This reverts commit 2e9b1efeb9.
Reason for revert: relative links in docs are much harder to maintain in consistent state
comparing to absolute links:
- It is non-trivial to figure out the proper relative link path when creating and editing docs.
- Relative links break after moving the doc files to another paths, and it is non-trivial
to figure which links are broken after that.
- The updated relative links do not work properly right now in the docs.
For example, the https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/quickstart.md#building-from-source-code
link at https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/changelog/ leads to 404 page.
This is documented at https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#images-in-documentation .

To Send data to Vector you need to configure with a Prometheus remote write sink and forward metrics to that sink from at least 1 source.
|
|
You will need to replace the values in `<>` with your to match your setup.
|
|
|
|
## Minimum Config
|
|
```yaml
|
|
sources:
|
|
host_metrics_source:
|
|
type: host_metrics
|
|
sinks:
|
|
victoriametrics_sink:
|
|
type: prometheus_remote_write
|
|
inputs:
|
|
- host_metrics_source
|
|
endpoint: "https://<victoriametrics_url>/api/v1/write"
|
|
healthcheck:
|
|
enabled: false
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Basic Authentication
|
|
|
|
This adds support for basic authentication by defining the auth strategy, user, and password fields:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
sources:
|
|
host_metrics_source:
|
|
type: host_metrics
|
|
sinks:
|
|
victoriametrics_sink:
|
|
type: prometheus_remote_write
|
|
inputs:
|
|
- host_metrics_source
|
|
endpoint: "https://<victoriametrics_url>/api/v1/write"
|
|
auth:
|
|
strategy: "basic"
|
|
user: "<victoriametrics_user"
|
|
password: "<victoriametrics_password>"
|
|
healthcheck:
|
|
enabled: false
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Bearer / Token Authentication
|
|
|
|
This adds support for bearer/token authentication by defining the auth strategy and token fields:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
sources:
|
|
host_metrics_source:
|
|
type: host_metrics
|
|
sinks:
|
|
victoriametrics_sink:
|
|
type: prometheus_remote_write
|
|
inputs:
|
|
- host_metrics_source
|
|
endpoint: "https://<victoriametrics_url>/api/v1/write"
|
|
auth:
|
|
strategy: "bearer"
|
|
token: "<victoriametrics_token>"
|
|
healthcheck:
|
|
enabled: false
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## VictoriaMetrics and VictoriaLogs
|
|
|
|
This combines the Bearer Authentication section with the [VictoriaLogs docs for Vector](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/data-ingestion/vector/),
|
|
so you can send metrics and logs with 1 agent to multiple sources:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
sources:
|
|
host_metrics_source:
|
|
type: host_metrics
|
|
journald_source:
|
|
type: journald
|
|
sinks:
|
|
victoriametrics_sink:
|
|
type: prometheus_remote_write
|
|
inputs:
|
|
- host_metrics_source
|
|
endpoint: "https://<victoriametrics_url>/api/v1/write"
|
|
auth:
|
|
strategy: "bearer"
|
|
token: "<token>"
|
|
healthcheck:
|
|
enabled: false
|
|
victorialogs_sink:
|
|
inputs:
|
|
- journald_source
|
|
type: elasticsearch
|
|
endpoints:
|
|
- "https://<victorialogs_url>/insert/elasticsearch/"
|
|
mode: bulk
|
|
api_version: "v8"
|
|
healthcheck:
|
|
enabled: false
|
|
query:
|
|
_msg_field: "message"
|
|
_time_field: "timestamp"
|
|
_stream_fields: "host,container_name"
|
|
```
