Interceptor/middleware for gRPC that intruments requests with telemetry events. Heavily inspired by Plug.Telemetry

GRPCTelemetry

Interceptor/middleware for gRPC that intruments requests with :telemetry events. Heavily inspired by Plug.Telemetry

Installation

Add as a dependency in your mix.exs:

def deps do
  [
    {:grpc_telemetry, "1.0.0-rc.2"}
  ]
end

Using

Add the interceptor as the first in your endpoint:

defmodule MyApp.GRPC.Endpoint do
  use GRPC.Endpoint

  intercept(GRPCTelemetry, event_prefix: [:my_app, :grpc, :endpoint])

  run(MyApp.GRPC.Server)
end

You can now use the :telemetry events to export metrics, or trace your gRPC requests.

Telemetry.Metrics Example

Example usage with Telemetry.Metrics

TelemetryMetricsPrometheus.child_spec(
  metrics: [
    counter("grpc.request.count",
      event_name: "my_app.grpc.endpoint.start",
      tags: [:service_name, :method_name]
    ),
    counter("grpc.response.count",
      event_name: "my_app.grpc.endpoint.stop",
      tags: [:service_name, :method_name, :status_code]
    ),
    distribution("grpc.response.duration",
      event_name: "my_app.grpc.endpoint.stop",
      tags: [:service_name, :method_name, :status_code],
      buckets: [0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.8, 1.6, 3.2, 6.4, 12.8, 25.6, 51.2],
      unit: {:native, :second}
    )
  ]
