beorn7 a6321dd0b1 Create a "merge gatherer"
This allows to finally get rid of the infamous injection hook in the
interface. The old SetMetricFamilyInjectionHook still exist as a
deprecated function but is now implemented with the new plumbing under
the hood.

Now that we have multiple Gatherer implementation, I renamed
push.Registry to push.FromGatherer.

This commit also improves the consistency checks, which happened as a
byproduct of the refactoring to allow checking in both the "merge
gatherer" Gatherers as well as in the normal Registry.

beorn7 bc0b2a3b17 Move http stuff in its own package promhttp
To keep backwards compatibility while not creating circular import
chains, some code had to be duplicated. But all functions using it
have been declared deprecated hereby.

The new ways of instrumenting handlers will all go into the new
package, and ultimately, the prometheus package itself will be
completely igorant of HTTP.

beorn7 9c3fe750dd Expose the registry implementation and add two interfaces.
Registry is now a struct, which implements two interfaces, Registrerer
and Deliverer. The latter is particularly important as it is now the
argument type for pushes and HTTP handler construction (i.e. it is
easy to implement a custom Deliverer for testing or other
purposes). The Registerer interface is not used as a parameter type
but can (and should) be used by users of custom registries so that
they can easily do things like mocking it out for testing purposes.

With the broken up interfaces, adding MustRegister to the interface is
not such a big deal anymore (interface is still small). And since
setting the injection hook is such a rare thing to happen, it is
acceptable to not have it in any of the interfaces.

The renaming from `Collect` to `Deliver` was done to avoid confusion
with Collectors. (The registry _collects_ from the Collectors, and
then _delivers_ to the exposition mechanism.)

beorn7 cf7e1caf17 Create a public registry interface and separate out HTTP exposition
General context and approch
===========================

This is the first part of the long awaited wider refurbishment of
`client_golang/prometheus/...`. After a lot of struggling, I decided
to not go for one breaking big-bang, but cut things into smaller steps
after all, mostly to keep the changes manageable and easy to
review. I'm aiming for having the invasive breaking changes
concentrated in as few steps as possible (ideally one). Some steps
will not be breaking at all, but typically there will be breaking
changes that only affect quite special cases so that 95+% of users
will not be affected. This first step is an example for that, see
details below.

What's happening in this commit?
================================

This step is about finally creating an exported registry
interface. This could not be done by simply export the existing
internal implementation because the interface would be _way_ too
fat. This commit introduces a qutie lean `Registry` interface
(compared to the previous interval implementation). The functions that
act on the default registry are retained (with very few exceptions) so
that most use cases won't see a change. However, several of those are
deprecated now to clean up the namespace in the future.

The default registry is kept in the public variable
`DefaultRegistry`. This follows the example of the http package in the
standard library (cf. `http.DefaultServeMux`, `http.DefaultClient`)
with the same implications. (This pattern is somewhat disputed within
the Go community but I chose to go with the devil you know instead of
creating something more complex or even disallowing any changes to the
default registry. The current approach gives everybody the freedom to
not touch DefaultRegistry or to do everything with a custom registry
to play save.)

Another important part in making the registry lean is the extraction
of the HTTP exposition, which also allows for customization of the
HTTP exposition. Note that the separation of metric collection and
exposition has the side effect that managing the MetricFamily and
Metric protobuf objects in a free-list or pool isn't really feasible
anymore. By now (with better GC in more recent Go versions), the
returns were anyway dimisishing. To be effective at all, scrapes had
to happen more often than GC cycles, and even then most elements of
the protobufs (everything excetp the MetricFamily and Metric structs
themselves) would still cause allocation churn. In a future breaking
change, the signature of the Write method in the Metric interface will
be adjusted accordingly. In this commit, avoiding breakage is more
important.

The following issues are fixed by this commit (some solved "on the
fly" now that I was touching the code anyway and it would have been
stupid to port the bugs):

https://github.com/prometheus/client_golang/issues/46
https://github.com/prometheus/client_golang/issues/100
https://github.com/prometheus/client_golang/issues/170
https://github.com/prometheus/client_golang/issues/205

Documentation including examples have been amended as required.

What future changes does this commit enable?
============================================

The following items are not yet implemented, but this commit opens the
possibility of implementing these independently.

- The separation of the HTTP exposition allows the implementation of
  other exposition methods based on the Registry interface, as known
  from other Prometheus client libraries, e.g. sending the metrics to
  Graphite.
  Cf. https://github.com/prometheus/client_golang/issues/197

- The public `Registry` interface allows the implementation of
  convenience tools for testing metrics collection. Those tools can
  inspect the collected MetricFamily protobufs and compare them to
  expectation. Also, tests can use their own testing instance of a
  registry.
  Cf. https://github.com/prometheus/client_golang/issues/58

Notable non-goals of this commit
================================

Non-goals that will be tackled later
------------------------------------

The following two issues are quite closely connected to the changes in
this commit but the line has been drawn deliberately to address them
in later steps of the refurbishment:

- `InstrumentHandler` has many known problems. The plan is to create a
  saner way to conveniently intrument HTTP handlers and remove the old
  `InstrumentHandler` altogether. To keep breakage low for now, even
  the default handler to expose metrics is still using the old
  `InstrumentHandler`. This leads to weird naming inconsistencies but
  I have deemed it better to not break the world right now but do it
  in the change that provides better ways of instrumenting HTTP
  handlers.
  Cf. https://github.com/prometheus/client_golang/issues/200

- There is work underway to make the whole handling of metric
  descriptors (`Desc`) more intuitive and transparent for the user
  (including an ability for less strict checking,
  cf. https://github.com/prometheus/client_golang/issues/47). That's
  quite invasive from the perspective of the internal code, namely the
  registry. I deliberately kept those changes out of this commit.

- While this commit adds new external dependency, the effort to vendor
  anything within the library that is not visible in any exported
  types will have to be done later.

Non-goals that _might_ be tackled later
---------------------------------------

There is a strong and understandable urge to divide the `prometheus`
package into a number of sub-packages (like `registry`, `collectors`,
`http`, `metrics`, …). However, to not run into a multitude of
circular import chains, this would need to break every single existing
usage of the library. (As just one example, if the ubiquitious
`prometheus.MustRegister` (with more than 2,000 uses on GitHub alone)
is kept in the `prometheus` package, but the other registry concerns
go into a new `registry` package, then the `prometheus` package would
import the `registry` package (to call the actual register method),
while at the same time the `registry` package needs to import the
`prometheus` package to access `Collector`, `Metric`, `Desc` and
more. If we moved `MustRegister` into the `registry` package,
thousands of code lines would have to be fixed (which would be easy if
the world was a mono repo, but it is not). If we moved everything else
the proposed registry package needs into packages of their own, we
would break thousands of other code lines.)

The main problem is really the top-level functions like
`MustRegister`, `Handler`, …, which effectively pull everything into
one package. Those functions are however very convenient for the easy
and very frequent use-cases.

This problem has to be revisited later.

For now, I'm trying to keep the amount of exported names in the
package as low as possible (e.g. I unexported expvarCollector in this
commit because the NewExpvarCollector constructor is enough to export,
and it is now consistent with other collectors, like the goCollector).

Non-goals that won't be tackled anytime soon
--------------------------------------------

Something that I have played with a lot is "streaming collection",
i.e. allow an implementation of the `Registry` interface that collects
metrics incrementally and serves them while doing so. As it has turned
out, this has many many issues and makes the `Registry` interface very
clunky. Eventually, I made the call that it is unlikely we will really
implement streaming collection; and making the interface more clunky
for something that might not even happen is really a big no-no. Note
that the `Registry` interface only creates the in-memory
representation of the metric family protobufs in one go. The
serializaton onto the wire can still be handled in a streaming fashion
(which hasn't been done so far, without causing any trouble, but might
be done in the future without breaking any interfaces).

What are the breaking changes?
==============================

- Signatures of functions pushing to Pushgateway have changed to allow
  arbitrary grouping (which was planned for a long time anyway, and
  now that I had to work on the Push code anyway for the registry
  refurbishment, I finally did it,
  cf. https://github.com/prometheus/client_golang/issues/100).
  With the gained insight that pushing to the default registry is almost
  never the right thing, and now that we are breaking the Push call
  anyway, all the Push functions were moved to their own package,
  which cleans up the namespace and is more idiomatic (pushing
  Collectors is now literally done by `push.Collectors(...)`).

- The registry is doing more consistency checks by default now. Past
  creators of inconsistent metrics could have masked the problem by
  not setting `EnableCollectChecks`. Those inconsistencies will now be
  detected. (But note that a "best effort" metrics collection is now
  possible with `HandlerOpts.ErrorHandling = ContinueOnError`.)

- `EnableCollectChecks` is gone. The registry is now performing some
  of those checks anyway (see previous item), and a registry with all
  of those checks can now be created with `NewPedanticRegistry` (only
  used for testing).

- `PanicOnCollectError` is gone. This behavior can now be configured
  when creating a custom HTTP handler.

Michael Stapelberg c1370d07ca Strip trailing / from push URL.
This circumvents the following problem:
• The prometheus client library appends “/metrics/…” to the pushURL.
• When pushURL ends in a trailing slash, the URL becomes e.g.
  http://pushgateway.example.com:9091//metrics/…
• The pushgateway will reply with an HTTP 307 status code
  (temporary redirect).
• While Go’s net/http client follows redirects by default, it will only
  follow HTTP 302 (Found) and HTTP 303 (See Other) redirects for PUT and
  POST requests, which the prometheus client library uses.

Hence, when calling e.g.:

    prometheus.Push("foo", "bar", "http://pushgateway.example.com:9091/")

…your metrics would not actually get pushed successfully, but rather
you’d see the error message:

This suggested that even though the TestGoCollector test was finished, a goroutine was still hanging around. I traced it back to the call to c.Collect always sending twice of the provided channel. This change receives that second value and allows the goroutine to finish with the test.

Still can't figure out why TestHistogramConcurrency is timing out after 2 minutes :(

The cgo dependency in the "procfs" package is being removed in:

So now it should be fine to always import the "procfs" package and have
it determine dynamically at runtime whether the proc filesystem is
actually there.

This fixes a problem for users which were vendoring client_golang on
MacOS X, but building the result on Linux (the procfs package was
missing in the vendored packages).

Julius Volz 738b69e61a Use non-rewritten Godep imports. 2015-02-27 16:49:40 +01:00
Julius Volz 169c8a68e1 Use godep with import rewriting for vendoring.
The new vendoring was produced by running:

    godep save -r ./examples/... ./prometheus/... ./text/... ./model/... ./extraction/...

Two things to note:

- "extraction/processor0_0_{1,2}_test.go" imported a package from
  "github.com/prometheus/prometheus", all for just one tiny testing
  function. To not have to deal with a circular vendoring dependency, I
  simply replaced the usage of the function by some in-line logic.

- godep grouped the rewritten imports slightly differently for some
  reason, but at least the standard library imports are still in a
  separate section. Not sure if it's worth manually keeping our old

beorn7 79efd06178 Use binary search to pick bucket.
With the usual number of buckets, this doesn't really make a
difference, but it should scale... See the added TODO for the precise
numbers.

Julius Volz 765fdaf37e Update protobuf library package name.
The Golang protocol buffer library has now moved to GitHub:

https://github.com/golang/protobuf

Although "go get"-ing the old package name still works, moving
everything to the new one will make vendoring cleaner.

Tobias Schmidt 7faf9e76ef Handle process collector errors gracefully
As it is expected that the process collector can fail under certain
conditions (proc information for a process only readable by root or
other user for example) and as there is currently no option to configure
the error behavior of the client, this change reverts the error
reporting introduced in 159e96f. This effectively means that errors are
simply ignored and there won't be any samples for the process_* metrics
in case of an error.

Once a user can control how to behave in case of errors returned by
collectors, this change should probably be reverted.

Johannes 'fish' Ziemke 93d11c8e35 Remove procfs dependency unless cgo is enabled 2015-02-09 16:38:04 +01:00
Tobias Schmidt d1d9dee31b Remove dependency on procfs/cgo in non-procfs systems
The procfs package has a cgo dependency (necessary to calculate system
times). As procfs is not available under windows, darwin and supposely
all newer BSD systems, this change remove the procfs dependency on these
systems.

Tobias Schmidt 3cb16a9503 Use clear error interface for process pidFn
If a given pidFn for a process collector can't determine the pid, this
had to be signaled with an invalid pid so far (pid <= 0). In order to
make the error interface clearer for users, this change introduces an
explicit error parameter.
