Expand description

A struct that bundles the options for creating most Metric types.

Fields§

§namespace: String

namespace, subsystem, and name are components of the fully-qualified name of the Metric (created by joining these components with “_”). Only Name is mandatory, the others merely help structuring the name. Note that the fully-qualified name of the metric must be a valid Prometheus metric name.

§subsystem: String

namespace, subsystem, and name are components of the fully-qualified name of the Metric (created by joining these components with “_”). Only Name is mandatory, the others merely help structuring the name. Note that the fully-qualified name of the metric must be a valid Prometheus metric name.

§name: String

namespace, subsystem, and name are components of the fully-qualified name of the Metric (created by joining these components with “_”). Only Name is mandatory, the others merely help structuring the name. Note that the fully-qualified name of the metric must be a valid Prometheus metric name.

§help: String

help provides information about this metric. Mandatory!

Metrics with the same fully-qualified name must have the same Help string.

§const_labels: HashMap<String, String, RandomState>

const_labels are used to attach fixed labels to this metric. Metrics with the same fully-qualified name must have the same label names in their ConstLabels.

Note that in most cases, labels have a value that varies during the lifetime of a process. Those labels are usually managed with a metric vector collector (like CounterVec, GaugeVec). ConstLabels serve only special purposes. One is for the special case where the value of a label does not change during the lifetime of a process, e.g. if the revision of the running binary is put into a label. Another, more advanced purpose is if more than one Collector needs to collect Metrics with the same fully-qualified name. In that case, those Metrics must differ in the values of their ConstLabels. See the Collector examples.

If the value of a label never changes (not even between binaries), that label most likely should not be a label at all (but part of the metric name).

§variable_labels: Vec<String, Global>

variable_labels contains names of labels for which the metric maintains variable values. Metrics with the same fully-qualified name must have the same label names in their variable_labels.

Note that variable_labels is used in MetricVec. To create a single metric must leave it empty.

Implementations§

subsystem sets the sub system.

const_labels sets the const labels.

const_label adds a const label.
