# OpenTelemetry Prometheus Metric Exporter

[![NPM Published Version][npm-img]][npm-url]
[![Apache License][license-image]][license-image]

**Note: This is an experimental package under active development. New releases may include breaking changes.**

The OpenTelemetry Prometheus Metrics Exporter allows the user to send collected [OpenTelemetry Metrics](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-js/tree/main/experimental/packages/opentelemetry-sdk-metrics) to Prometheus.

[Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/) is a monitoring system that collects metrics, by scraping exposed endpoints at regular intervals, evaluating rule expressions. It can also trigger alerts if certain conditions are met. For assistance setting up Prometheus, [Click here](https://opencensus.io/codelabs/prometheus/#0) for a guided codelab.

## Installation

```bash
npm install --save @opentelemetry/sdk-metrics
npm install --save @opentelemetry/exporter-prometheus
```

## Usage

Create & register the exporter on your application.

```js
const { PrometheusExporter } = require('@opentelemetry/exporter-prometheus');
const { MeterProvider }  = require('@opentelemetry/sdk-metrics');

// Add your port and startServer to the Prometheus options
const options = {port: 9464, startServer: true};
const exporter = new PrometheusExporter(options);

// Creates MeterProvider and installs the exporter as a MetricReader
const meterProvider = new MeterProvider();
meterProvider.addMetricReader(exporter);
const meter = meterProvider.getMeter('example-prometheus');

// Now, start recording data
const counter = meter.createCounter('metric_name', {
  description: 'Example of a counter'
});
counter.add(10, { pid: process.pid });

// .. some other work
```

## Viewing your metrics

With the above you should now be able to navigate to the Prometheus UI at: <http://localhost:9464/metrics>
