Bucket #
The bucket component of Thanos is a set of commands to inspect data in object storage buckets. It is normally run as a stand alone command to aid with troubleshooting.
Example:
$ thanos bucket verify --objstore.config-file=bucket.yml
The content of bucket.yml:
type: GCS
config:
bucket: example-bucket
Bucket can be extended to add more subcommands that will be helpful when working with object storage buckets by adding a new command within /cmd/thanos/bucket.go
Deployment #
Flags #
usage: thanos bucket [<flags>] <command> [<args> ...]
Bucket utility commands
Flags:
-h, --help Show context-sensitive help (also try --help-long and
--help-man).
--version Show application version.
--log.level=info Log filtering level.
--log.format=logfmt Log format to use.
--tracing.config-file=<tracing.config-yaml-path>
Path to YAML file that contains tracing
configuration.
--tracing.config=<tracing.config-yaml>

Subcommands:
bucket verify [<flags>]
Verify all blocks in the bucket against specified issues
bucket ls [<flags>]
List all blocks in the bucket
bucket inspect [<flags>]

bucket web [<flags>]
Web interface for remote storage bucket
Web #
bucket web is used to inspect bucket blocks in form of interactive web UI.
This will start local webserver that will periodically update the view with given refresh.
Example:
$ thanos bucket web --objstore.config-file="..."
usage: thanos bucket web [<flags>]
Web interface for remote storage bucket
Flags:

and --help-man).
--version Show application version.
--log.level=info Log filtering level.
--log.format=logfmt Log format to use.
--tracing.config-file=<tracing.config-yaml-path>
Path to YAML file that contains tracing
configuration.
--tracing.config=<tracing.config-yaml>
Alternative to 'tracing.config-file' flag.
Tracing configuration in YAML.
--objstore.config-file=<bucket.config-yaml-path>
Path to YAML file that contains object store
configuration.
--objstore.config=<bucket.config-yaml>
Alternative to 'objstore.config-file' flag.
Object store configuration in YAML.
--listen="0.0.0.0:8080" HTTP host:port to listen on
--refresh=30m Refresh interval to download metadata from remote
storage
--timeout=5m Timeout to download metadata from remote storage
--label=LABEL Prometheus label to use as timeline title

repair logic to backup blocks before removal.
-r, --repair Attempt to repair blocks for which issues were
detected

Issues to verify (and optionally repair). Possible
values: [duplicated_compaction index_issue
overlapped_blocks]
--id-whitelist=ID-WHITELIST ...
Block IDs to verify (and optionally repair) only. If
none is specified, all blocks will be verified.
Repeated field
ls #

Example:
$ thanos bucket ls -o json --objstore.config-file="..."
usage: thanos bucket ls [<flags>]
List all blocks in the bucket
Flags:
-h, --help Show context-sensitive help (also try --help-long and
