Node Observability

The following guide describes the observability capabilities of Towns Stream Nodes and how to monitor and manage them.

Stream nodes expose /metrics to export Prometheus metrics on port 443. The metrics are exposed in the Prometheus format and can be scraped by a Prometheus server. Both process_ and river_ prefixed metrics are exportable.

Below are the required environment variables for the Towns Stream Node Container related to telemetry:

Environment Variable	Value	Secret
METRICS__ENABLED	true	no
LOG__FORMAT	json	no
LOG__LEVEL	info	no
LOG__NOCOLOR	true	no

Log forwarding is under construction.
