@balena/socket-prometheus-metrics NPM

socket.io-prometheus-metrics

Exposes a metrics endpoint for prometheus to collect data about socket.io.

Installation

npm install socket.io-prometheus-metrics
# or
yarn add socket.io-prometheus-metrics

Usage

Basic usage

import * as http from 'http';
import * as io from 'socket.io';
import * as prometheus from 'socket.io-prometheus-metrics';

const server = http.createServer();
const io = io(server);

prometheus.metrics(io);

server.listen(3000);

Metrics is then available at localhost:9090/metrics.

Prometheus default metrics can also be enabled by setting the collectDefaultMetrics option to true

prometheus.metrics(io, {
    collectDefaultMetrics: true
});

If you wish to serve the metrics yourself the createServer options can be set to false and metrics can be collected from the register

const ioMetrics = prometheus.metrics(io, {
    createServer: false
});

const metrics = ioMetrics.register.metrics();

Options

Option	Default	Description
`path`	"/metrics"	Metrics path
`port`	9090	Metrics port
`createServer`	true	Auto create http server
`collectDefaultMetrics`	false	Collect prometheus default metrics
`checkForNewNamespaces`	true	Collect metrics for namespaces that will be added at runtime

Socket.io metrics

all metrics have socket_io_ prefix in their names.

Name	Help	Labels
`socket_io_connected`	Number of currently connected sockets
`socket_io_connect_total`	Total count of socket.io connection requests	`namespace`
`socket_io_disconnect_total`	Total count of socket.io disconnections	`namespace`
`socket_io_errors_total`	Total count of socket.io errors	`namespace`
`socket_io_events_received_total`	Total count of socket.io received events	`event`, `namespace`
`socket_io_events_sent_total`	Total count of socket.io sent events	`event`, `namespace`
`socket_io_receive_bytes`	Total socket.io bytes received	`event`, `namespace`
`socket_io_transmit_bytes`	Total socket.io bytes transmitted	`event`, `namespace`

Prometheus default metrics

available if collectDefaultMetrics is set to true

More information here and here.

Namespaces support

Default namespace has label value of '/'.

By default library checks io.nsps variable for new namespaces to collect metrics from. This check occurs every 2 seconds.

You can disable this functionality by providing checkForNewNamespaces option with false value. For example:

prometheus.metrics(io, {
    checkForNewNamespaces: false
});

With this functionality disabled, library will only collect metrics from namespaces that were available at the moment of call to prometheus.metrics(io, ...), default namespace is included.
