## Nginx Ingress Controller setup
This configuration and monitors only work for ingress controller version :
- \>= 0.10 because ingress is beta before that and metrics naming convention not stable
- <= 0.15 because ingress does not use VTS metrics since 0.16
Enable the following flags in the Nginx Ingress Controller chart
controller.stats.enabled=true,controller.metrics.enabled=true
and the following Datadog agent configuration for each ingress controller:
```
datadog:
confd:
prometheus.yaml: |-
#nginx_upstream_responses_total{ingress_class,namespace,server,status_code:{1xx,2xx,3xx,4xx,5xx},upstream}
#nginx_upstream_requests_total{ingress_class,namespace,server,upstream}
init_config:
instances:
# The prometheus endpoint to query from
- prometheus_url: http://nginx-ingress-controller-metrics:9913/metrics
# This is NOT the ingress namespace, it is the prefix that will be used for the custom metrics
namespace: nginx-ingress
# Filter on the following metrics only
metrics:
- "nginx_upstream_requests_total"
- "nginx_upstream_responses_total"
# Adapt the tags to the current convention and verify that the monitor will match
tags:
- dd_monitoring:enabled
- dd_ingress:enabled
- dd_ingress_class:nginx
- env:ENV
```
