// Package prometheus provides embeddable metric primitives for servers and
|
|
// standardized exposition of telemetry through a web services interface.
|
|
//
|
|
// All exported functions and methods are safe to be used concurrently unless
|
|
// specified otherwise.
|
|
//
|
|
// To expose metrics registered with the Prometheus registry, an HTTP server
|
|
// needs to know about the Prometheus handler. The usual endpoint is "/metrics".
|
|
//
|
|
// http.Handle("/metrics", prometheus.Handler())
|
|
//
|
|
// As a starting point a very basic usage example:
|
|
//
|
|
// package main
|
|
//
|
|
// import (
|
|
// "net/http"
|
|
//
|
|
// "github.com/prometheus/client_golang/prometheus"
|
|
// )
|
|
//
|
|
// var (
|
|
// cpuTemp = prometheus.NewGauge(prometheus.GaugeOpts{
|
|
// Name: "cpu_temperature_celsius",
|
|
// Help: "Current temperature of the CPU.",
|
|
// })
|
|
// hdFailures = prometheus.NewCounter(prometheus.CounterOpts{
|
|
// Name: "hd_errors_total",
|
|
// Help: "Number of hard-disk errors.",
|
|
// })
|
|
// )
|
|
//
|
|
// func init() {
|
|
// prometheus.MustRegister(cpuTemp)
|
|
// prometheus.MustRegister(hdFailures)
|
|
// }
|
|
//
|
|
// func main() {
|
|
// cpuTemp.Set(65.3)
|
|
// hdFailures.Inc()
|
|
//
|
|
// http.Handle("/metrics", prometheus.Handler())
|
|
// http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil)
|
|
// }
|
|
//
|
|
//
|
|
// This is a complete program that exports two metrics, a Gauge and a Counter.
|
|
// It also exports some stats about the HTTP usage of the /metrics
|
|
// endpoint. (See the Handler function for more detail.)
|
|
//
|
|
// A more advanced metric type is the Summary.
|
|
//
|
|
// In addition to the fundamental metric types Gauge, Counter, and Summary, a
|
|
// very important part of the Prometheus data model is the partitioning of
|
|
// samples along dimensions called labels, which results in metric vectors. The
|
|
// fundamental types are GaugeVec, CounterVec, and SummaryVec.
|
|
//
|
|
// Those are all the parts needed for basic usage. Detailed documentation and
|
|
// examples are provided below.
|
|
//
|
|
// Everything else this package offers is essentially for "power users" only. A
|
|
// few pointers to "power user features":
|
|
//
|
|
// All the various ...Opts structs have a ConstLabels field for labels that
|
|
// never change their value (which is only useful under special circumstances,
|
|
// see documentation of the Opts type).
|
|
//
|
|
// The Untyped metric behaves like a Gauge, but signals the Prometheus server
|
|
// not to assume anything about its type.
|
|
//
|
|
// Functions to fine-tune how the metric registry works: EnableCollectChecks,
|
|
// PanicOnCollectError, Register, Unregister, SetMetricFamilyInjectionHook.
|
|
//
|
|
// For custom metric collection, there are two entry points: Custom Metric
|
|
// implementations and custom Collector implementations. A Metric is the
|
|
// fundamental unit in the Prometheus data model: a sample at a point in time
|
|
// together with its meta-data (like its fully-qualified name and any number of
|
|
// pairs of label name and label value) that knows how to marshal itself into a
|
|
// data transfer object (aka DTO, implemented as a protocol buffer). A Collector
|
|
// gets registered with the Prometheus registry and manages the collection of
|
|
// one or more Metrics. Many parts of this package are building blocks for
|
|
// Metrics and Collectors. Desc is the metric descriptor, actually used by all
|
|
// metrics under the hood, and by Collectors to describe the Metrics to be
|
|
// collected, but only to be dealt with by users if they implement their own
|
|
// Metrics or Collectors. To create a Desc, the BuildFQName function will come
|
|
// in handy. Other useful components for Metric and Collector implementation
|
|
// include: LabelPairSorter to sort the DTO version of label pairs,
|
|
// NewConstMetric and MustNewConstMetric to create "throw away" Metrics at
|
|
// collection time, MetricVec to bundle custom Metrics into a metric vector
|
|
// Collector, SelfCollector to make a custom Metric collect itself.
|
|
//
|
|
// A good example for a custom Collector is the ExpVarCollector included in this
|
|
// package, which exports variables exported via the "expvar" package as
|
|
// Prometheus metrics.
