chi-prometheus

Prometheus middleware for chi.

This is a port of negroni-prometheus middleware (written by Rene Zbinden).

Why

Logging v. instrumentation

Instead of logging request times, it is considered best practice to provide an endpoint for instrumentation tools (like prometheus).

Installation

go get github.com/766b/chi-prometheus

Usage

Take a look at the example.

What do you get

An endpoint with the following information (stripped output):

# HELP chi_request_duration_milliseconds How long it took to process the request, partitioned by status code, method and HTTP path.
# TYPE chi_request_duration_milliseconds histogram
chi_request_duration_milliseconds_bucke{code="OK",method="GET",path="/metrics",service="serviceName",le="300"} 1
