CLI Args

Various operations aspects can be set in the command line. To adjust Prometheus command line options, edit /app/data/env.sh using the File manager and adjust cli_options variable as needed. For example:

` export cli_options="--storage.tsdb.retention.time=25d --storage.tsdb.path=/app/data/storage"

Be sure to restart the app after making any changes.

Custom Config

Custom config can be added in /app/data/config/prometheus.yml using the File manager.

Be sure to restart the app after making any changes.

Accessing the HTTP API Endpoint

From the official prometheus.io/docs most examples use the URL http://localhost:9090/api/v1/. For the Cloudron app https is used and the port :9090 needs to be left out.

As an example our Prometheus is running at pm.demo.cloudron.io and we want to use Prometheus in Grafana. Then we need to use the full https://pm.demo.cloudron.io URL and basic auth.
