Pyroscope configuration parameters

You can configure Pyroscope by using a YAML file or via command-line flags that represent configuration parameters. To specify the YAML file, use the -config.file command-line option. If you specify both the command-line flags and YAML configuration parameters, the command-line flags take precedence over values in a YAML file.

To see the current configuration of any component, go to the /config HTTP API endpoint. Passwords are filtered out of this endpoint.

Parameters are written in YAML format, and brackets indicate that a parameter is optional.

Generic placeholders

  • <boolean>: a boolean that can take the values true or false
  • <int>: any integer matching the regular expression [1-9]+[0-9]*
  • <duration>: a duration matching the regular expression [0-9]+(ns|us|µs|ms|s|m|h|d|w|y) where y = 365 days
  • <string>: a string
  • <url>: a URL
  • <filepath>: a string containing an absolute or relative path and filename to a file on disk
  • <prefix>: a CLI flag prefix based on the context (look at the parent configuration block to see which CLI flags prefix should be used)
  • <relabel_config>: a Prometheus relabeling configuration
  • <time>: a timestamp, with available formats:
    • 2006-01-20 (midnight, local timezone)
    • 2006-01-20T15:04 (local timezone)
    • RFC 3339 formats: 2006-01-20T15:04:05Z (UTC) or 2006-01-20T15:04:05+07:00 (explicit timezone)

Use environment variables in the configuration

You can use environment variable references in the YAML configuration file to set values that need to be configurable during deployment. To do this, pass -config.expand-env=true on the command line and use ${VAR}, where VAR is the name of the environment variable.

Each variable reference is replaced at startup by the value of the environment variable. The replacement is case-sensitive and occurs before the YAML file is parsed. References to undefined variables are replaced by empty strings unless you specify a default value or custom error text.

To specify a default value, use ${VAR:-default_value}, where default_value is the value to use if the environment variable is undefined.
