#### An integrator charm for external metrics endpoints.

Prometheus Scrape Target K8s is a workloadless Juju charm that enables Prometheus to scrape
metrics from endpoints outside of Juju models — such as bare-metal servers, VMs, or external
services. It is a complementary charm to the Canonical Observability Stack (COS):
https://documentation.ubuntu.com/observability

Target addresses are specified via Juju config and automatically registered as Prometheus
scrape jobs through the metrics-endpoint relation. Typically, one or more scrape-target
charms are related to a single scrape-config charm, which allows operators to override
scrape options — such as interval, timeout, and relabeling rules — before forwarding the
jobs to Prometheus.

Key features:

* Register external metrics endpoints as Prometheus scrape targets without requiring a
  charmed operator on the target.
* Configurable job name, metrics path, scheme, labels, and HTTP parameters.
* Basic authentication and TLS support for secure scraping of external endpoints.
* Workloadless charm — no additional containers or resources required.
