Customisable prometheus exporter for your python application.

Currently not that much customisable, though.

Installation

python3 -m pip install pyp8s

Usage

Examples: https://github.com/pyp8s/examples

MetricsHandler implements a singleton.

from pyp8s import MetricsHandler as meh

if __name__ == '__main__':

    meh.serve(listen_address="0.0.0.0", listen_port=8081)

    meh.init("calls", "counter", "Number of calls I've received")
    meh.init("doorbells", "counter", "Number of doorbells I've answered")
    meh.init("yawns", "counter", "Quite self-explanatory")
    meh.init("mood", "gauge", "How do I feel myself from 1 to good enough")
    meh.init("giggles", "counter", "Measurement of the joke power.", init_value=0)

    meh.inc("calls", 1)

    meh.inc("doorbells", 100, can="have", extra="labels", since="2.1.0")
    meh.inc("doorbells", 9000, this="will", be="useful")

    meh.inc("yawns", 8, satisfying="yes")
    meh.inc("yawns", 1, satisfying="no", loud="yes")

    meh.set("mood", 3)
    meh.set("mood", 6)

Usage without starting a server

When you only need this thing to collect and render metrics:

from pyp8s import MetricsHandler as meh

if __name__ == '__main__':
    meh.init("calls", "counter", "Number of calls I've received")

    print(meh.render())

render() returns a string object.
