Environment variables in prometheus.yml file

[daniel.la...@gmail.com]

Hi!

Is there any way to get an environment variable and use it in the prometheus.yml file?

For example, i have the env variable IP_ADDRESS and i want to use it like an endpoint in my job target like this:

- job_name: 'foo'
target_groups:
- targets: ['IP_ADDRESS:8080']

Thanks in advance!

Not directly, but you could use a tool such as sed to alter the config file:

sed -i '' -e "s/IP_ADDRESS/$IP_ADDRESS/" prometheus.yml
