Grafana Loki

[doodlemania2]

Loki is a horizontally-scalable, highly-available, multi-tenant log aggregation system inspired by Prometheus. It is designed to be very cost effective and easy to operate. It does not index the contents of the logs, but rather a set of labels for each log stream.

Initial functional version located here for comment: https://git.cloudron.io/doodlemania2/loki

@doodlemania2 FWIW here's another implementation of it. Wish I had seen your post first

@olearycrew
If this is ready for testing.. it may be ready for @staff to add to the store..

[doodlemania2]

@robi I've been using it as posted for over a year works like a champ.

@doodlemania2 does the app have any UI? After login, it simply says "not found" . Is that expected?

[girish]

I get the same behavior with @olearycrew 's repo as well.

[doodlemania2]

@girish correct - no UX at all - just an open port.
For the official version, you could easily add a static page that shows it is up and running and instructions on how to get at it.

[girish]

@doodlemania2 Do you know how to put a place holder page? As in, is it something upstream Loki supports or we have to put some nginx proxy of sorts in the package?

[doodlemania2]

@girish figured it would be just like we did with the vpn package, nothing upstream really.

I also got Promtail which is part of this stack working as well: https://gitlab.com/liscioapps/promtail-cloudron.

Also yes, it's really a service that is used as part of a stack with Grafana and Prometheus.

Similar to the "ELK" stack where logstash (promtail) pushes to Elasticsearch (Loki) but it's all actually visualized in Kibana (Grafana). That's not an exact map but sort of that way.
