feat(helm): Add configurable prometheus metrics annotation sup (#60) (#64)
## Description This PR adds comprehensive Prometheus metrics scraping support to the DotCMS Helm chart, enabling automated discovery and monitoring of DotCMS pods by Prometheus. The implementation provides full configurability while maintaining backward compatibility. ## Changes ### 📊 Prometheus Configuration (`values.yaml`) - [ ] Added new `prometheus` configuration section with full control over scraping behavior - [ ] Configurable scrape annotations: `scrape`, `port`, and `path` - [ ] Default values: `scrape: "true"`, `port: "8090"`, `path: "/dotmgt/metrics"` - [ ] Feature can be completely disabled via `prometheus.enabled: false` ### 🏷️ Pod Annotations (`statefulset.yaml`) - [ ] Conditional Prometheus annotations added to StatefulSet pod template - [ ] Annotations only applied when `prometheus.enabled: true` - [ ] Standard Prometheus discovery annotations: `prometheus.io/scrape`, `prometheus.io/port`, `prometheus.io/path` ### 🔧 Helper Functions (`_helpers.tpl`) - [ ] Created reusable `dotcms.version` helper function for consistent version handling - [ ] Special case handling: `"1.0.0-SNAPSHOT"` → `"SNAPSHOT"` for cleaner version labels - [ ] Extended environment variable rendering to support Kubernetes downward API via `FIELD:` prefix - [ ] Enhanced secret and field reference handling in environment variable processing ### 🏃‍♂️ Environment Variables for Metrics Tagging When Prometheus is enabled, the following environment variables are automatically injected for consistent metric labeling: - [ ] `DOT_METRICS_TAG_APP` - Application name (e.g., "dotcms") - [ ] `DOT_METRICS_TAG_ENV` - Environment name (e.g., "prod") - [ ] `DOT_METRICS_TAG_VER` - Version tag (truncated, e.g., "21.06.14" or "SNAPSHOT") - [ ] `DOT_METRICS_TAG_CUST` - Customer name (e.g., "dotcms-dev") - [ ] `DOT_METRICS_TAG_FULLNAME` - Full deployment name (e.g., "dotcms-dotcms-dev-prod") - [ ] `DOT_METRICS_TAG_HOSTNAME` - Pod hostname with StatefulSet index via Kubernetes downward API ### 🔄 Kubernetes Integration - [ ] Hostname environment variable uses proper Kubernetes downward API (`valueFrom.fieldRef.fieldPath: "metadata.name"`) - [ ] Provides actual pod names like `dotcms-dotcms-dev-prod-0`, `dotcms-dotcms-dev-prod-1` for StatefulSet replica identification - [ ] Compatible with Kubernetes service discovery patterns ## Testing - [ ] ✅ Validated Helm template rendering with Prometheus enabled/disabled - [ ] ✅ Confirmed annotations appear only when `prometheus.enabled: true` - [ ] ✅ Verified environment variables render correctly with proper values - [ ] ✅ Tested custom annotation values override defaults properly - [ ] ✅ Validated version helper function handles both regular tags and SNAPSHOT case - [ ] ✅ Confirmed downward API field reference syntax for hostname ### Example Usage **Enable with defaults:** ```yaml prometheus: enabled: true ``` **Custom configuration:** ```yaml prometheus: enabled: true annotations: scrape: "false" port: "9090" path: "/custom/metrics" ``` **Disable entirely:** ```yaml prometheus: enabled: false ``` ## Impact - **Zero breaking changes** - Feature is opt-in and disabled by default - **Enhanced observability** - Enables automated Prometheus monitoring of DotCMS deployments - **Flexible configuration** - All aspects of metrics scraping are customizable - **StatefulSet friendly** - Proper hostname tagging for replica identification - **Consistent labeling** - Standardized environment variables for metric consistency across deployments Closes #60 **Issue:** Add configurable prometheus metrics annotation support to helm chart --------- Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
