Configure prometheus.yml file

[kenjoo]

Hi,

What is the "cloudron"/proper way of configuring the prometheus.yml file? I am trying to set up prometheus to collect some data on my server. I have installed the prometheus app and also installed a node-exporter in the root folder of my server listening to the port 9100. Next I would need to configure the prometheus app such that it will scrape from the 9100 port I created.

I tried using the app -> config -> terminal/file manager option but found out that the file is read only.

Any hints or pointers would be great!

Thanks!

For me the file is writable using the procedure.

The alternative would be to open a terminal and navigate to /app/data/config and then use nano or vi to modify the file.

@fbartels it works, thanks!
