Usage

To run the below example run:

npm run readme

"use strict";
 
const events = require("events");
const pkg = require("../package.json");
const Quantify = require("quantify");
const QuantifyTelemetryEvents = require("../index.js");
const TelemetryEvents = require("telemetry-events");
 
const emitter = new events.EventEmitter();
const metricsRegistry = new Quantify();
const telemetryEvents = new TelemetryEvents(
    {
        emitter,
        package: pkg
    }
);
const quantifyTelemetryEmitter = new QuantifyTelemetryEvents(
    {
        telemetry: telemetryEvents
    }
);
 
emitter.on("telemetry", event => console.dir(event));
 
// create some metrics using Quantify
metricsRegistry.counter("errors", "Err",
    {
        server: "foo"
    }
);
metricsRegistry.gauge("cpuLoad", "Load");
metricsRegistry.histogram("searchResultsReturned",
    {
        measureUnit: "Result",
        sampleSizeUnit:  "Req"
    }
);
metricsRegistry.meter("requests",
    {
        rateUnit: "Req/s",
        updateCountUnit: "Req"
    }
);
metricsRegistry.timer("requestLatency",
    {
        measureUnit: "ms",
        rateUnit: "Req/s",
        sampleSizeUnit: "Req"
    },
    {
        some: "other_tag",
        and: "more_metadata"
    }
);
 
// get the metrics we want to report
const metrics = metricsRegistry.getMetrics();
 
quantifyTelemetryEmitter.counter("errors", metrics.counters["errors"]);
quantifyTelemetryEmitter.gauge("cpuLoad", metrics.gauges["cpuLoad"]);
quantifyTelemetryEmitter.histogram("searchResultsReturned", metrics.histograms["searchResultsReturned"]);
quantifyTelemetryEmitter.meter("requests", metrics.meters["requests"]);
quantifyTelemetryEmitter.timer("requestLatency", metrics.timers["requestLatency"]);
 
// ...or just call this
quantifyTelemetryEmitter.metrics(metrics);

QuantifyTelemetryEvents

Public API

• new QuantifyTelemetryEvents(config)
• telemetry.counter(name, c)
• telemetry.gauge(name, g)
• telemetry.histogram(name, h)
• telemetry.meter(name, m)
• telemetry.metrics(metrics) USE THIS
• telemetry.timer(name, t)

new QuantifyTelemetryEvents(config)

• config: Object
  • telemetry: TelemetryEvents Instance of TelemetryEvents to use for processing.

Creates a new QuantifyTelemetryEvents instance.

telemetry.counter(name, c)

• name: String Name of the metric to be used for event.name property.
• unit: String Unit to be used for the metric event.unit property.
• c: Object Quantify calculated counter to process.
• Return: Object The event.

Helper to create "metric" event with 'target_type' of "counter". If emitter was specified in configuration, calling this helper will also emit this event. The created event object will have the following properties (in addition to those added by TelemeteryEvents):

{
    type: 'metric',
    name: <name>,
    target_type: 'counter',
    unit: <c.unit>,
    value: <c.value>
}

If c has metadata, properties of metadata will be included with or override the above template.

telemetry.gauge(name, g)

• name: String Name of the metric to be used for event.name property.
• unit: String Unit to be used for the metric event.unit property.
• g: Object Quantify calculated gauge to process.
• Return: Object The event.

Helper to create "metric" event with 'target_type' of "gauge". If emitter was specified in configuration, calling this helper will also emit this event. The created event object will have the following properties (in addition to those added by TelemeteryEvents):

{
    type: 'metric',
    name: <name>,
    target_type: 'gauge',
    unit: <g.unit>,
    value: <g.value>
}

If g has metadata, properties of metadata will be included with or override the above template.

telemetry.histogram(name, h)

• name: String Name of the metric to be used for event.name property.
• h: Object Quantify calculated histogram to process.
• Return: Object The event.

Helper to create "metric" event with 'target_type' of "histogram". If emitter was specified in configuration, calling this helper will also emit this event. The created event object will have the following properties (in addition to those added by TelemeteryEvents):

{
    type: 'metric',
    name: <name>,
    target_type: 'histogram',
    value: {
        measureUnit: <h.measureUnit>,
        sampleSize: <h.sampleSize>,
        sampleSizeUnit: <h.sampleSizeUnit>,
        max: <h.max>,
        mean: <h.mean>,
        median: <h.median>,
        min: <h.min>,

        percentile99: <h.percentile99>,
        percentile999: <h.percentile999>,

    }
}

If h has metadata, properties of metadata will be included with or override the above template.

telemetry.meter(name, m)

• name: String Name of the metric to be used for event.name property.
• m: Object Quantify calculated meter to process.
• Return: Object The event.

Helper to create "metric" event with 'target_type' of "meter". If emitter was specified in configuration, calling this helper will also emit this event. The created event object will have the following properties (in addition to those added by TelemeteryEvents):

{
    type: 'metric',
    name: <name>,
    target_type: 'meter',
    value: {
        rateUnit: <m.rateUnit>,
        updateCount: <m.updateCount>,
        updateCountUnit: <m.updateCountUnit>,

        fiveMinuteRate: <m.fiveMinuteRate>,
        fifteenMinuteRate: <m.fifteenMinuteRate>
    }
}

If m has metadata, properties of metadata will be included with or override the above template.

telemetry.metrics(metrics)

• metrics: Object Result of Quantify.getMetrics([filters]).
• Return Array Array of events.

Helper to create "metric" events for all target types. If emitter was specified in configuration, calling this helper will also emit these events.

telemetry.timer(name, t)

    value: {
        measureUnit: <t.measureUnit>,
