# Prometheus homelab monitoring stack
|
|
|
|
## Server components:
|
|
- Prometheus
|
|
- Grafana
|
|
- Grafana Loki
|
|
- Prometheus
|
|
- Prometheus-snmp-exporter
|
|
- Grafana-matrix-forwarder
|
|
|
|
## Configured client components:
|
|
- Promtail
|
|
- Node exporter
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Todo:
|
|
|
|
- Split nixos config into several files
|
|
- Replace grafana-matrix-forwarder with something sensible
|
|
- Move secrets
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
- Copy/symlink `var_prometheus` to `/var/prometheus`
|
|
- Create the file /var/prometheus/GRAFANASECRETS (If using matrix)
|
|
- Move `prometheus.nix` somewhere sensible and include it in your `configuration.nix`
|
|
- Enable nginx in your configuration
|
|
|
|
### Forwarding alerts to matrix
|
|
|
|
Grafana prefers to push alerts using webhooks. Matrix does not have builtin-support for this. I want to move to [Matrix-Webhook](https://matrix.org/docs/projects/bot/matrix-webhook/), but for now I am using [Grafana to matrix forwarder](https://gitlab.com/hectorjsmith/grafana-matrix-forwarder).
|
|
|
|
Create the file `/var/prometheus/GRAFANASECRETS` and populate it with `MATRIX_USER`, `MATRIX_PASSWORD` and `MATRIX_HOMESERVER`. Note that these "secrets" will be visible in your nix store and even in your systemd service.
