Background

Since no current TypeScript Native implementation for Node.JS or Deno seemed to exist, promts fills the gap. This allows for your TypeScript code to have type checking on the promclient types.

Install

Usage from Deno

    import { MetricsManager } from 'https://deno.land/x/[email protected]/mod.ts'

Usage

Counters

Counters are monotonically increasing--counters never go down. Think http request.

    import { MetricsManager } from 'https://deno.land/x/[email protected]/mod.ts'
    const httpTotalRequests = MetricsManager.getCounter("http_requests_total")
      .with({ service: "web" });
    httpTotalRequests.inc();

Gauges

Gauges can go up and down... Think water levels, temperature, thread counts.

    import { MetricsManager } from 'https://deno.land/x/[email protected]/mod.ts'
    const processCount = MetricsManager.getGauge("process_count").with({app:"server"});
    processCount.inc(); // 1
    processCount.inc(3);
    processCount.dec();
    processCount.getTotal(); // 3

Histogram

Histograms can be though of as a list of counters. These counters each represent a bucket. Buckets have a label le which denotes the upper bound. Histograms also contain their sum and count.

    import { MetricsManager } from 'https://deno.land/x/[email protected]/mod.ts'
    const histogram = new Histogram("http_request_duration");
    histogram.observe(0.01);
    histogram.observe(0.1);
    histogram.observe(5);
    histogram.observe(5);
    histogram.getCount(); // 4
    histogram.getSum();   // 10.11
    histogram.toString(); // dump to string

Pushgateway

    const pushgateway = new PushGateway("test_job");
    pushgateway.sendOnInterval(MetricsManager);

Dumping the metrics in prometheus format

    import { MetricsManager } from 'https://deno.land/x/[email protected]/mod.ts'
    const metricsData = MetricsManager.toString();
