* Renamed `MetricNamer` to `SeriesConverter` and renamed `MetricNameConverter` to `MetricNamer`.
* Simplified the `metricConverter` code.
* Greatly simplified the `externalSeriesRegistry` and removed the `externalInfoMap` code.
* Fixed doc comment format.
* Still several `TODO`s to address.
* Wiped out a ton of warnings about comments.
* Created consts for `MetricType` values.
* `externalInfoMap` can now track multiple series with the same name/namespace and different labels.
* `namespace` parameter of external metrics queries is now respected (albeit very rudimentarily)
* Metric converter values for external metrics are now converted the same way as for custom metrics (probably still some opportunity for consolidation).
* Lots of TODOs actually done.
* Deleted a lot of commented out code.
Fixed:
* `basicMetricLister` wasn't applying the appropriate start time because I had forgotten to set the `lookback`.
There are still a number of issues:
* The `externalPrometheusProvider` is not hooked up to the web application yet, so it doesn't serve requests.
* The namespace and label approach used in `external_info_map.go` is horrifically incorrect. It doesn't appropriately store multiple series with the same name but different labels.
* The configuration is still not updated to appropriately handle external metrics, it's sort of half-piggy-backing on the pre-existing work.
* Some bug fixes found during testing/test repair.
* Trying to tease apart the various responsibilities of `metricNamer` into smaller chunks and adding tests for each individual chunk.
* Updating the `provider_test` and `series_registry_test` to fix failures.
* Breaking out some types to make the functionality more composable and easier to digest. (e.g. `basicMetricLister` interacts with Prometheus and `periodicMetricLister` periodically invokes `basicMetricLister`.
* Pulling out some of the type embedding between `basicSeriesRegistry` and `MetricLister` to make it easier to digest.
* Deleting the `/metric-converter` code because I'm pretty certain it's not going to be necessary as things transition to using the namer-based configuration.
* Some light-ish refactoring in `metricNamer` to get some re-use out of query generation in preparation for using it with external metrics.
This commit introduces advanced configuration. The rate-interval and
label-prefix flags are removed, and replaced by a configuration file
that allows you to specify series queries and the rules for transforming
those into metrics queries and API resources.
This allows setting a prefix on the labels used to determine which
resources a series belongs to. The prefix may be set using the
`--label-prefix` flag.
This commit switches to using the boilerplate versions of
a couple different utilities, including the metric info normalization
and the common error types.
Previously, if we encountered an error while trying to update our series
list, we'd return an error, aborting the processing of the entire batch.
This could lead to the list of available metrics being severely out of
date. Instead, we simply log an error when we fail to process a metric
name, and skip it.
k8s.io/custom-metrics-boilerplate was "renamed" to
"github.com/directxman12/custom-metrics-boilerplate". This updates all
references to point to the correct location.
The initial functionality works. There's still a number of TODOs to
clean up, and some edge cases to work around, and some errors that could
be handled better.
