一、前言

Prometheus 提供了 官方版 Golang 库 用于采集并暴露监控数据，本文快速为你介绍如何使用官方版 Golang 库来暴露 Golang runtime 相关的数据，以及其它一些基本简单的示例，并使用 Prometheus 监控服务来采集指标展示数据。
​

TIPS:
有关全面的 API 文档，请参见 Prometheus 的各种 Go 库的 GoDoc 文档。

二、安装

通过 go get 命令来安装相关依赖库，示例如下：

go get github.com/prometheus/client_golang/prometheus
go get github.com/prometheus/client_golang/prometheus/promauto
go get github.com/prometheus/client_golang/prometheus/promhttp

安装所需的 prometheus, promauto 和 promhttp 库。

$ time go get github.com/prometheus/client_golang/prometheus

real    0m2.054s
user    0m0.000s
sys     0m0.015s

$ time go get github.com/prometheus/client_golang/prometheus/promauto

real    0m4.368s
user    0m0.000s
sys     0m0.015s

$ time go get github.com/prometheus/client_golang/prometheus/promhttp

real    0m3.109s
user    0m0.000s
sys     0m0.047s

三、快速开始（运行时指标）

准备一个 HTTP 服务，路径通常使用 /metrics。可以直接使用 prometheus/promhttp 里提供的 Handler 函数。
如下是一个简单的示例应用，通过 http://localhost:2112/metrics 暴露 Golang 应用的一些默认指标数据（包括运行时指标、进程相关指标以及构建相关的指标）：

package main

import (
	"net/http"

	"github.com/prometheus/client_golang/prometheus/promhttp"
)

func main() {
	//提供 /metrics HTTP 端点
	http.Handle("/metrics", promhttp.Handler())
	//端口号
	http.ListenAndServe(":2112", nil)
}

执行以下命令启动应用：

go run main.go

执行以下命令，访问基础内置指标数据：

curl http://localhost:2112/metrics

四、应用层面指标

应用程序仅公开默认的 Go 指标。我们还可以注册自定义应用程序指定指标。
如下示例应用程序公开了 myapp_processed_ops_total计数器，该计数器对到目前为止已处理的操作数量进行计数。每 2 秒，计数器增加 1。

package main

import (
	"net/http"
	"time"

	"github.com/prometheus/client_golang/prometheus"
	"github.com/prometheus/client_golang/prometheus/promauto"
	"github.com/prometheus/client_golang/prometheus/promhttp"
)

func recordMetrics() {
	//每2秒，计数器增加1。
	go func() {
		for {
			opsProcessed.Inc()
			time.Sleep(2 * time.Second)
		}
	}()
}

//公开了 myapp_processed_ops_total 计数器
var (
	opsProcessed = promauto.NewCounter(prometheus.CounterOpts{
		Name: "myapp_processed_ops_total",
		Help: "The total number of processed events",
	})
)

func main() {
	recordMetrics()

	http.Handle("/metrics", promhttp.Handler())
	http.ListenAndServe(":2112", nil)
}

执行以下命令启动应用：

go run main.go

执行以下命令，访问暴露的指标：

curl http://localhost:2112/metrics

从输出结果我们可以看到 myapp_processed_ops_total 计数器相关的信息，包括帮助文本、类型信息、指标名和当前值。
​

如下所示：

......
# HELP myapp_processed_ops_total The total number of processed events
# TYPE myapp_processed_ops_total counter
myapp_processed_ops_total 4
......

我们可以配置一个 Prometheus 实例，从应用程序中获取指标。这是一个 prometheus.yml 配置示例：

scrape_configs:
- job_name: myapp
  scrape_interval: 10s
  static_configs:
  - targets:
    - 172.16.106.251:2112

五、总结

本文通过两个示例展示了如何将 Golang 相关的指标暴露给 Prometheus 监控服务，以及如何使用内置的可视化的图表查看监控数据。

本文只使用了计数类型 Counter 的指标，对于其它场景可能还需要 Gauge，Histgram 以及 Summary 类型的指标，指标类型。
