# metrics-bundler
> A **super** basic server bundling metrics and exposting them
The metrics bunder is a service receiving metrics from other services bunding them for further user in prometheus and other time series databases.
## Functions (read / write metrics)
First of all, writing metrics works by submitting a POST request to the /metrics endpoint:
```bash
$ url -X POST --data "key=number&value=800" https://metrics-bundler.nbg1.emile.space/metrics
```
After that, a GET request can be submitted to the same endpoint (`/metrics`). It returns all of the
metrics submitted:
```bash
$ curl -X GET https://metrics-bundler.nbg1.emile.space/metrics
number 800.000000
```
## Prometheus integration
Prometheus can be instructed to use this by creating a new job in the prometheus configuration file:
```
...
- job_name: 'metrics-bundler'
scrape_interval: 5s
static_configs:
- targets: ['<hostname>:<port>']
...
```
Using the job a above, prometheus is instructed to scrape the /metrics endpoint of the given host every 5 seconds.
