I am trying to configure loki-stack using a helm chart to my k8s cluster.

Since my k8s cluster uses CRIO and not docker (which is common nowdays) I need to change the pipeline_stages: config map to use cri: {} instead of docker: {} to parse the logs properly.

How do I change the helm chart so that cri: {} is used by default instead of docker: {} in all the pipeline_stages:? many thanks.

  • Doesn't the most recent version of that chart already use cri by default? github.com/grafana/helm-charts/blob/…

  • for some reason when i deploy the loki-stack helm chart, it deploys it with docker... I did actually try in my requirements.yaml to require the latest version by doing version: "^3.5.0" for promtail and it keeps deploying docker :(

  • @Briansbum, per your comment, i've attempted to deploy loki-stack in a katacoda k8s cluster independently of my own cluster and I can confirm that it used docker: {} instead of cri: {} as well. I think that the helm chart has a snippet using cri but is not actually using it and something needs to be done to make it use cri: {} instead of docker: {}

Reset to default

Managed to solve this by changing the values.yaml in the loki-stack helm chart to the following:

promtail:
  enabled: true
  pipelineStages:
  - cri: {}

Enjoy.
