Portainer Config

[mlinko6]

Dear All,

can someone help me out with the portainer stack config? That would be awesome:

version: "3.9"
services:
  influxdb:
    container_name: unifi_poller_influxdb
    image: influxdb:1.8
    ports:
      - 8086:8086
    volumes:
      - /volume1/docker/unifi_poller_influxdb:/var/lib/influxdb
    environment:
      - INFLUXDB_DATA_DIR=/var/lib/influxdb/data
      - INFLUXDB_DATA_WAL_DIR=/var/lib/influxdb/wal
      - INFLUXDB_DATA_META_DIR=/var/lib/influxdb/meta
    networks:
      manual: 
        ipv4_address: 172.18.0.31
    restart: on-failure:5   

unifi-poller:
    image: ghcr.io/unpoller/unpoller:latest
    container_name: unifi_poller
    hostname: unifi_poller
    volumes:
      - /volume1/docker/unifi_poller:/config
    ports:
      - 9130:9130
    environment:
      - UP_INFLUXDB_URL=http://172.18.0.31:8086
      - UP_UNIFI_CONTROLLER_0_USER=unifi_poller
      - UP_UNIFI_CONTROLLER_0_PASS=(unifi_poller_password)
      - UP_UNIFI_CONTROLLER_0_SAVE_ALARMS="true"
      - UP_UNIFI_CONTROLLER_0_SAVE_ANOMALIES="true"
      - UP_UNIFI_CONTROLLER_0_SAVE_DPI="true"
      - UP_UNIFI_CONTROLLER_0_SAVE_EVENTS="true"
      - UP_UNIFI_CONTROLLER_0_SAVE_IDS="true"
      - UP_UNIFI_CONTROLLER_0_SAVE_SITES="true"
      - UP_UNIFI_CONTROLLER_0_URL=https://192.168.1.1:8443
      -UP_POLLER_DEBUG="true"

    networks:
      manual: 
        ipv4_address: 172.18.0.32
    restart: on-failure:5

networks:
  manual:
    external: true

I think that I didn't configure the InfluxDB Part correctly, thank you for your help!

Apparently no one uses the Portainer to configure the containers

Not many do, and you didn't describe a problem you needed help with, so those that don't use portioner aren't sure how to direct you. At first glance, the indentation in your YAML looks very wrong.

Edit: Braindead enough as I wrote this that I completely missed OP wanting help with Influx not Prometheus, which this doesn't really help with.....devs please let me know if you want me to create a separate issue, leave this for posterity, or whatever. Edit by dev: it may stay, thanks!

Just thought I'd post a working Prometheus/Portainer config for you (or maybe for the devs to offer some insight into, or help improve docs, or whatever).

I have just gotten Prometheus going in the last week or so, so I am not going to have much insight beyond what I'm posting here. (Yes, I need to fix permissions and stop running Prometheus as root, as well as a couple other things....but this at least gets a basic "up and running" config).

I'm not sure if it's a weirdness in Portainer, or the documentation is slightly unclear and I was mis-reading it. I kept getting errors about being unable to bind the port in the unpoller log, which would then cause it to throw other errors about accessing the Unifi Controller. What got it working was having a discreet port assignment in the Unpoller stack, while also deleting the http_listen line in up.conf.
