Class Gauge.Builder<T>

  • Type Parameters:
    T - The type of the state object from which the gauge value is extracted.
    Enclosing interface:
    Gauge
    public static class Gauge.Builder<T>
extends java.lang.Object
    Fluent builder for gauges.

    • Method Detail

      • tags

        public Gauge.Builder<T> tags​(java.lang.String... tags)
        Parameters:
        tags - Must be an even number of arguments representing key/value pairs of tags.
        Returns:
        The gauge builder with added tags.

      • tags

        public Gauge.Builder<T> tags​(java.lang.Iterable<Tag> tags)
        Parameters:
        tags - Tags to add to the eventual gauge.
        Returns:
        The gauge builder with added tags.

      • tag

        public Gauge.Builder<T> tag​(java.lang.String key,
                            java.lang.String value)
        Parameters:
        key - The tag key.
        value - The tag value.
        Returns:
        The gauge builder with a single added tag.

      • description

        public Gauge.Builder<T> description​(@Nullable
                                    java.lang.String description)
        Parameters:
        description - Description text of the eventual gauge.
        Returns:
        The gauge builder with added description.

      • baseUnit

        public Gauge.Builder<T> baseUnit​(@Nullable
                                 java.lang.String unit)
        Parameters:
        unit - Base unit of the eventual gauge.
        Returns:
        The gauge builder with added base unit.

      • synthetic

        @Incubating(since="1.1.0")
public Gauge.Builder<T> synthetic​(Meter.Id syntheticAssociation)
        For internal use. Marks a gauge as a derivative of another metric. For example, percentiles and histogram gauges generated by HistogramGauges are derivatives of a Timer or DistributionSummary.

        This method may be removed in future minor or major releases if we find a way to mark derivatives in a private way that does not have other API compatibility consequences.

        Parameters:
        syntheticAssociation - The meter id of a meter for which this metric is a synthetic derivative.
        Returns:
        The gauge builder with an added synthetic association.

      • strongReference

        @Incubating(since="1.1.0")
public Gauge.Builder<T> strongReference​(boolean strong)
        Indicates that the gauge should maintain a strong reference on the object upon which its instantaneous value is determined.
        Parameters:
        strong - Whether or not to maintain a strong reference on the gauged object.
        Returns:
        The gauge builder with altered strong reference semantics.
        Since:
        1.1.0

      • register

        public Gauge register​(MeterRegistry registry)
        Add the gauge to a single registry, or return an existing gauge in that registry. The returned gauge will be unique for each registry, but each registry is guaranteed to only create one gauge for the same combination of name and tags.
        Parameters:
        registry - A registry to add the gauge to, if it doesn't already exist.
        Returns:
        A new or existing gauge.
