This commit employs explicit memory freeing for the in-memory storage
arenas. Secondarily, we take advantage of smaller channel buffer sizes
in the test.
Instead of externally handling timeouts when scraping a target, we set
timeouts on the HTTP connection. This ensures that we don't leak
goroutines on timeouts.
[fixes#181]
Primary changes:
* Strictly typed unmarshalling of metric values
* Schema types are contained by the processor (no "type entity002")
Minor changes:
* Added ProcessorFunc type for expressing processors as simple
functions.
* Added non-destructive `Merge` method to `model.LabelSet`
ProcessorForRequestHeader now looks first for a header like
`Content-Type: application/json; schema="prometheus/telemetry";
version="0.0.1"` before falling back to checking
`X-Prometheus-API-Version`.
We're currently timestamping samples with the time at the end of a scrape
iteration. It makes more sense to use a timestamp from the beginning of the
scrape for two reasons:
a) this time is more relevant to the scraped values than the time at the
end of the HTTP-GET + JSON decoding work.
b) it reduces sample timestamp jitter if we measure at the beginning, and
not at the completion of a scrape.
In the current /status implementation, we cannot divine what the
target's state is but rather get an integer constant for it. This
commit, stringifies the constants.
This roughly comprises the following changes:
- index target pools by job instead of scrape interval
- make targets within a pool exchangable while preserving existing
health state for targets
- allow exchanging targets via HTTP API (PUT)
- show target lists in /status (experimental, for own debug use)
Right now, futureState is only used to give hints to the health scheduler, but
nowhere is this future state persisted into the target's state field, so we
don't actually track a target's state over time.
We have an open question of how long does it take for each target
pool to have the state retrieved from all participating elements.
This commit starts by providing insight into this.
client_golang was updated to support full label-oriented telemetry,
which introduced interface incompatibilities with the previous
version of Prometheus. To alleviate this, a general fetching and
processing dispatching system has been created, which discriminates
and processes according to the version of input.
Future tests around the ``TargetPool`` and ``TargetManager`` and
friends will be a lot easier when the concrete behaviors of
``Target`` can be extracted out. Plus, each ``Target``, I suspect,
will have its own resolution and query strategy.
``Target`` will be refactored down the road to support various
nuanced endpoint types. Thusly incorporating the scheduling
behavior within it will be problematic. To that end, the scheduling
behavior has been moved into a separate assistance type to improve
conciseness and testability.
``make format`` was also run.

``TargetPool`` is a pool of targets pending scraping. For now, it
uses the ``heap.Interface`` from ``container/heap`` to provide a
priority queue for the system to scrape from the next target.
It is my supposition that we'll use a model whereby we create a
``TargetPool`` for each scrape interval, into which ``Target``
instances are registered.
