虽然 prometheus 已有大量可直接使用的 exporter 可供使用,以满足收集不同的监控指标的需要。例如,node exporter 可以收集机器 cpu,内存等指标,cadvisor 可以收集容器指标。然而,如果需要收集一些定制化的指标,还是需要我们编写自定义的指标。
本文讲述如何使用 prometheus python 客户端库和 flask 编写 prometheus 自定义指标。
安装依赖库
我们的程序依赖于flask 和prometheus client 两个库,其 requirements.txt
内容如下:
flask==1.1.2 prometheus-client==0.8.0
运行 flask
我们先使用 flask web 框架将 /metrics
接口运行起来,再往里面添加指标的实现逻辑。
#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding:utf-8 -*-
from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route('/metrics')
def hello():
return 'metrics'
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=5000)
打开浏览器,输入 http://127.0.0.1:5000/metrics
,按下回车后浏览器显示 metrics 字符。
编写指标
Prometheus 提供四种指标类型,分别为 Counter,Gauge,Histogram 和 Summary。
Counter
Counter 指标只增不减,可以用来代表处理的请求数量,处理的任务数量,等。
可以使用 Counter
定义一个 counter 指标:
counter = Counter(‘my_counter’, ‘an example showed how to use counter’)
其中,my_counter
是 counter 的名称,an example showed how to use counter
是对该 counter 的描述。
使用 counter 完整的代码如下:
代码语言:javascript复制#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding:utf-8 -*-
from flask import Flask, Response
from prometheus_client import Counter, generate_latest
app = Flask(__name__)
counter = Counter('my_counter', 'an example showed how to use counter')
@app.route('/metrics')
def hello():
counter.inc(1)
return Response(generate_latest(counter), mimetype='text/plain')
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=5000)
访问 http://127.0.0.1:5000/metrics
,浏览器输出:
# HELP my_counter_total an example showed how to use counter # TYPE my_counter_total counter my_counter_total 6.0 # HELP my_counter_created an example showed how to use counter # TYPE my_counter_created gauge my_counter_created 1.5932468510424378e 09
在定义 counter 指标时,可以定义其 label 标签:
counter = Counter(‘my_counter’, ‘an example showed how to use counter’, [‘machine_ip’])
在使用时指定标签的值:
counter.labels(‘127.0.0.1’).inc(1)
这时浏览器会将标签输出:
my_counter_total{machine_ip=”127.0.0.1″} 1.0
Gauge
Gauge 指标可增可减,例如,并发请求数量,cpu 占用率,等。
可以使用 Gauge
定义一个 gauge 指标:
registry = CollectorRegistry()
gauge = Gauge('my_gauge', 'an example showed how to use gauge', ['machine_ip'], registry=registry)
为使得 /metrics
接口返回多个指标,我们引入了 CollectorRegistry
,并设置 gauge 的 registry 属性。
使用 set
方法设置 gauge 指标的值:
gauge.labels(‘127.0.0.1’).set(2)
访问 http://127.0.0.1:5000/metrics
,浏览器增加输出:
# HELP my_gauge an example showed how to use gauge # TYPE my_gauge gauge my_gauge{machine_ip=”127.0.0.1″} 2.0
Histogram
Histogram 用于统计样本数值落在不同的桶(buckets)里面的数量。例如,统计应用程序的响应时间,可以使用 histogram 指标类型。
使用 Histogram
定义一个 historgram 指标:
buckets = (100, 200, 300, 500, 1000, 3000, 10000, float('inf'))
histogram = Histogram('my_histogram', 'an example showed how to use histogram', ['machine_ip'], registry=registry, buckets=buckets)
如果我们不使用默认的 buckets
,可以指定一个自定义的 buckets
,如上面的代码所示。
使用 observe()
方法设置 histogram 的值:
histogram.labels(‘127.0.0.1’).observe(1001)
访问 /metrics
接口,输出:
# HELP my_histogram an example showed how to use histogram # TYPE my_histogram histogram my_histogram_bucket{le=”100.0″,machine_ip=”127.0.0.1″} 0.0 my_histogram_bucket{le=”200.0″,machine_ip=”127.0.0.1″} 0.0 my_histogram_bucket{le=”300.0″,machine_ip=”127.0.0.1″} 0.0 my_histogram_bucket{le=”500.0″,machine_ip=”127.0.0.1″} 0.0 my_histogram_bucket{le=”1000.0″,machine_ip=”127.0.0.1″} 0.0 my_histogram_bucket{le=”3000.0″,machine_ip=”127.0.0.1″} 1.0 my_histogram_bucket{le=”10000.0″,machine_ip=”127.0.0.1″} 1.0 my_histogram_bucket{le=” Inf”,machine_ip=”127.0.0.1″} 1.0 my_histogram_count{machine_ip=”127.0.0.1″} 1.0 my_histogram_sum{machine_ip=”127.0.0.1″} 1001.0 # HELP my_histogram_created an example showed how to use histogram # TYPE my_histogram_created gauge my_histogram_created{machine_ip=”127.0.0.1″} 1.593260699767071e 09
由于我们设置了 histogram
的样本值为 1001,可以看到,从 3000 开始,xxx_bucket 的值为 1。由于只设置一个样本值,故 my_histogram_count
为 1 ,且样本总数 my_histogram_sum
为 1001。
读者可以自行试验几次,慢慢体会 histogram 指标的使用,远比看网上的文章理解得快。
Summary
Summary 和 histogram 类型类似,可用于统计数据的分布情况。
定义 summary 指标:
summary = Summary(‘my_summary’, ‘an example showed how to use summary’, [‘machine_ip’], registry=registry)
设置 summary 指标的值:
summary.labels(‘127.0.0.1’).observe(randint(1, 10))
访问 /metrics
接口,输出:
# HELP my_summary an example showed how to use summary # TYPE my_summary summary my_summary_count{machine_ip=”127.0.0.1″} 4.0 my_summary_sum{machine_ip=”127.0.0.1″} 16.0 # HELP my_summary_created an example showed how to use summary # TYPE my_summary_created gauge my_summary_created{machine_ip=”127.0.0.1″} 1.593263241728389e 09
