Loki Stack Helm Chart
This chart provides a batteries-included logging stack for Kubernetes:
- Loki for log storage and querying
- Grafana Alloy for cluster-wide log collection (Grafana’s replacement for deprecated Promtail and other collectors)
- Optional kube-prometheus-stack for Grafana + Prometheus
Why?
- Upstream changes: The legacy loki-stack approach and Promtail are deprecated upstream; this chart exists to keep an easy-to-install stack using current Loki with Alloy.
- Cluster-wide container logs: By default in this chart, Alloy is configured to collect all Kubernetes container logs from
/var/log/pods/*/*/*.logacross the cluster and forward them to Loki with useful labels (namespace/pod/container).
