biometrics
Biometrics provide the vitals of a process in the form of counters, gauges, moments, and T-digests. Collectively, these sensors paint a picture of what's happening within a process in timeseries form.
Status
Active development. Biometrics is likely to change in the near future in backwards-incompatible ways. Planned changes will affect how to register sensors in order to solve the dependency graph problem.
Scope
Biometrics will provide core sensor types and a plaintext emitter for counter, gauge, and moments types. Protocol buffer definitions for sensor readings can be found in the biometrics_pb
Warts
- The blue repo currently is not uniform in its register_biometrics functions. The convention is that a public method should not call other public methods.
Documentation
The latest documentation is always available at docs.rs.
Updating
- 0.2.0 -> 0.3.0: API changes to remove
ingest_swizzle
. It's recommended to have a crate transitively register its own modules and then have the main function register each crate's root registration function.
