I want to monitor my MongoDb with prometheus. I currently have my MongoDb deployed like this
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
name: mongodb-deployment
labels:
app: mongodb
spec:
replicas: 1
selector:
matchLabels:
app: mongodb
template:
metadata:
labels:
app: mongodb
spec:
containers:
- name: mongodb
image: mongo
ports:
- containerPort: 27017
env:
# These variables, used in conjunction, create a new user and set that user's password (From Mongo Docker Image)
- name: MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: mongodb-secret
key: mongo-root-username
- name: MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD
valueFrom:
secretKeyRef:
name: mongodb-secret
key: mongo-root-password
and this service
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
name: mongodb-service
spec:
selector:
app: mongodb
ports:
- protocol: TCP
port: 27017
targetPort: 27017
And I installed prometheus via helm
helm install stable/prometheus-operator
I know about this MongoDb Helm chart https://github.com/prometheus-community/helm-charts/tree/main/charts/prometheus-mongodb-exporter. But to my understanding, this installs MongoDb and the MongoDb Exporter, so because I have MongoDb already setup, this is of no use for me, right?
What are the steps to install only the Mongo Exporter and connect it with my Mongo Database? All I know is, I need to create a ServiceMonitor that has a label of release: prometheus-operator-1602753506.
Sorry for this beginner question, I'm still very new to kubernetes and helm, so I'm quite confused at this point
