# Prometheus Monitoring Mixin for CoreDNS
[![CircleCI](https://circleci.com/gh/povilasv/coredns-mixin/tree/master.svg?style=shield)](https://circleci.com/gh/povilasv/coredns-mixin)

A set of Grafana dashboards & Prometheus alerts for CoreDNS.

## How to use

This mixin is designed to be vendored into the repo with your infrastructure config.
To do this, use [jsonnet-bundler](https://github.com/jsonnet-bundler/jsonnet-bundler):

## Generate config files

You can manually generate the alerts, dashboards and rules files, but first you
must install some tools:

```
$ go get github.com/jsonnet-bundler/jsonnet-bundler/cmd/jb
$ brew install jsonnet
```

Then, grab the mixin and its dependencies:

```
$ git clone https://github.com/povilasv/coredns-mixin
$ cd coredns-mixin
$ jb install
```

Finally, build the mixin:

```
$ make prometheus_alerts.yaml
$ make dashboards_out
```

The `prometheus_alerts.yaml` file then need to passed
to your Prometheus server, and the files in `dashboards_out` need to be imported
into you Grafana server. The exact details will depending on how you deploy your
monitoring stack.
