This is based on https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/pull/1997.
This adds contexts to the relevant Storage methods and already passes
PromQL's new per-query context into the storage's query methods.
The immediate motivation supporting multi-tenancy in Frankenstein, but
this could also be used by Prometheus's normal local storage to support
cancellations and timeouts at some point.
For Weaveworks' Frankenstein, we need to support multitenancy. In
Frankenstein, we initially solved this without modifying the promql
package at all: we constructed a new promql.Engine for every
query and injected a storage implementation into that engine which would
be primed to only collect data for a given user.
This is problematic to upstream, however. Prometheus assumes that there
is only one engine: the query concurrency gate is part of the engine,
and the engine contains one central cancellable context to shut down all
queries. Also, creating a new engine for every query seems like overkill.
Thus, we want to be able to pass per-query contexts into a single engine.
This change gets rid of the promql.Engine's built-in base context and
allows passing in a per-query context instead. Central cancellation of
all queries is still possible by deriving all passed-in contexts from
one central one, but this is now the responsibility of the caller. The
central query context is now created in main() and passed into the
relevant components (web handler / API, rule manager).
In a next step, the per-query context would have to be passed to the
storage implementation, so that the storage can implement multi-tenancy
or other features based on the contextual information.
This will avoid duplicate MetricFamilies, thereby shrinking the size
of the federation payload and also creating legal text format.
Also, add unit tests for federation. They were also needed for the
previous state of the code, but were missing.
I got feedback from different sources about rules and targets being
too heavy in the status tab if their are lots of them.
This change also allows for more fine-granular locking.
This is with `golint -min_confidence=0.5`.
I left several lint warnings untouched because they were either
incorrect or I felt it was better not to change them at the moment.
This got broken in
78047326b4
since it stopped using the DefaultServeMux.
This approach will defer pprof requests to the DefaultServeMux, which
may or may not have pprof enabled (in Prometheus, it gets it included in
main.go). An alternative approach would be to duplicate the four lines in
https://golang.org/src/net/http/pprof/pprof.go#L62. When choosing that
approach though, we would not automatically gain any new endpoints added
by net/http/pprof or other /debug endpoints in the future.
Besides fixing https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/issues/805 by
making the entire externally reachable server URL configurable, this
adds tests for the "globalURL" template function and makes it easier to
test other such functions in the future.
This breaks the `web.Hostname` flag (and introduces `web.external-url`).
This flag is likely only used by few users, so I hope that's
justifiable.
Fixes https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/issues/805
This commit adds a federation handler on /federate. It accepts `match[]`
query parameters containing vector selectors. Their intersection determines
the in-memory metrics that are returned in the same way as the
/metrics endpoint does (modulo sorting).
Version information is determined at build-time and thus there is
no need to pass it down from main. In its own package it can
be used from various other packages.
Main changes:
- Switched to using `go-bindata` in place of `scripts/embed-static.sh`.
- Support for building Prometheus without a `Makefile`.
- Minor typo fix to make Prometheus build on Windows (without Makefiles).
Please note that this does not mean that prometheus will work on Windows.
There are still failing tests!
Previously we redirected any non-existent path to the root (or path
prefix).
The new behavior:
With no path prefix:
- "" -> "/"
- "/biz" -> 404
With path prefix of "/foo/bar":
- "" -> "/foo/bar/"
- "/" -> "/foo/bar/"
- "/foo/bar" -> "/foo/bar/"
- "/biz" -> /foo/bar/biz"
(anything not starting with the path prefix gets the prefix prepended)
- "/foo/bar/biz" -> 404
This change is conceptually very simple, although the diff is large. It
switches logging from "github.com/golang/glog" to
"github.com/prometheus/log", while not actually changing any log
messages. V(1)-style logging has been changed to be log.Debug*().
