promeval

promeval is a small CLI tool that allows to test your scrape configuration before attaching it to the Prometheus instance.

Setup

setup your $GOPATH
add $GOPATH/bin to your $PATH
get tool:

go get github.com/Bplotka/promeval
make install-tools
dep ensure
make build

Hardest part:

If you want to run promeval on your local machine you need to "reproduce" setup you have on your Prometheus instance to have proper results.

For example for Kubernetes default SD config you need:

KUBERNETES_SERVICE_HOST env variable
KUBERNETES_SERVICE_PORT env variable
/var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/token
/var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/ca.crt

All of this depends on your Prometheus scraping configuration.

Tool should print properly what is missing in case of missing configuration against certain service discoveries.

Usage

Targets

targets command allows you to print all discovered jobs after and before relabel. You can use --job and --source flags that print only certain sources/jobs.

For example: ./promeval targets prometheus_config.yaml --job=kubernetes-pods --source=pod/default/service

will evaluate given prometheus config and print labels that will be used for Kubernetes pod running in default namespace called "service". E.g:

{
	"job_name": "kubernetes-pods",
	"source": "pod/default/service",
	"before": {
		"__address__": "...,
		"__meta_kubernetes_namespace": "default",
		"__meta_kubernetes_pod_annotation_kubernetes_io_created_by": "{\"kind\":\"SerializedReference\",\"apiVersion\":\"v1\",\"reference\":{\"kind\":\"StatefulSet\",\"namespace\":\"default\",\...",
		"__meta_kubernetes_pod_annotation_pod_alpha_kubernetes_io_initialized": "true",
		"__meta_kubernetes_pod_annotation_pod_beta_kubernetes_io_hostname": "...",
		"__meta_kubernetes_pod_annotation_pod_beta_kubernetes_io_subdomain": "...",
		"__meta_kubernetes_pod_annotation_prometheus_io_path": "/metrics",
		"__meta_kubernetes_pod_annotation_prometheus_io_scheme": "http",
		"__meta_kubernetes_pod_container_name": "service",
		"__meta_kubernetes_pod_container_port_name": "http",
		"__meta_kubernetes_pod_container_port_number": "...",
		"__meta_kubernetes_pod_container_port_protocol": "TCP",
		"__meta_kubernetes_pod_host_ip": "....",
		"__meta_kubernetes_pod_ip": "...",
		"__meta_kubernetes_pod_label_component": "service",
		"__meta_kubernetes_pod_name": "...",
		"__meta_kubernetes_pod_node_name": "....",
		"__meta_kubernetes_pod_ready": "true",
		"__metrics_path__": "/metrics",
		"__scheme__": "http",
		"job": "kubernetes-pods"
	},
	"after": {
		"__address__": "....",
		"__metrics_path__": "/metrics",
		"__scheme__": "http",
		<all resulted label from your relabel process>
	}
},

NOTE: It is useful to actually print all before narrowing that to job and source to know exact name for source (: It is not straightforward and depends on your job.

Alternatively you can specify prometheus config from Kubernetes configmap directly (named with the key "prometheus.yaml"):

./promeval targets configmap.yaml --configmap-item=prometheus.yaml --job=kubernetes-pods --source=pod/default/service

relabel

WIP: Basic idea is to feed labels that you are interested in manually and do relabel on it using given relabeling from your config.
