// Package metrics implements Prometheus-compatible metrics for applications. // // This package is lightweight alternative to https://github.com/prometheus/client_golang // with simpler API and smaller dependencies. // // Usage: // // 1. Register the required metrics via New* functions. // 2. Expose them to `/metrics` page via WritePrometheus. // 3. Update the registered metrics during application lifetime. // // The package has been extracted from https://victoriametrics.com/ package metrics import ( "io" ) type namedMetric struct { name string metric metric } type metric interface { marshalTo(prefix string, w io.Writer) } var defaultSet = NewSet() // WritePrometheus writes all the registered metrics in Prometheus format to w. // // If exposeProcessMetrics is true, then various `go_*` and `process_*` metrics // are exposed for the current process. // // The WritePrometheus func is usually called inside "/metrics" handler: // // http.HandleFunc("/metrics", func(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) { // metrics.WritePrometheus(w, true) // }) // func WritePrometheus(w io.Writer, exposeProcessMetrics bool) { defaultSet.WritePrometheus(w) if exposeProcessMetrics { WriteProcessMetrics(w) } } // WriteProcessMetrics writes additional process metrics in Prometheus format to w. // // The following `go_*` and `process_*` metrics are exposed for the currently // running process. Below is a short description for the exposed `process_*` metrics: // // - process_cpu_seconds_system_total - CPU time spent in syscalls // - process_cpu_seconds_user_total - CPU time spent in userspace // - process_cpu_seconds_total - CPU time spent by the process // - process_major_pagefaults_total - page faults resulted in disk IO // - process_minor_pagefaults_total - page faults resolved without disk IO // - process_resident_memory_bytes - recently accessed memory (aka RSS or resident memory) // - process_resident_memory_peak_bytes - the maximum RSS memory usage // - process_resident_memory_anon_bytes - RSS for memory-mapped files // - process_resident_memory_file_bytes - RSS for memory allocated by the process // - process_resident_memory_shared_bytes - RSS for memory shared between multiple processes // - process_virtual_memory_bytes - virtual memory usage // - process_virtual_memory_peak_bytes - the maximum virtual memory usage // - process_num_threads - the number of threads // - process_start_time_seconds - process start time as unix timestamp // // - process_io_read_bytes_total - the number of bytes read via syscalls // - process_io_written_bytes_total - the number of bytes written via syscalls // - process_io_read_syscalls_total - the number of read syscalls // - process_io_write_syscalls_total - the number of write syscalls // - process_io_storage_read_bytes_total - the number of bytes actually read from disk // - process_io_storage_written_bytes_total - the number of bytes actually written to disk // // - go_memstats_alloc_bytes - memory usage for Go objects in the heap // - go_memstats_alloc_bytes_total - the cumulative counter for total size of allocated Go objects // - go_memstats_frees_total - the cumulative counter for number of freed Go objects // - go_memstats_gc_cpu_fraction - the fraction of CPU spent in Go garbage collector // - go_memstats_gc_sys_bytes - the size of Go garbage collector metadata // - go_memstats_heap_alloc_bytes - the same as go_memstats_alloc_bytes // - go_memstats_heap_idle_bytes - idle memory ready for new Go object allocations // - go_memstats_heap_objects - the number of Go objects in the heap // - go_memstats_heap_sys_bytes - memory requested for Go objects from the OS // - go_memstats_mallocs_total - the number of allocations for Go objects // - go_memstats_next_gc_bytes - the target heap size when the next garbage collection should start // - go_memstats_stack_inuse_bytes - memory used for goroutine stacks // - go_memstats_stack_sys_bytes - memory requested fromthe OS for goroutine stacks // - go_memstats_sys_bytes - memory requested by Go runtime from the OS // // The WriteProcessMetrics func is usually called in combination with writing Set metrics // inside "/metrics" handler: // // http.HandleFunc("/metrics", func(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) { // mySet.WritePrometheus(w) // metrics.WriteProcessMetrics(w) // }) // // See also WrteFDMetrics. func WriteProcessMetrics(w io.Writer) { writeGoMetrics(w) writeProcessMetrics(w) } // WriteFDMetrics writes `process_max_fds` and `process_open_fds` metrics to w. func WriteFDMetrics(w io.Writer) { writeFDMetrics(w) } // UnregisterMetric removes metric with the given name from default set. func UnregisterMetric(name string) bool { return defaultSet.UnregisterMetric(name) }
