CodeMirror-promql

This project provides a mode for CodeMirror that handles syntax highlighting, linting and autocompletion for PromQL (Prometheus Query Language).

preview

Installation

This mode is available as a npm package:

npm install --save @prometheus-io/codemirror-promql

Note: You will have to manually install different packages that are part of CodeMirror, as they are a peer dependency to this package. Here are the different packages you need to install:

  • @codemirror/autocomplete
  • @codemirror/language
  • @codemirror/lint
  • @codemirror/state
  • @codemirror/view
  • @lezer/common
npm install --save @codemirror/autocomplete @codemirror/language @codemirror/lint @codemirror/state @codemirror/view @lezer/common

Note 2: that's the minimum required to install the lib. You would probably need to install as well the dependency @codemirror/basic-setup to ease the setup of codeMirror itself:

npm install --save @codemirror/basic-setup

Usage

As the setup of the PromQL language can a bit tricky in CMN, this lib provides a class PromQLExtension which is here to help you to configure the different extensions we aim to provide.

Default setup

If you want to enjoy about the different features provided without taking too much time to understand how to configure them, then the easiest way is this one:

import {PromQLExtension} from '@prometheus-io/codemirror-promql';
import {basicSetup} from '@codemirror/basic-setup';
import {EditorState} from '@codemirror/state';
import {EditorView} from '@codemirror/view';

const promQL = new PromQLExtension()
new EditorView({
    state: EditorState.create({
        extensions: [basicSetup, promQL.asExtension()],
    }),
    // eslint-disable-next-line @typescript-eslint/no-non-null-assertion
    // tslint:disable-next-line:no-non-null-assertion
    parent: document.getElementById('editor')!,
});

Using the default setup will activate:

  • syntax highlighting
  • an offline autocompletion that will suggest PromQL keywords such as functions / aggregations, depending on the context.
  • an offline linter that will display PromQL syntax errors (which is closer to what Prometheus returns)

Deactivate autocompletion - linter

In case you would like to deactivate the linter and/or the autocompletion it's simple as that:

const promQL = new PromQLExtension().activateLinter(false).activateCompletion(false) // here the linter and the autocomplete are deactivated

Linter

There is no particular configuration today for the linter. Feel free to file an issue if you have some use cases that would require configurability.

Autocompletion

The autocompletion feature provides multiple different parameters that can be used to adapt this lib to your environment.

maxMetricsMetadata

maxMetricsMetadata is the maximum number of metrics in Prometheus for which metadata is fetched. If the number of metrics exceeds this limit, no metric metadata is fetched at all.

By default, the limit is 10 000 metrics.

Use it cautiously. A high value of this limit can cause a crash of your browser due to too many data fetched.

const promQL = new PromQLExtension().setComplete({maxMetricsMetadata: 10000})

Connect the autocompletion extension to a remote Prometheus server

Connecting the autocompletion extension to a remote Prometheus server will provide autocompletion of metric names, label names, and label values.

Use the default Prometheus client
Prometheus URL

If you want to use the default Prometheus client provided by this lib, you have to provide the url used to contact the Prometheus server.

Note: this is the only mandatory parameter in case you want to use the default Prometheus client. Without this parameter, the rest of the config will be ignored, and the Prometheus client won't be initialized.

const promQL = new PromQLExtension().setComplete({remote: {url: 'https://prometheus.land'}})
Override FetchFn

In case your Prometheus server is protected and requires a special HTTP client, you can override the function fetchFn that is used to perform any required HTTP request.

const promQL = new PromQLExtension().setComplete({remote: {fetchFn: myHTTPClient}})
Duration to use for looking back when retrieving metrics / labels

If you are a bit familiar with the Prometheus API, you are aware that you can pass a time interval that is used to tell to Prometheus which period of time you are looking for when retrieving metadata (like metrics / labels).

In case you would like to provide your own duration, you can override the variable lookbackInterval. By default, the value is 12 * 60 * 60 * 1000 (12h). The value must be defined in milliseconds.

const promQL = new PromQLExtension().setComplete({remote: {lookbackInterval: 12 * 60 * 60 * 1000}})
Error Handling

You can set up your own error handler to catch any HTTP error that can occur when the PrometheusClient is contacting Prometheus.

const promQL = new PromQLExtension().setComplete({remote: {httpErrorHandler: (error: any) => console.error(error)}})
HTTP method used

By default, the Prometheus client will use the HTTP method POST when contacting Prometheus for the endpoints /api/v1/labels and /api/v1/series.

You can change it to use the HTTP method GET if you prefer.

const promQL = new PromQLExtension().setComplete({remote: {httpMethod: 'GET'}})
Override the API Prefix

The default Prometheus Client, when building the query to get data from Prometheus, is using an API prefix which is by default /api/v1.

You can override this value like this:

const promql = new PromQLExtension().setComplete({remote: {apiPrefix: '/my/api/prefix'}})
Cache

The default client has an embedded cache that is used to store the different metrics and labels retrieved from a remote Prometheus server.

Max Age

The data are stored in the cache for a limited amount of time defined by the variable maxAge which is by default 5 minutes. The value must be defined in milliseconds.

const promQL = new PromQLExtension().setComplete({remote: {cache: {maxAge: 5 * 60 * 1000}}})
Initial Metric List

The cache can be initialized with a list of metric names. It is useful when you already have the list of the metrics somewhere else in your application, and you would like to share this list with the embedded Prometheus client of codemirror-promql.

Note: keep in mind that this list will be kept into the embedded Prometheus client until the time defined by maxAge.

const promQL = new PromQLExtension().setComplete({
    remote: {
        cache: {
            initialMetricList: [
                'ALERTS',
                'ALERTS_FOR_STATE',
                'alertmanager_alerts',
                'alertmanager_alerts_invalid_total',
                'alertmanager_alerts_received_total',
            ]
        }
    }
})
Override the default Prometheus client

In case you are not satisfied by our default Prometheus client, you can still provide your own. It has to implement the interface PrometheusClient .

const promQL = new PromQLExtension().setComplete({remote: MyPrometheusClient})

Provide your own implementation of the autocompletion

In case you would like to provide you own implementation of the autocompletion, you can simply do it like that:

const promQL = new PromQLExtension().setComplete({completeStrategy: myCustomImpl})

Note: In case this parameter is provided, then the rest of the configuration is ignored.
