restore**</br>
down the containers `docker-compose down`</br>
delete the entire prometheus directory</br>
from the backup copy back the prometheus directortory</br>
start the container `docker-compose up -d`
