# Prometheus Haskell Client
[](https://travis-ci.com/bitnomial/prometheus)
[](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/prometheus)
A simple and modern, type safe, performance focused, idiomatic Haskell client
for [Prometheus](http://prometheus.io) monitoring. Specifically there is
no use of unsafe IO or manual ByteString construction from lists of
bytes. Batteries-included web server.
A key design element of this library is that the RegistryT monad transformer
is only required for registering new time series. Once the time series is
registered, new data samples may just be added in the IO monad.
Note: Version 0.* supports Prometheus v1.0 and version 2.* supports Prometheus v2.0.

## Usage Example
```haskell
{-# LANGUAGE OverloadedStrings #-}
module Example where
import Control.Monad.IO.Class (liftIO)
import System.Metrics.Prometheus.Http.Scrape (serveHttpTextMetricsT)
import System.Metrics.Prometheus.Concurrent.RegistryT
import System.Metrics.Prometheus.Metric.Counter (inc)
import System.Metrics.Prometheus.MetricId
main :: IO ()
main = runRegistryT $ do
-- Labels can be defined as lists or added to an empty label set
connectSuccessGauge <- registerGauge "example_connections" (fromList [("login", "success")])
connectFailureGauge <- registerGauge "example_connections" (addLabel "login" "failure" mempty)
connectCounter <- registerCounter "example_connection_total" mempty
latencyHistogram <- registerHistogram "example_round_trip_latency_ms" mempty [10, 20..100]
liftIO $ inc connectCounter -- increment a counter
-- [...] pass metric handles to the rest of the app
serveHttpTextMetricsT 8080 ["metrics"] -- http://localhost:8080/metric server
```
## Advanced Usage
A `Registry` and `StateT`-based `RegistryT` are available for unit
testing or generating lists of `[IO a]` actions that can be
`sequenced` and returned from pure code to be applied.
## Tasks
- [ ] Implement help docstrings.
- [ ] Implement GHC-specific metrics.
- [ ] Implement [summary metric](https://github.com/prometheus/client_golang/blob/master/prometheus/summary.go).
- [ ] Encode name and labels on register.
- [x] Implement ReaderT for Concurrent Registry.
- [x] Library documentation and example.
- [ ] [Name and label validation](http://prometheus.io/docs/concepts/data_model/#metric-names-and-labels)
