Examples¶
metric("requests_total", return_code >= 400 and return_code <= 599)
Select the metric ‘requests_total’ within this dataset where return_code is between 400 and 599. The dataset must already implement the “metric” interface.
metric("requests_total", label:"Request Rate", type:"cumulativeCounter", unit:"1/s", description:"Number of requests processed per second.", rollup:"rate", aggregate:"sum")
Select the metric ‘requests_total’ for rollup, and overwrite the new metric’s definition with the specified label, type, unit, description, rollup method and aggregate method. The dataset must implement the “metric” interface.
