We just ran into the issue of two secrets containing the same filename and it took us forever to figure out that this was the reason why one of the data sources wasn't showing up in Grafana.
I think the
sidecar.enableUniqueFilenames
description could be clearer on what its effect is. I added a suggestion based on thekiwigrid/k8s-sidecar
documentation of the environment variable.I think enabling unique filenames by default would also make sense. We found the behavior of silently overwriting the files very confusing and if unique filenames were enabled by default we wouldn't even have run into the problem. Are there any reasons to keep it disabled?
