Prometheus Example

This example demonstrates how to use the OpenTelemetry SDK to instrument a simple application using Prometheus as the metric exporter and expose the metrics via HTTP.

These are collected by a Prometheus instance which is configured to pull these metrics via HTTP.

How to run

Prerequisites

Java 1.7
Docker 19.03

1 - Compile

../gradlew shadowJar

2 - Run Prometheus

Start Prometheus instance with a configuration that sets up a HTTP collection job for 127.0.0.1:19090

See prometheus.yml

docker run --network="host" --rm -it \
    --name prometheus \
    -v $(pwd)/prometheus.yml:/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml \
    prom/prometheus

3 - Start the Application

java -cp build/libs/opentelemetry-examples-prometheus-0.1.0-SNAPSHOT-all.jar io.opentelemetry.example.prometheus.PrometheusExample 19090

4 - Open the Prometheus UI

Navigate to:
