This project aims to test Prometheus generated metrics from a Flask application. Ideally you would deploy this application using Docker or in a Kubernetes cluster.

A Docker image is already available from Docker Hub:

docker pull nicc777/python_flask_prometheus_poc

Docker quick start:

docker run -p 8082:8080 --name pyprom --rm nicc777/python_flask_prometheus_poc:latest

And then start Locust and run a simple test using the provided locustfile.py file.
