traefik metrics disabled by default ?

[jeanpommier]

Hi,
I was pretty much certain that the Traefik metrics were available by default, for scrape by prometheus. But apparently, they are not

It seems like a pity, to me. Is there an easy way to enable them ?
Thanks

You can customize the bundled Traefik by deploying a HelmChartConfig:

apiVersion: helm.cattle.io/v1
kind: HelmChartConfig
metadata:
  name: traefik
  namespace: kube-system
spec:
  valuesContent: |-
    additionalArguments:
      - '--metrics.prometheus=true'
      - '--metrics.prometheus.entryPoint=metrics'
    ports:
      metrics:
        port: 8082

See https://rancher.com/docs/k3s/latest/en/helm/#customizing-packaged-components-with-helmchartconfig
