prometheus-plugin-app-info v2.0.0

prometheus-plugin-app-info

Node.js prometheus client plugin for application and nodejs version.

Installation

npm i -S prometheus-plugin-app-info

Requirements

• >=prom-client-4.0.0 npm module (installed as peer dependency). If your project depends on previous version of client this plugin might not work.
• >=node-4.0.0 because this module uses ES6 syntax
• Valid package.json file in $PWD

Metric list

• Application and nodejs info
  • type: 'Counter'
  • name: 'nodejs_app_info'
  • labels: 'name', 'version', 'major', 'minor', 'patch'

Usage

Simple

const client = require('prom-client');
const appInfoPlugin = require('prometheus-plugin-app-info');

// start metrics collection
appInfoPlugin.init().start();

// log metrics to console
console.log(client.register.metrics());

// stop metrics collection
appInfoPlugin.stop();

// stop and clear metrics register
appInfoPlugin.reset();

Override metric defaults

const client = require('prom-client');
const appInfoPlugin = require('prometheus-plugin-app-info');
const override = {
  'metric_name': { // provide default metric name to override it's params
    type: 'Counter', // could be changed, but it's not recommended
    name: 'my_metric_name', // name could be changed
    description: 'My custom description', // description could be changed
    labelValues: { // additional labels
      customLabel: 'hello', // custom labels could be added
      customFnLabel: () => { return new Date() } // if it's a function, it will be called to get label value in runtime
    }
  }
};
// start metrics collection
appInfoPlugin.init(override).start(); // pass override object to init function

// log metrics to console
console.log(client.register.metrics());

// stop metrics collection
appInfoPlugin.stop();

// stop and clear metrics register
appInfoPlugin.reset();
