sidecar

Documentation

Overview

Binary sidecar is an example cloudprober probe sidecar. It serves two probe types over the EXTERNAL_GRPC contract:

• "http": stateful — keeps a per-target HTTP client (connection pool) across probe cycles, fetches a URL, and returns extra metrics.
• "tcp": stateless — just dials the target.

Run it, then point cloudprober at it with the config in the parent directory:

go run ./sidecar
cloudprober --config_file=cloudprober.cfg
