Can get fluxcd install podmonitor/serviceMonitor to get scraping from prometheus

[bmillemathias]

Hi,

I installed fluxcd into a brand new cluster using the bootstrap gitlabl, then with it I've installed kube-prometheus-stack helm and loki. Now I'd like to get fluxcd servicemonitor deployed so I can monitor it.

Quite surprising because https://fluxcd.io/flux/monitoring/metrics/ deals with monitoring but does not mention the steps required to be able to monitor flux.

How can I do ? I did not see flux install was able to do that.

Best

I eventually created podmonitor (see below) but I would expect fluxcd to be able to install this after prometheus-operator is installed.

apiVersion: monitoring.coreos.com/v1
kind: PodMonitor
metadata:
  name: helm-controller
  namespace: flux-system
  labels:
    app: helm-controller
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: helm-controller
  podMetricsEndpoints:
    - port: http-prom

You can put this PodMonitor into a Kustomization with a depedency on a kustomization that installs the kube-prometheus-stack.
