evns/rpi-prometheus repository overview

⁠Prometheus for Raspberry Pi

This is a build of Prometheus 2 for the Raspberry Pi.

Docker images for this build can be found here https://hub.docker.com/r/evns/rpi-prometheus⁠

The source can be found here: https://github.com/evnsio/rpi-prometheus⁠

⁠Build details

I'm building the code from source in a multi-stage Docker build. I've tried to keep the structure of the resulting image similar to the Dockerfile⁠ in the Prometheus Repo.

I had issues getting the build to work due to the promu make target not accounting for arm64 architecture. This is a known issue, tracked here⁠. To workaround I've grabbed the promu binary separately, added it to the image through Docker build step, and removed the call to promu from the build target.

⁠Usage

As the image is similar in structure, you can follow the Installation Instructions⁠ provided by Prometheus.

The simplest way to run with your own config is to mount it into the container alongside the prometheus binary:

docker run -d -p 9090:9090 \
           -v /path/to/prometheus.yml:/bin/prometheus.yml \
           evns/rpi-prometheus:v2.1.0

Alternatively, mount wherever you like and pass in the args:

docker run -d -p 9090:9090 \
           -v /path/to/prometheus.yml:/prometheus-data/prometheus.yml \
           evns/rpi-prometheus --config.file=/prometheus-data/prometheus.yml
