Dashboard/Metrics info documentation

[2020testuser]

Hi, I'm looking for documentation to view the chaos pod delete report either in text form or in a dashboard/metrics form. Could you please let me know what args I need to pass and how to use it? Thanks!

There's a counter of the number of deleted pods exposed via Prometheus under http://localhost:8080/metrics by default or use the --metrics-address flag.

The metric is called chaoskube_pods_deleted_total.

You can find other metrics listed here.

@linki - Thanks! I've chaoskube deployed using your sample Deployment (with some tweaks) in my Kubernetes cluster. Could you please let me know how I can see the metrics?

In your url - http://localhost:8080/metrics, I replaced localhost with my <hostName> and it didn't display the metrics. Do I need to perform any additional step? Sorry. I'm using chaoskube for the first time and so not clear. Thanks!

No, if you use the Pod IP instead of localhost it should show you something.

Where do you run the curl command from?

@linki - Thanks Much! I want to run the curl command from my script which I use for chaos test. Basically, I want to use the curl command to start chaoskube and pass the arguments to kill the pods. It would be very helpful if you could provide details.

Thanks!
