This is the Go client library for Prometheus. It has two separate parts, one for instrumenting application code, and one for creating clients that talk to the Prometheus HTTP API.
The
prometheus directory
contains the instrumentation library. See the
best practices section of the
Prometheus documentation to learn more about instrumenting applications.
The
examples directory
contains simple examples of instrumented code.
The
api/prometheus directory
contains the client for the
Prometheus HTTP API. It allows you
to write Go applications that query time series data from a Prometheus
server. It is still in alpha stage.
The model packages has been moved to
prometheus/common/model.
The extraction and text packages are now contained in
prometheus/common/expfmt.
