Instructions for setting up vivo exporter plugin is not clear

I want to setup Fluent Bit + Vivo exporter plugin in Kubernetes. My goal is to query logs from the Vivo exporter endpoint.
The Vivo exporter document states that "this plugin aims to be used in conjunction with Vivo project".
So I installed Vivo in addition to Fluent Bit. But when I checked the Vivo project deployment, I noticed that it also deploys a Fluent Bit instance. Therefore would installing only Vivo be enough?
The configuration for Fluent Bit running within Vivo is copied to the Docker image at build time - https://github.com/calyptia/vivo/blob/1f6c929b93fcc69a6d05a0b4ca38ef7db6480acf/service/Dockerfile#L23
Therefore to use the configuration in https://docs.fluentbit.io/manual/pipeline/outputs/vivo-exporter#getting-started, do we need to rebuild the vivo Docker image? Or can we configure the Fluent Bit deployement runing outside of Vivo?
https://github.com/calyptia/vivo/blob/master/vivo-deployment.yaml may be useful but there are a few things still to resolve, it needs to proxy via localhost to get data so will not work without port-forwarding locally:
kubectl port-forward svc/calyptia-vivo 8000:8000 2025:2025
