+# Prometheus
+
+[Prometheus] is a systems and service monitoring system. It collects metrics from configured targets at given intervals, evaluates rule expressions, displays the results, and can trigger alerts when specified conditions are observed.
+
+[Prometheus]: https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus
+
+## Getting Started
+
+```nix
+# In `perSystem.process-compose.<name>`
+{
+  services.prometheus."pro1".enable = true;
+}
+```

+## Tips & Tricks

+{#scrape-configs}
+### Adding Scrape Configs
+
+`scrape_configs` controls what resources Prometheus monitors.
+
+Since Prometheus also exposes data about itself as an HTTP endpoint it can scrape and monitor its own health. In the [default example configuration](https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/blob/3f686cad8bee405229b2532584ef181ce9f6a8b3/documentation/examples/prometheus.yml) there is a single job, called prometheus. We can add it to `scrape_configs` using the following config:
+
+```nix
+{
+  services.prometheus."pro1" = {
+    enable = true;
+    # scrape prometheus
+    extraConfig = {
+      scrape_configs = [{
+        job_name = "prometheus";
+        static_configs = [{
+          targets = [ "localhost:9090" ];
+        }];
+      }];
+    };
+  };
+}
+```
