promrus

Logrus hook to expose the number of log messages as Prometheus metrics:

log_messages{level="debug"}
log_messages{level="info"}
log_messages{level="warning"}
log_messages{level="error"}

Usage

Sample code:

package main

import (
	"net/http"
	"time"

	"github.com/prometheus/client_golang/prometheus/promhttp"
	log "github.com/sirupsen/logrus"
	"github.com/weaveworks/promrus"
)

func main() {
	// Create the Prometheus hook:
	hook := promrus.MustNewPrometheusHook()

	// Configure logrus to use the Prometheus hook:
	log.AddHook(hook)

	// Expose Prometheus metrics via HTTP, as you usually would:
	go http.ListenAndServe(":8080", promhttp.Handler())

	// Log with logrus, as you usually would.
	// Every time the program generates a log message, a Prometheus counter is incremented for the corresponding level.
	for {
		log.Infof("foo")
		time.Sleep(1 * time.Second)
	}
}

Run the above program:

$ go get -u github.com/golang/dep/cmd/dep
$ dep ensure
$ go run main.go
INFO[0000] foo
INFO[0001] foo
INFO[0002] foo
[...]
INFO[0042] foo

Scrape the Prometheus metrics exposed by the hook:

$ curl -fsS localhost:8080 | grep log_messages
# HELP log_messages Total number of log messages.
# TYPE log_messages counter
log_messages{level="debug"} 0
log_messages{level="error"} 0
log_messages{level="info"} 42
log_messages{level="warning"} 0

Setup development environment

$ go get github.com/golang/dep/cmd/dep
$ dep ensure
