lib.rs:

A library that exposes metrics sent to cantal

See mmap protocol for more information about the protocol.

Example

use libcantal::{Counter, Integer, Value, start, print};

// Declare metrics as static variables, so you can use it in a module
// freely, i.e. increment/decrement at any time
lazy_static! {
    static ref COUNTER: Counter = Counter::new();
    static ref INTEGER: Integer = Integer::new();
}

// Put metrics in a collection
let metrics = [
    (json!({"metric": "counter"}), &*COUNTER as &Value),
    (json!({"metric": "integer"}), &*INTEGER as &Value),
];
// The collection guard. When it's alive, all the metrics are exposed
let _coll = start(&metrics[..]).expect("cantal works");

// ...
// Somewhere later use the metrics:
COUNTER.incr(1);
INTEGER.set((COUNTER.get() / 7) as i64);

// And at any time you can print the collection for debugging
print(&metrics[..], stdout()).ok();
