Unable to expose health_check port from the container

[perry-mitchell]

I can't seem to get the healthcheck port exposed for some reason. I'm creating the release in terraform:

locals {
  collector_version = "0.104.0"
}

resource "helm_release" "opentelemetry-collector" {
  name       = "opentelemetry-collector"
  repository = "https://open-telemetry.github.io/opentelemetry-helm-charts"
  chart      = "opentelemetry-collector"
  version    = local.collector_version
  namespace  = var.namespace
  timeout    = 180
  wait       = true

  values = [yamlencode({
    mode = "deployment"

    replicaCount = 1

    image = {
      repository = "otel/opentelemetry-collector-contrib"
    }

    command = {
      extraArgs = [
        "--feature-gates=-component.UseLocalHostAsDefaultHost"
      ]
    }

    livenessProbe = {
      httpGet = {
        port = 13133
        path = "/health"
      }
    }

    readinessProbe = {
      httpGet = {
        port = 13133
        path = "/health"
      }
    }

    service = {
      enabled = true
    }

    serviceAccount = {
      create = true
      annotations = {
        "eks.amazonaws.com/role-arn" = aws_iam_role.otel_collector.arn
      }
    }

    presets = {}

    config = local.otel_config
  })]
}

Current config:

        health_check         = {
          endpoint = "$${env:MY_POD_IP}:13133"
          path = "/health"
          response_body = {
            healthy = "OK"
          }
        }

(Though I've tried it with no options as well).

Yet it won't expose port 13133:

Looking at the ports configuration in the chart values, there doesn't even seem to be an entry for the healthcheck.

Additionally, the created service for the collector, when enabled, does not expose such a port either.

@perry-mitchell by default the chart doesn't not expose the port on the container. You can see a simple example here: https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-helm-charts/blob/main/charts/opentelemetry-collector/examples/daemonset-only/rendered/daemonset.yaml.

If you need to add a port to the container you can use .Values.ports:

opentelemetry-helm-charts/charts/opentelemetry-collector/values.yaml
