Go libraries shared across Prometheus components and libraries.

Overview

Commoncircleci is a repository that consists of Go libraries used within the Prometheus project. These libraries serve as shared components and are designed to bring together various functionalities and features in a cohesive manner. Although the libraries are primarily intended for internal use within Prometheus, they can also be utilized externally. It is important to note that external usage may not come with stability guarantees.

Features

  • Assets: Allows for embedding of static assets along with gzip support.
  • Config: Offers a common configuration structure that can be used across different components.
  • Promlog: Provides a logging wrapper around go-kit/log for easier integration and usage.
  • Promfmt: Facilitates the decoding and encoding of data in the exposition format.
  • Model: Includes shared data structures that can be utilized by multiple components.
  • Route: Offers a routing wrapper around httprouter, utilizing the context.Context functionality.
  • Server: Provides common servers that can be used as a foundation for building Prometheus components.
  • Version: Offers version information and metrics related to the Prometheus project.

Summary

Commoncircleci is a collection of Go libraries that serve as shared components within the Prometheus project. These libraries provide functionalities such as embedding static assets, common configuration structures, logging wrappers, encoding and decoding of data, shared data structures, routing wrappers, and common servers. However, it is important to note that while these libraries can be used externally, they are primarily intended for internal use within Prometheus, and external usage may not come with stability guarantees. Overall, the Commoncircleci libraries aim to enhance development workflows and facilitate the creation of robust Prometheus components.
