Mattermost Community Continuous Profiling

Mattermost community continuous profiling tool is a microservice designed to work as part of a k8s cronjob that runs cpu and memory profiles for Mattermost community (or any other Mattermost installation) and posts in a Mattermost channel.

Environment Variables

The following environment variables need to be exported for the microservice to work:

• UPLOAD_API_URL: This is the API url that should be used for the profiling attachment uploads. For example http://community:8065/api/v4/files. More information on Mattermost files API call can be found here.

• POST_API_URL: This is the API url that should be used for the profiling attachment posts. For example http://community:8065/api/v4/posts. More information on Mattermost posts API call can be found here.

• MATTERMOST_DEPLOYMENTS: The k8s deployments that profiling will be run against their pods. For example community, community-release

• MATTERMOST_NAMESPACE: The namespace of the Mattermost deployments. Each profiling job can run against one namespace only.

• PROFILING_TIME: How long the CPU profiling should run for. For example 30 for 30 seconds.

• CHANNEL_ID: The ID of the channel that the microservice should post the profiles. It is best to keep this in a k8s secret.

• TOKEN: The Token for the Mattermost Bot that will authenticate and upload/post the profile attachments. It is best to keep this in a k8s secret. More information on Mattermost bots can be found here.

• DEVELOPER_MODE(Optional): When set to true local k8s config is used for developing purposes
