* Make the Go 1.17 collector thread-safe (#969)

* Use simpler locking in the Go 1.17 collector (#975)

A previous PR made it so that the Go 1.17 collector locked only around
uses of rmSampleBuf, but really that means that Metric values may be
sent over the channel containing some values from future metrics.Read
calls. While generally-speaking this isn't a problem, we lose any
consistency guarantees provided by the runtime/metrics package.

Also, that optimization to not just lock around all of Collect was
premature. Truthfully, Collect is called relatively infrequently, and
its critical path is fairly fast (10s of µs). To prove it, this change
also adds a benchmark.

name            old time/op  new time/op  delta
GoCollector-16  43.7µs ± 2%  43.2µs ± 2%   ~     (p=0.190 n=9+9)

Note that because the benchmark is single-threaded it actually looks
like it might be getting *slightly* faster, because all those Collect
calls for the Metrics are direct calls instead of interface calls.

* API client: make http reads more efficient (#976)

Replace `io.ReadAll` with `bytes.Buffer.ReadFrom`.
Both need to resize a buffer until they have finished reading;
the former increases by 1.25x each time while the latter uses 2x.

Also added a benchmark to demonstrate the benefit:

* Reduce granularity of histogram buckets for Go 1.17 collector (#974)

The Go runtime/metrics package currently exports extremely granular
histograms. Exponentially bucket any histogram with unit "seconds"
or "bytes" instead to dramatically reduce the number of buckets, and
thus the number of metrics.

This change also adds a test to check for expected cardinality to
prevent cardinality surprises in the future.

Prometheus Go client library

CircleCI Go Report Card Go Reference Slack

This is the Go client library for Prometheus. It has two separate parts, one for instrumenting application code, and one for creating clients that talk to the Prometheus HTTP API.

This library requires Go1.17 or later.

Important note about releases and stability

This repository generally follows Semantic Versioning. However, the API client in prometheus/client_golang/api/… is still considered experimental. Breaking changes of the API client will not trigger a new major release. The same is true for selected other new features explicitly marked as EXPERIMENTAL in CHANGELOG.md.

Features that require breaking changes in the stable parts of the repository are being batched up and tracked in the v2 milestone. The v2 development happens in a separate branch for the time being. v2 releases off that branch will happen once sufficient stability is reached. In view of the widespread use of this repository, v1 and v2 will coexist for a while to enable a convenient transition.

Instrumenting applications

code-coverage Go Reference

The prometheus directory contains the instrumentation library. See the guide on the Prometheus website to learn more about instrumenting applications.

The examples directory contains simple examples of instrumented code.

Client for the Prometheus HTTP API

code-coverage Go Reference

The api/prometheus directory contains the client for the Prometheus HTTP API. It allows you to write Go applications that query time series data from a Prometheus server. It is still in alpha stage.

Where is model, extraction, and text?

The model packages has been moved to prometheus/common/model.

The extraction and text packages are now contained in prometheus/common/expfmt.
