This will allow you to easily add Prometheus metrics to your Flask applications.
This extension instruments every flask route and exports the following metrics:
- Histogram:
<myapp_flask_request_latency_seconds> {'endpoint', 'method'} - Summary:
<myapp_flask_request_count> {'endpoint','method','http_status'}
pip install flask_prom
For serving Prometheus metrics on the same port as your Flask application.
from flask import Flask
from flask_prom import monitor
app = Flask("myapp")
@app.route('/')
def hello():
return 'Hello'
app.wsgi_app = monitor(app, path="/metrics")
app.run()
Then visit localhost:8000/metrics to see your metrics. They are served from the
same port as your application!
For creating a separate HTTP server to serve prometheus metrics.
from flask import Flask
from flask_prom import monitor
app = Flask("myapp")
@app.route('/')
def hello():
return 'Hello'
monitor(app, path="/metrics", http_server=True, port=9090, addr="127.0.0.1")
app.run()
Then visit localhost:9090/metrics to see your metrics.
This python library was forked from https://github.com/sbarratt/flask-prometheus, since it was no longer being maintained.
