Getting Started

This library is designed to provide a tasteful Scala API for exposing Prometheus metrics using Cats-Effect. It is a mix between Permutive's internal library and Epimetheus. See the design page for more information.

Features

• A fluent metric builder DSL
• Metric name prefix and common labels
• Decoupled backend for registering metrics

Quickstart Usage

This library is currently available for Scala binary versions 2.12 and 2.13 and 3.2.

For detailed code examples see the metrics DSL documentation.

To use the latest version, include the following in your build.sbt:

libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
  "com.permutive" %% "prometheus4cats" % "4.1.0",
  "com.permutive" %% "prometheus4cats-java" % "4.1.0"
)

import cats.effect.IO

import prometheus4cats.MetricFactory
import prometheus4cats.javasimpleclient.JavaMetricRegistry

val counterResource =
  for {
    registry <- JavaMetricRegistry.Builder[IO]().build
    factory = MetricFactory.builder.build(registry)
    counter <- factory.counter("my_counter_total")
                 .ofLong
                 .help("My Counter")
                 .label[String]("some_label")
                 .build
  } yield counter

counterResource.use { counter => counter.inc("Some label value") }
