prom-remote-api

Prometheus remote storage API for Rust.

Usage

There are two interfaces in Prometheus remote storage API: write/read.

Both interfaces use a snappy-compressed protocol buffer encoding over HTTP.

This crate provides:

• Rust-binding to prometheus remote storage protocol buffer definitions
• Various web framework utils to serve the remote wire protocols, which are controlled by corresponding feature-gates. Available features:
  • warp
  • actix
  • more web framework will be added

Any third-party storage can integrate with Prometheus by implementing RemoteStorage trait.

pub trait RemoteStorage: Sync {
    type Err: Send;
    type Context: Send + Sync;

    /// Write samples to remote storage.
    async fn write(&self, ctx: Self::Context, req: WriteRequest) -> Result<(), Self::Err>;

    /// Process one query within [ReadRequest](crate::types::ReadRequest).
    ///
    /// Note: Prometheus remote protocol sends multiple queries by default,
    /// use [read](crate::types::RemoteStorage::read) to serve ReadRequest.
    async fn process_query(
        &self,
        ctx: &Self::Context,
        q: Query,
    ) -> Result<QueryResult, Self::Err>;

    /// Read samples from remote storage.
    ///
    /// [ReadRequest](crate::types::ReadRequest) may contain more than one sub [queries](crate::types::Query).
    async fn read(
        &self,
        ctx: Self::Context,
        req: ReadRequest,
    ) -> Result<ReadResponse, Self::Err> {
        let results = futures::future::join_all(
            req.queries
                .into_iter()
                .map(|q| async { self.process_query(&ctx, q).await }),
        )
        .await
        .into_iter()
        .collect::<Result<Vec<_>, Self::Err>>()?;

        Ok(ReadResponse { results })
    }
}
