Converting metrics to JSON values
- Newtype wrappers with instances

Description

Encoding of ekg metrics as JSON. The encoding defined by the functions in this module are standardized and used by the ekg web UI. The purpose of this module is to let other web servers and frameworks than the one used by the ekg package expose ekg metrics.

Synopsis

Converting metrics to JSON values

sampleToJson :: Sample -> Value Source #

Encode metrics as nested JSON objects. Each "." in the metric name introduces a new level of nesting. For example, the metrics [("foo.bar", 10), ("foo.baz", "label")] are encoded as

{
  "foo": {
    "bar": {
      "type:", "c",
      "val": 10
    },
    "baz": {
      "type": "l",
      "val": "label"
    }
  }
}

valueToJson :: Value -> Value Source #

Encodes a single metric as a JSON object. Example:

{
  "type": "c",
  "val": 89460
}

Newtype wrappers with instances

newtype Sample Source #

Newtype wrapper that provides a ToJSON instances for the underlying Sample without creating an orphan instance.

Constructors

Sample Sample

Instances

Show Sample Source #
Methods showsPrec :: Int -> Sample -> ShowS # show :: Sample -> String # showList :: [Sample] -> ShowS #
ToJSON Sample Source #	Uses `sampleToJson`.
Methods toJSON :: Sample -> Value toEncoding :: Sample -> Encoding

newtype Value Source #

Newtype wrapper that provides a ToJSON instances for the underlying Value without creating an orphan instance.

Constructors

Value Value

Instances

Show Value Source #
Methods showsPrec :: Int -> Value -> ShowS # show :: Value -> String # showList :: [Value] -> ShowS #
ToJSON Value Source #	Uses `valueToJson`.
