# Docker compose environment for VictoriaMetrics
Docker compose environment for VictoriaMetrics includes VictoriaMetrics components,
[Alertmanager](https://prometheus.io/docs/alerting/latest/alertmanager/)
and [Grafana](https://grafana.com/).
For starting the docker-compose environment ensure you have docker installed and running and access to the Internet.
**All commands should be executed from the root directory of [the repo](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics).**
* [VictoriaMetrics single server](#victoriametrics-single-server)
* [VictoriaMetrics cluster](#victoriametrics-cluster)
* [vmagent](#vmagent)
* [vmauth](#vmauth)
* [vmalert](#vmalert)
* [alertmanager](#alertmanager)
* [Alerts](#alerts)
* [Grafana](#grafana)
* [VictoriaLogs](#victoriaLogs-server)
## VictoriaMetrics single server
To spin-up environment with VictoriaMetrics single server run the following command:
```
make docker-single-up
```
VictoriaMetrics will be accessible on the following ports:
* `--graphiteListenAddr=:2003`
* `--opentsdbListenAddr=:4242`
* `--httpListenAddr=:8428`
The communication scheme between components is the following:
* [vmagent](#vmagent) sends scraped metrics to `single server VictoriaMetrics`;
* [grafana](#grafana) is configured with datasource pointing to `single server VictoriaMetrics`;
* [vmalert](#vmalert) is configured to query `single server VictoriaMetrics` and send alerts state
and recording rules back to it;
* [alertmanager](#alertmanager) is configured to receive notifications from `vmalert`.
<img alt="VictoriaMetrics single-server deployment" width="500" src="assets/vm-single-server.png">
To access Grafana use link [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000).
To access [vmui](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/single-server-victoriametrics/#vmui)
use link [http://localhost:8428/vmui](http://localhost:8428/vmui).
To access `vmalert` use link [http://localhost:8428/vmalert](http://localhost:8428/vmalert/).
To shutdown environment execute the following command:
```
make docker-single-down
```
## VictoriaMetrics cluster
To spin-up environment with VictoriaMetrics cluster run the following command:
```
make docker-cluster-up
```
VictoriaMetrics cluster environment consists of `vminsert`, `vmstorage` and `vmselect` components.
`vminsert` has exposed port `:8480`, access to `vmselect` components goes through `vmauth` on port `:8427`,
and the rest of components are available only inside the environment.
The communication scheme between components is the following:
* [vmagent](#vmagent) sends scraped metrics to `vminsert`;
* `vminsert` forwards data to `vmstorage`;
* `vmselect`s are connected to `vmstorage` for querying data;
* [vmauth](#vmauth) balances incoming read requests among `vmselect`s;
* [grafana](#grafana) is configured with datasource pointing to `vmauth`;
* [vmalert](#vmalert) is configured to query `vmselect`s via `vmauth` and send alerts state
and recording rules to `vminsert`;
* [alertmanager](#alertmanager) is configured to receive notifications from `vmalert`.
<img alt="VictoriaMetrics cluster deployment" width="500" src="assets/vm-cluster.png">
To access Grafana use link [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000).
To access [vmui](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/single-server-victoriametrics/#vmui)
use link [http://localhost:8427/select/0/prometheus/vmui/](http://localhost:8427/select/0/prometheus/vmui/).
To access `vmalert` use link [http://localhost:8427/select/0/prometheus/vmalert/](http://localhost:8427/select/0/prometheus/vmalert/).
To shutdown environment execute the following command:
```
make docker-cluster-down
```
## vmagent
vmagent is used for scraping and pushing time series to VictoriaMetrics instance.
It accepts Prometheus-compatible configuration [prometheus.yml](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/blob/master/deployment/docker/prometheus.yml)
with listed targets for scraping.
[Web interface link](http://localhost:8429/).
## vmauth
[vmauth](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmauth/) acts as a [balancer](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmauth/#load-balancing)
to spread the load across `vmselect`'s. [Grafana](#grafana) and [vmalert](#vmalert) use vmauth for read queries.
vmauth config is available [here](ttps://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/blob/master/deployment/docker/auth-cluster.yml)
## vmalert
vmalert evaluates alerting rules [alerts.yml](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/blob/master/deployment/docker/rules/alerts.yml)
to track VictoriaMetrics health state. It is connected with AlertManager for firing alerts,
and with VictoriaMetrics for executing queries and storing alert's state.
[Web interface link](http://localhost:8880/).
## alertmanager
AlertManager accepts notifications from `vmalert` and fires alerts.
All notifications are blackholed according to [alertmanager.yml](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/blob/master/deployment/docker/alertmanager.yml) config.
[Web interface link](http://localhost:9093/).
## Grafana
To access service open following [link](http://localhost:3000).
Default credential:
* login - `admin`
* password - `admin`
Grafana is provisioned by default with following entities:
* `VictoriaMetrics` datasource
* `VictoriaMetrics - cluster` datasource
* `VictoriaMetrics overview` dashboard
* `VictoriaMetrics - cluster` dashboard
* `VictoriaMetrics - vmagent` dashboard
* `VictoriaMetrics - vmalert` dashboard
Remember to pick `VictoriaMetrics - cluster` datasource when viewing `VictoriaMetrics - cluster` dashboard.
Optionally, environment with [VictoriaMetrics Grafana datasource](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/victoriametrics-datasource)
can be started with the following commands:
```
make docker-single-vm-datasource-up # start single server
make docker-single-vm-datasource-down # shut down single server
make docker-cluster-vm-datasource-up # start cluster
make docker-cluster-vm-datasource-down # shutdown cluster
```

## VictoriaLogs server
To spin-up environment with VictoriaLogs run the following command:
```
make docker-victorialogs-up
```
VictoriaLogs will be accessible on the `--httpListenAddr=:9428` port.
In addition to VictoriaLogs server, the docker compose contains the following componetns:
* [fluentbit](https://docs.fluentbit.io/manual) service for collecting docker logs and sending them to VictoriaLogs;
* VictoriaMetrics single server to collect metrics from `VictoriaLogs` and `fluentbit`;
* [grafana](#grafana) is configured with [VictoriaLogs datasource](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/victorialogs-datasource).
To access Grafana use link [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000).
To access [VictoriaLogs UI](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/querying/#web-ui)
use link [http://localhost:9428/select/vmui](http://localhost:9428/select/vmui).
Please, also see [how to monitor](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/#monitoring)
