Ginprom

Gin Prometheus metrics exporter inspired by github.com/zsais/go-gin-prometheus

Sourcegraph Go Report Card Build Status codecov License godoc

Install

Simply run: go get -u github.com/Depado/ginprom

Differences with go-gin-prometheus

  • No support for Prometheus' Push Gateway
  • Options on constructor
  • Adds a path label to get the matched route
  • Ability to ignore routes

Usage

package main

import (
	"github.com/Depado/ginprom"
	"github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
)

func main() {
	r := gin.Default()
	p := ginprom.New(
		ginprom.Engine(r),
		ginprom.Subsystem("gin"),
		ginprom.Path("/metrics"),
	)
	r.Use(p.Instrument())

	r.GET("/hello/:id", func(c *gin.Context) {})
	r.GET("/world/:id", func(c *gin.Context) {})
	r.Run("127.0.0.1:8080")
}

Options

Custom Counters

Add custom counters to add own values to the metrics

r := gin.New()
p := ginprom.New(
	ginprom.Engine(r),
)
p.AddCustomCounter("custom", "Some help text to provide", []string{"label"})
r.Use(p.Instrument())

Save p and use the following functions:

  • IncrementCounterValue
  • AddCounterValue

Custom gauges

Add custom gauges to add own values to the metrics

r := gin.New()
p := ginprom.New(
	ginprom.Engine(r),
)
p.AddCustomGauge("custom", "Some help text to provide", []string{"label"})
r.Use(p.Instrument())

Save p and use the following functions:

  • IncrementGaugeValue
  • DecrementGaugeValue
  • SetGaugeValue

Path

Override the default path (/metrics) on which the metrics can be accessed:

r := gin.New()
p := ginprom.New(
	ginprom.Engine(r),
	ginprom.Path("/custom/metrics"),
)
r.Use(p.Instrument())

Namespace

Override the default namespace (gin):

r := gin.New()
p := ginprom.New(
	ginprom.Engine(r),
	ginprom.Namespace("custom_ns"),
)
r.Use(p.Instrument())

Subsystem

Override the default (gonic) subsystem:

r := gin.New()
p := ginprom.New(
	ginprom.Engine(r),
	ginprom.Subsystem("your_subsystem"),
)
r.Use(p.Instrument())

Engine

The preferred way to pass the router to ginprom:

r := gin.New()
p := ginprom.New(
	ginprom.Engine(r),
)
r.Use(p.Instrument())

The alternative being to call the Use method after initialization:

p := ginprom.New()
// ...
r := gin.New()
p.Use(r)
r.Use(p.Instrument())

Prometheus Registry

Use a custom prometheus.Registry instead of prometheus client's global registry. This option allows to use ginprom in multiple gin engines in the same process, or if you would like to integrate ginprom with your own prometheus Registry.

registry := prometheus.NewRegistry() // creates new prometheus metric registry
r := gin.New()
p := ginprom.New(
    ginprom.Registry(registry),
)
r.Use(p.Instrument())

Ignore

Ignore allows to completely ignore some routes. Even though you can apply the middleware to the only groups you're interested in, it is sometimes useful to have routes not instrumented.

r := gin.New()
p := ginprom.New(
	ginprom.Engine(r),
	ginprom.Ignore("/api/no/no/no", "/api/super/secret/route")
)
r.Use(p.Instrument())

Note that most of the time this can be solved by gin groups:

r := gin.New()
p := ginprom.New(ginprom.Engine(r))

// Add the routes that do not need instrumentation
g := r.Group("/api/")
g.Use(p.Instrument())
{
	// Instrumented routes
}

Token

Specify a secret token which Prometheus will use to access the endpoint. If the token is invalid, the endpoint will return an error.

r := gin.New()
p := ginprom.New(
	ginprom.Engine(r),
	ginprom.Token("supersecrettoken")
)
r.Use(p.Instrument())

Bucket size

Specify the bucket size for the request duration histogram according to your expected durations.

r := gin.New()
p := ginprom.New(
	ginprom.Engine(r),
	ginprom.BucketSize([]float64{.005, .01, .025, .05, .1, .25, .5, 1, 2.5, 5, 10}),
)
r.Use(p.Instrument())

Troubleshooting

The instrumentation doesn't seem to work

Make sure you have set the gin.Engine in the ginprom middleware, either when initializing it using ginprom.New(ginprom.Engine(r)) or using the Use function after the initialization like this :

p := ginprom.New(
	ginprom.Namespace("gin"),
	ginprom.Subsystem("gonic"),
	ginprom.Path("/metrics"),
)
p.Use(r)
r.Use(p.Instrument())

By design, if the middleware was to panic, it would do so when a route is called. That's why it just silently fails when no engine has been set.

Documentation

Overview

Package ginprom is a library to instrument a gin server and expose a /metrics endpoint for Prometheus to scrape, keeping a low cardinality by preserving the path parameters name in the prometheus label

var ErrInvalidToken = errors.New("invalid or missing token")

ErrInvalidToken is returned when the provided token is invalid or missing.

Functions

func BucketSize added in v1.4.0 

func BucketSize(b []float64) func(*Prometheus)

BucketSize is used to define the default bucket size when initializing with New.

func Engine 

func Engine(e *gin.Engine) func(*Prometheus)

Engine is an option allowing to set the gin engine when intializing with New. Example: r := gin.Default() p := ginprom.New(Engine(r))

func HandlerNameFunc added in v1.7.7 

func HandlerNameFunc(f func(c *gin.Context) string) func(*Prometheus)

HandlerNameFunc is an option allowing to set the HandlerNameFunc with New. Use this option if you want to override the default behavior (i.e. using (*gin.Context).HandlerName). This is useful when wanting to group different functions under the same "handler" label or when using gin with decorated handlers Example: r := gin.Default() p := ginprom.New(HandlerNameFunc(func (c *gin.Context) string { return "my handler" }))

func Ignore 

func Ignore(paths ...string) func(*Prometheus)

Ignore is used to disable instrumentation on some routes.

func Namespace(ns string) func(*Prometheus)

Namespace is an option allowing to set the namespace when initializing with New.

func Path 

func Path(path string) func(*Prometheus)

r := gin.New()
p := New(Engine(r), Path("/metrics"))
r.Use(p.Instrument())

Output:

func Registry added in v1.5.0 

func Registry(r *prometheus.Registry) func(*Prometheus)

Registry is an option allowing to set a *prometheus.Registry with New. Use this option if you want to use a custom Registry instead of a global one that prometheus client uses by default Example: r := gin.Default() p := ginprom.New(Registry(r))
