Prometheus Rust client library

This is the Rust client library for Prometheus. The main Structures and APIs are ported from Go client.

Usage

Add this to your Cargo.toml:
```
[dependencies]
prometheus = "0.7"
```
Add this to your crate in lib.rs:
```
extern crate prometheus;
```

Or enable nightly feature for better performance.

[dependencies.prometheus]
git = "https://github.com/pingcap/rust-prometheus.git"
features = ["nightly"]

Note

The crate has a pre-generated protobuf binding file for protobuf v2.0, if you need use the latest version of protobuf, you can generate the binding file on building with the gen feature.

[dependencies.prometheus]
git = "https://github.com/pingcap/rust-prometheus.git"
features = ["gen"]

Example

use prometheus::{Opts, Registry, Counter, TextEncoder, Encoder};

// Create a Counter.
let counter_opts = Opts::new("test_counter", "test counter help");
let counter = Counter::with_opts(counter_opts).unwrap();

// Create a Registry and register Counter.
let r = Registry::new();
r.register(Box::new(counter.clone())).unwrap();

// Inc.
counter.inc();

// Gather the metrics.
let mut buffer = vec![];
let encoder = TextEncoder::new();
let metric_families = r.gather();
encoder.encode(&metric_families, &mut buffer).unwrap();

// Output to the standard output.
println!("{}", String::from_utf8(buffer).unwrap());

Static Metric

Static metric helps you make metric vectors faster.
