more structured access to metrics.
tcolgate opened this issue · comments
Metrics returns a private type that doesn't show it's methods in the GoDoc. Ideally I'd like to be able to expose the metrics to a prometheus collector. It looks like I could possibly parse some string formatted output, but, ideally, I'd be able to get a current set of structuted mwtrics from the call.
Yea, I see no reason why we can't expose all of it publicly.
The metrics structure is pretty clear that it doesn't want anyone looking at it :) How about having the Metrics() call return a different type with a snapshot of the internal numbers?
