Prometheus with Basic Auth

[benjaminguttmann-avtq]

Currently Promlens does not support if Prometheus is protected via basic auth, would be great if that could be added.

+1. Would love to see either Basic Auth working with PromLens or PromLens incorporated into the Prometheus Web UI as an additional option.

Hey, same issue here!

I am hosting PromLens on Kubernetes and I used a workaround this way:

• Promlens is hosted in same namespace than Prometheus
• I declared two ingress ressources:

1. One to Promlens service
2. Another one, on same hostname, which is a proxy to prometheus service. This way, prometheus api is served on same hostname and on prefix: /prometheus

apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  annotations:
    nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-url: http://nginx-ldap-auth.kube-system.svc.cluster.local:5555 # our basic-auth system
  name: promlens
  namespace: monitoring
spec:
  ingressClassName: ingress-private
  rules:
  - host: promlens.myfqdn
    http:
      paths:
      - backend:
          service:
            name: promlens
            port:
              number: 8080
        path: /
        pathType: Prefix

apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  annotations:
    nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-url: http://nginx-ldap-auth.kube-system.svc.cluster.local:5555
    nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/rewrite-target: /$2
  name: promlens-to-prometheus
  namespace: monitoring
spec:
  ingressClassName: ingress-private
  rules:
  - host: promlens.myfqdn
    http:
      paths:
      - backend:
          service:
            name: prometheus-prometheus
            port:
              number: 9090
        path: /prometheus(/|$)(.*)
        pathType: Prefix

Thanks for this awesome tool! :)

I just found another nice workaround. Just use --grafana.url. Then Grafana will handle basic auth. PromLens even says this in the logs:

promlens_1  | 2023/01/31 18:27:46 Proxying to Grafana at /api/datasources/proxy/92/api/v1/query...

Cheers :)

I have a grafana behind TLS but SSL certificate is not valid. Is there a way to disable it ?

tls_skip_verify_insecure maybe ? but where.

I added support for Basic Auth in this Fork (https://github.com/glidea/promlens), and a 'datasource' manager (https://github.com/glidea/promlens-datasource-manager)

Is there a Docker image that can be used,thanks
