Grafana - Local Port Forwarding into internal service
simon-neto opened this issue · 4 comments
The installation of the helm chart returned the following output:
enable port forward
kubectl port-forward -n mushop-utilities svc/mushop-utils-grafana 3000:80
access grafana via the url:
http://localhost:3000/grafana
but I receive the error message "too many redirects" on the browsers I tested (Firefox, Chrome, Safari).
When using the external load balancer URL from the service mushop-utils-ingress-nginx-controller it works.
I think is just a matter of updating the documentation and the helm chart output.
Can you explain if anything has changed on the connection trough the service?
Previously you would have:
kubectl port forward > workstation > mushop-utils-grafana (ExternalName service) > pod
Now we have
workstation > mushop-utils-ingress-nginx-controller (Load Balancer) > mushop-utils-grafana ( ExternalName service) > pod
That's an old forgotten update to the notes helm. I'll be updating on the next release.
For now, use the command:
kubectl port-forward -n mushop-utilities svc/mushop-utils-ingress-nginx-controller 4000:80This will give you access to the Grafana using http:/localhost:4000/grafana and the Storefront using http://localhost:4000/
The above comment will only work after you deploy the MuShop chart, which creates the ingress.
I've also updated the Grafana configurations to allow the port-forward direct to Grafana from the service, in case need to access even if just deployed the mushop-utilities....
....so the command kubectl port-forward -n mushop-utilities svc/mushop-utils-grafana 3000:80 will also work
Thanks!!! I managed to get it working with the public IP. I just placed the issue to keep record of the documentation in the future.
Thanks Adao
