Thanos Docker Compose

Run a basic Thanos setup for local development using Docker and Docker Compose.

Prerequisites

You need to have Docker and docker-compose installed on your machine.
We use GNU Make to run common tasks, you need to have make installed on your machine. You can run make -v to check if it is already installed.
Thanos source code. The easiest way to achieve this is by cloning the Thanos git repository locally using git clone https://github.com/thanos-io/thanos.
You need to have Go installed as it is required to build Thanos.
Modify the THANOS_SOURCE variable in the Makefile so that it points to the directory containing Thanos source code. This step is required to build thanos binary from this directory.

Usage

Start the dev environment

Run make up

NOTE: If you are using MacOS, run GOOS=linux make up. This target tries to build the binary by running make build inside the $THANOS_SOURCE directory defined in the Makefile, and then gets the thanos binary from $GOPATH/bin/thanos. You need to set up the THANOS_SOURCE variable for this to work.

Stop the dev environment

Run make down

Restarting the env with changes

We need to build the thanos binary again in case of changes in source code, just run make up to restart the containers with new changes, it takes care of building the binary for you.
If you want to skip building the binary, and just restart the docker containers (for example when you are testing different flags), you can run make restart to restart the containers.

Checking status of containers

You can run docker-compose ps to list all containers running.
Run docker-compose logs <container-name> to view logs for a container.

Refer to docker-compose documentation for a full overview.

Connecting to minio

After running make up you would be able to access minio at http://localhost:9000. The access key is myaccesskey and the secret key is mysecretkey.

What does it start?

Service		Ports
prometheus_one	The first Prometheus server	9001
prometheus_two	The second Prometheus server
minio	A minio instance serving as Object Storage for store, compactor and sidecars	9000
thanos_sidecar_one	First Thanos sidecar for prometheus_one
thanos_sidecar_two	Second Thanos sidecar for prometheus_two
thanos_querier	Thanos querier instance connected to both sidecars and Thanos store	10902
thanos_query_frontend	Thanos query frontend connected to querier	19090
thanos_compactor	Thanos compactor running with `--wait` and `--wait-interval=3m`	10922
thanos_store	A Thanos store instance connected to minio	10912

Optional services

There are some services which are commented out in the docker-compose.yml. You can uncomment and use them if needed.

Service		Ports
grafana	A Grafana instance with username = admin, and password = admin	3000
bucket_web	Thanos Bucket Inspector WebUI	8080
debug	A debug container running on ubuntu with `thanos` binary. You can use this to debug services from inside	10902
alertmanager	Prometheus Alertmanager to send alerts	9093
thanos_rule	Thanos Rule instance to create recording and alerting rules	10932

You can start a debug container and/or Thanos Bucket WebUI by uncommenting the corresponding definition in docker-compose.yml.

For Alertmanager to work, you need to set the Slack webhook URL in prometheus/alertmanager.yml.
