Documentation Grafana Agent Cookbook Dynamic Configuration Querying AWS

01 AWS

The AWS datasource assumes that you have appropriate credentials and environment variables set to access AWS resources. The custom fork of gomplate adds a new command to the existing AWS commands.

Unfortunately there is not a specific docker command but generic examples are below.

Looping

agent-1.yml

server:
  log_level: debug
metrics:
  wal_directory: /tmp/grafana-agent-normal
  global:
    scrape_interval: 60s
    remote_write:
      - url: https://prometheus-us-central1.grafana.net/api/prom/push
        basic_auth:
          username: xyz
          password: secretpassword
  configs:
    - name: default
      scrape_configs:
      {{ range $index , $value := aws.EC2Query "tag:service=webhost" -}}
      - job_name: {{ $value.InstanceId }}
        static_configs:
          - targets:
              - {{ $value.PrivateDnsName }}
        {{ end -}}

The aws.EC2Query command is a new command added for Grafana Agent and takes a string in the DescribeInstances format
