Ansible Role: Kubernetes Kube-Prometheus

This role installs the kube-prometheus project on a Kubernetes cluster.

Requirements

You need a working Kubernetes (K8s) cluster that runs version 1.22 or higher. Older versions might work, but we haven't tested them.

go_version: 1.20.1

The kube-prometheus role has these variables:

# Directory where kube-prometheus will be installed. Default is /opt/kube-prometheus
prometheus_bin: "/opt/kube-prometheus"

# Set up nginx ingress controller
config_ingress: "yes"

# Version of kube-prometheus to install
release_tag: v0.12.0

# Version of jb to install
jb_release: release-0.7

# Kubernetes namespace for kube-prometheus installation
