prometheus/web/ui

The ui directory contains static files and templates used in the web UI. For easier distribution they are statically compiled into the Prometheus binary using the vfsgen library (c.f. Makefile).

During development it is more convenient to always use the files on disk to directly see changes without recompiling. To make this work, add -tags dev to the flags entry in .promu.yml, and then make build.

This will serve all files from your local filesystem. This is for development purposes only.

After making changes to any file, run make assets before committing to update the generated inline version of the file.
