DockerForRocksetMetrics

A simple docker container to run Prometheus and Grafana to access your Rockset REST metrics endpoint!

Assumptions

The assumption is that you have Docker[https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop/] installed.

Steps

Step 1. Download this dockerfile and save it in a directory. Edit your dockerfile as you see fit (e.g. this one is geared towards Macbook silicon with FROM arm64v8/ubuntu:latest).
-> dockerfile source code

Step 2.
Navigate to that directory
cd <wherever your dockerfile is>

Step 3.
Build the container.
Remember to replace your REGION and APIKEY accordingly.
docker build --build-arg REGION=usw2a1 --build-arg APIKEY=yourRocksetAPIkeyhere -t grafana-prometheus .

Step 4.
Run the container
docker run -p 9090:9090 -p 3000:3000 grafana-prometheus

Step 5.
Access prometheus and grafana
Prometheus - running on http://localhost:9090/
Grafana - running on http://localhost:3000/

Interactive Mode

If you have trouble getting prometheus to run, you can always use interactive mode to debug it.
At the end of your dockerfile do this instead of the provided CMD
CMD /bin/bash

Build the file (same build steps above) and run it in interactive mode
docker run -it -p 9090:9090 -p 3000:3000 grafana-prometheus

you can run these programs to troubleshoot them locally like looking at promethus config
e.g. /opt/prometheus/prometheus.yml

prometheus --config.file=/opt/prometheus/prometheus.yml --storage.tsdb.path=/opt/prometheus/data

grafana-server --homepath=/opt/grafana

Now you can have fun!
