Metrics are measures of quantitative assessment commonly used for comparing, and tracking performance or production. This library offers atomic counters, gauges and historgrams for the Go programming language. Users have the option to expose snapshots in the Prometheus text-format.
This is free and unencumbered software released into the public domain.
Static regisration on package level comes recommened. The declarations also help to document the funcionality that is covered in the code.
// Package Metrics
var (
ConnectCount = metrics.MustCounter("db_connects_total", "Number of established initiations.")
CacheBytes = metrics.MustInteger("db_cache_bytes", "Size of collective responses.")
DiskUsage = metrics.Must1LabelRealSample("db_disk_usage_ratio", "device")
)Update methods operate error free by design, e.g., CacheBytes.Add(-72) or
DiskUsage(dev.Name).Set(1 - dev.Free, time.Now()).
Serve HTTP with just http.HandleFunc("/metrics", metrics.ServeHTTP).

Package github.com/pascaldekloe/metrics/gostat provides a standard collection
of Go metrics which is similar to the setup as provided by the
original Prometheus library.
Samples may be fetched in a lazy manner, like how the lazy example does.
