prometheus is a monitoring and alerting server that scrapes metrics endpoints,
stores time series data, and exposes a query UI and HTTP API.

Runtime details in Freetz⚓︎

• Binary path: /usr/bin/prometheus
• Runtime dependency profile: self-contained Go binary built with CGO_ENABLED=0
• Externalization: supported for the binary
• Typical storage location: configuration and TSDB data should be placed on writable USB or NAS media

Build notes⚓︎

• The package builds the upstream ./cmd/prometheus server binary.
• Embedded TSDB data can grow quickly, so flash-internal storage is usually a poor fit.

Typical usage⚓︎

prometheus \
  --config.file=/var/media/ftp/uStor01/prometheus/prometheus.yml \
  --storage.tsdb.path=/var/media/ftp/uStor01/prometheus/data

Notes:
- Prometheus is most practical when paired with explicit scrape targets on the LAN.
- Keep retention, WAL, and query load conservative on smaller routers.
