# Prometheus Client Service Output Plugin

This plugin starts a Prometheus Client, listening on a port defined in the
configuration file.

It exposes all metrics on `/metrics` to be polled by a Prometheus server.
Add prometheus_client service output module, update prometheus client - Adds a client implementation using the prometheus go_client library that exposes metrics. - Adds a new type of output "ServiceOutput" which follows inline with the "ServicePlugin", adding a Stop and Start method for the service This change also requires the newer prometheus/client_golang code, so the prometheus plugin needed to be changed. Added the following to Godep: - bitbucket.org/ww/goautoneg (in github.com/common/expfmt/encode.go) - prometheus/common/expfmt (in plugins/prometheus.go) - github.com/prometheus/common/model (in plugins/prometheus.go) - github.com/prometheus/procfs (in github.com/client_golang/prometheus) - github.com/beorn7/perks/quantile (in github.com/client_golang/prometheus) X-Github-Meta: closes #306 2015-10-22 16:17:57 +00:00			`# Prometheus Client Service Output Plugin`
