Prometheus-operator: no matches for kind "Prometheus" in version "monitoring.coreos.com/v1alpha1"

[magick93]

What did you do?

I'm following the steps on the blog at https://coreos.com/blog/the-prometheus-operator.html

And ran kubectl create -f https://coreos.com/operators/prometheus/latest/prometheus-k8s.yaml

And got:

service "prometheus-k8s" created
error: unable to recognize "https://coreos.com/operators/prometheus/latest/prometheus-k8s.yaml": no matches for kind "Prometheus" in version "monitoring.coreos.com/v1alpha1"

What did you expect to see?
Not sure

What did you see instead? Under which circumstances?

service "prometheus-k8s" created
error: unable to recognize "https://coreos.com/operators/prometheus/latest/prometheus-k8s.yaml": no matches for kind "Prometheus" in version "monitoring.coreos.com/v1alpha1"

The very top of the blog post says:

Note: The instructions in this post are out of date. To try out the Prometheus Operator, view the latest Prometheus docs for an up-to-date guide to get started.

I recommend the getting started guide right from this repo: https://github.com/coreos/prometheus-operator/blob/master/Documentation/user-guides/getting-started.md

Let us know how it goes! :slightly_smiling_face:

Please consider make the deprecation notice more prominent.

Changing to red color might be a good idea.

Or the entire text should be hidden behind a zippy button, stating something like:
"This is deprecated, to read, click this button"
Which then shows the text after clicking the button.
