The closing of Prometheus now using a sync.Once wrapper to prevent
any accidental multiple invocations of it, which could trigger
corruption or a race condition. The shutdown process is made more
verbose through logging.
A not-enabled by default web handler has been provided to trigger a
remote shutdown if requested for debugging purposes.

Due to on going issues, we've decided to remove gorest. It started with gorest
not being thread-safe (it does introspection to create a new handler which is
an easy process to mess up with multiple threads of execution):
https://code.google.com/p/gorest/issues/detail?id=15
While the issue has been marked fixed, it looks like the patch has introduced
more problems than the original issue and simply doesn't work properly.
I'm not sure the behaviour was thought through properly. If a new instance is
needed every request then a handler-factory is needed or the library needs to
set expectations about how the new objects should interact with their
constructor state.
While it was tempting to try out another routing library, I think for now
it's better to use dumb vanilla Go routing. At least until we decide which
URL format we intend to standardize on.

This commit fixes a critique of the old storage API design, whereby
the input parameters were always as raw bytes and never Protocol
Buffer messages that encapsulated the data, meaning every place a
read or mutation was conducted needed to manually perform said
translations on its own. This is taxing.

An design question was open for me in the beginning was whether to
serialize other types to disk, but Protocol Buffers quickly won out,
which allows us to drop support for other types. This is a good
start to cleaning up a lot of cruft in the storage stack and
can let us eventually decouple the various moving parts into
separate subsystems for easier reasoning.
This commit is not strictly required, but it is a start to making
the rest a lot more enjoyable to interact with.
This commit simplifies the way that compactions across a database's
keyspace occur due to reading the LevelDB internals. Secondarily it
introduces the database size estimation mechanisms.
Include database health and help interfaces.
Add database statistics; remove status goroutines.
This commit kills the use of Go routines to expose status throughout
the web components of Prometheus. It also dumps raw LevelDB status
on a separate /databases endpoint.
To achieve that, this PR
- converts static/index.html ("console") and graph to templates
- moved the handlebars template to separated file to avoid escaping issues
Route changes:
/status -> /
/static -> /console
/static/graph.html -> /graph
- utility/embed-static.sh, get called in Makefile to create go map from files
- web/blob/blob.go implements http Handle for serving the files from the map
- web/status.go uses blog.GetFile() to get the template file
The assets are gzipped and decompressed on demand.
This roughly comprises the following changes:
- index target pools by job instead of scrape interval
- make targets within a pool exchangable while preserving existing
health state for targets
- allow exchanging targets via HTTP API (PUT)
- show target lists in /status (experimental, for own debug use)
