Description
Feature Request
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe:
Currently I cannot expose Prometheus behind a reverse proxy using /prometheus as prefix.
Describe the feature you'd like:
I would like the default --web.external-url to be overwritten when added to monitoring addiotional_args. Example usage:
additional_args:
- --web.external-url=https://example.org/prometheus
Why the featue is needed:
Exposing a service behind a reverse proxy with a different url is a common scenario.
Describe alternatives you've considered:
There is no alternative besides manually updating the run_prometheus.sh after every tiup run.
