Monitoring Self-Hosted with Docker

This repository provides a Docker Compose setup for running a self-hosted monitoring stack using Prometheus and Grafana.

Features

• Works out of the box: Just configure the .env file and run a start script.
• Pre-configured: Prometheus is set up to scrape itself, and Grafana already has Prometheus added as a data source.
• Ready-to-use Scripts: Includes simple scripts to start, restart, and update the application.
• Persistent Data: Data for both services is stored in local directories to ensure persistence across restarts.

Prerequisites

• Docker and Docker Compose installed.
• A .env file with the required environment variables (you can use the one provided).

Usage

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/AiratTop/monitoring-self-hosted.git
   cd monitoring-self-hosted

2. Create the shared network: This setup uses a shared network to easily connect to other services. If you haven't already, create the network:

   docker network create shared_network

3. Configure the environment: The .env file contains the default admin credentials for Grafana. You can change them if you wish.

4. Start the application:

   docker compose up -d

5. Access the application:

• Prometheus: http://localhost:9090
• Grafana: http://localhost:3000

Usage

The repository includes several scripts to simplify management:

• Start: docker compose up -d
• Restart: ./restart-docker.sh
• Update: ./update-docker.sh (Pulls the latest Docker images and restarts the services)

Services

• prometheus: The Prometheus monitoring server.
• grafana: The Grafana visualization dashboard.
