Install on top of existing Prometheus and grafana docker?

[everything13]

I already have Pi-Hole, Prometheus and grafana Dockers running on my Pi as I have a dashboard setup for monitoring the rpi. Is there any way I can set up the internet pi as a separate dashboard within my existing grafana and Prometheus dockers?

Yes, I had the same problem. I think you have a conflict for port 9090 (for prometheus).

I changed the internet-pi's use of 9090 to 9080. For this, I had to perform two changes:

.internet-monitoring/docker-compose.yml Change prometheus port setting from ports: - 9090:9090 to ports: - 9080:9090 This tells docker-compose to expose the containers internal port 9090 to external 9080.

./templates/prometheus.yml.j2 - targets: ['localhost:9090'] to - targets: ['localhost:9080']

You will need to do something similar for grafana too, if your existing docker container uses port 3030 already. But I think it might be only in ./internet-monitoring/docker-compose.yml Change the port 3030 to a port of your choosing:
- 3030:3000

Does this solution result in two Prometheus/Grafana containers running side by side (one standalone, and one part of the Internet Pi)?

I actually came here looking to see if there's a way to incorporate Internet Pi into an existing Grafana/Prometheus service so I just have a single login to see all my dashboards in a single place.

This issue is no longer marked for closure.

Pretty sure it would result in two Prometheus/Grafana containers running side by side.

If you want to add the internet monitoring to your existing Grafan/Prometheus, you would need to get creative and remove the Grafana/Prometheus tasks from the ansible internet-monitoring task (folder tasks). And then add the required configs from the folder templates, internet-monitoring/prometheus, and internet-monitoring/grafana into your existing installs. Plus, you would need to remove prometheus and grafana sections from the docker-compose.yml. And somehow you need to make sure that your existing Prometheus can reach the internet-pi docker containers. So quite a bit of complexity... but not unsolvable.

Thanks!

On further consideration, I think I’ll just let it run with its own Grafana/Prometheus. :)
