    enabled: true
  }
}

httpMetric.name (string)

module.exports.prometheus = {
  httpMetric: {
    name: `http_request_duration_seconds`

httpMetric.type (string)

module.exports.prometheus = {
  httpMetric: {
    type: `histogram`
  }
}

You can select between histogram or summary.

httpMetric.help (string)

module.exports.prometheus = {
  httpMetric: {
    help: `duration histogram of http responses labeled with: `
  }
}

Help text displayed next to the metric name.

httpMetric.buckets (array of numbers)

module.exports.prometheus = {
  httpMetric: {
    buckets: [0.003, 0.03, 0.1, 0.3, 1.5, 10]
  }
}

Buckets related to histogram metric.

httpMetric.route.exclude (array of strings)

module.exports.prometheus = {
  httpMetric: {
    exclude: [

      '\\.js$',
      '\\.(ico|gif|jpg|jpeg|png)$',

httpMetric.urlQueryString (boolean)

module.exports.prometheus = {
  httpMetric: {
    urlQueryString: true
  }
}

Include URL query params in path label. It is true by default but please note your Prometheus server might not be ready for this amount of data (every unique URL).

httpMetric.urlParams (boolean)

module.exports.prometheus = {
  httpMetric: {
    urlParams: true
  }
}

Include URL params in path label. It is true by default but please note your Prometheus server might not be ready for this amount of data (every unique URL).

module.exports.prometheus = {
  upMetric: {
    enabled: true
  }
}

Enable/disable metric.

upMetric.name (string)

module.exports.prometheus = {
  upMetric: {
    name: `up`
  }
}

upMetric.help (string)

module.exports.prometheus = {
  upMetric: {
    help: '1 = up, 0 = not up'
  }
}

throughputMetric.enabled (boolean)

module.exports.prometheus = {
  throughputMetric: {
    enabled: false
  }
}

Enable/disable metric.

throughputMetric.name (string)

module.exports.prometheus = {

    name: `throughput`
  }
}

throughputMetric.help (string)

module.exports.prometheus = {
  throughputMetric: {
    help: 'The number of requests served'
  }
}

Custom metrics

You can add two kind of metrics on your own:

  • counter (increase a metric)
  • gauge (increase or decrease a metric)

Counter metric

let counter = sails.hooks.prometheus.counter.setup({
  name: `testcounter`,
  help: `help to the metric`
})

counter.inc() // increase a metric by default 1

 // increase a metric by 2
counter.inc({
  amount: 2
})

// increase a metric by 10
counter.inc({
  amount: 10
})

Gauge metric

let gauge = sails.hooks.prometheus.gauge.setup({
  name: `testgauged`,
  help: `help to the metric`
})

// increase a metric by default 1
gauge.inc()

// increase a metric by 10
gauge.inc({
  amount: 10
})

// decrease a metric by default 1
gauge.dec()

// decrease a metric by 2
gauge.dec({
  amount: 2
})

// set a metric to 100
gauge.set({
  amount: 100
})

Labels for custom metrics

Both count and gauge metrics comes with labels feature as well.

Example for counter metric

let counter = sails.hooks.prometheus.counter.setup({
  name: `testcounter`,
  help: `help to the metric`
  labelNames: [`counter1`, `counter2`]
})

counter.inc({
  amount: 1,
  labels: {
    counter1: `value`
  }
})

Note: Gauge metric goes the same.

Custom /metrics endpoint

You can configure your own public route by editing /config/routes.js file.

module.exports.routes = {
  'GET /api/v1/metrics': 'prometheus/metrics',
}
