Appending to the storage can block for a long time. Timing out
scrapes can also cause longer blocks. This commit avoids that those
blocks affect other compnents than the target itself.
Also the Target interface was removed.
The target implementation and interface contain methods only serving a
specific purpose of the templates. They were moved to the template
as they operate on more fundamental target data.
With this commit, sending SIGHUP to the Prometheus process will reload
and apply the configuration file. The different components attempt
to handle failing changes gracefully.
This commits renames the RuleManager to Manager as the package
name is 'rules' now. The unused layer of abstraction of the
RuleManager interface is removed.
This commit shifts responsibility for maintaining targets from providers and
pools to the target manager. Target groups have a source name that identifies
them for updates.
This adds the population standard deviation and
variance as aggregation functions, useful for
spotting how many standard deviations some samples
are from the mean.
Don't handle `0` as a special timestamp value for "now" anymore, except
in the `QueryRange()` case, where existing API consumers still expect
`0` to mean "now".
Also, properly return errors now for malformed timestamp/duration
float values.
/api/targets was undocumented and never used and also broken.
Showing instance and job labels on the status page (next to targets)
does not make sense as those labels are set in an obvious way.
Also add a doc comment to TargetStateToClass.
The one central sample ingestion channel has caused a variety of
trouble. This commit removes it. Targets and rule evaluation call an
Append method directly now. To incorporate multiple storage backends
(like OpenTSDB), storage.Tee forks the Append into two different
appenders.
Note that the tsdb queue manager had its own queue anyway. It was a
queue after a queue... Much queue, so overhead...
Targets have their own little buffer (implemented as a channel) to
avoid stalling during an http scrape. But a new scrape will only be
started once the old one is fully ingested.
The contraption of three pipelined ingesters was removed. A Target is
an ingester itself now. Despite more logic in Target, things should be
less confusing now.
Also, remove lint and vet warnings in ast.go.
- original series data is saved so it can be re-transformed after
Rickshaw's stacking modified the series data
- always reconstruct graphs from scratch instead of updating the
settings of an existing one (simplification)
- always wipe and recreate all graph-related DOM elements completely so
that no left-over event handlers cause background event handlers
This is related to #454. Queries now timeout after a duration set by
the -query.timeout flag. The TotalEvalTimer is now started/stopped
inside any of the ast.Eval* functions.
When Rickshaw was updated to 1.5.1 in
fd43daf82e,
the Rickshaw upstream package now contained 3 different D3 files:
d3.min.js
d3.v2.js
d3.v3.js
For details on why that is, see
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/d3-js/lXQgKA7mtEw
For the 1.5.1 Rickshaw to work properly (being able to format dates with
D3 without causing a JS error), it needs d3.v2.js or d3.v3.js, not the
d3.min.js one. I chose to update us to d3.v3.js now, since that is the
most recent and minified version, and I didn't see any problems with it
(also, the current Rickshaw examples are using that D3 version).
Currently, displaying graphs with a range >14d is broken. This fixes
that.
