prometheus + reusable templates

[Luís Martins]

Hi all, I'm currently struggling to use reusable templates on Prometheus alert annotation descriptions.

I'm using prometheus docker image and I've set a custom path in "--web.console.libraries" (e.g. "/path/to/libraries/")
I defined a file (e.g. "/path/to/libraries/alert-mytemplate.lib") with a template:
    {{ define "mytemplate" }}
    ...

    {{ end }}

And added this on some alerts annotations:
    description: "{{ template \"mytemplate\" (args ...) }}"

However in runtime I still get the error that the template is not found whenever the alert is triggered:
    template \"mytemplate\" not defined

I'm trying to follow the instructions in [1][2] but I'm currently blocked, can anyone understand what is it missing here?
