Metric helpers

Question

Closed this issue a year ago · 4 comments

Implement helpers to easily send custom metrics to AppSignal without having to understand OpenTelemetry metrics.

Ideally expose the same API as the Ruby implementation: https://docs.appsignal.com/metrics/custom.html#gauge

Note that we currently only support OpenTelemetry counters and gauges, not OpenTelemetry histograms (which would be AppSignal distribution values)

See #122 for sample data helpers. Will be documented as part of https://github.com/appsignal/appsignal-docs/issues/1492.

Related Slack discussion about how to make gauges work that have a somewhat similar API to our other AppSignal integrations.
