In a microservice running gin-gonic, I'm trying to collect metrics in a router and expose them on a second one, but it seems this is not possible. Does anyone have experience in it?
All the documentation I found set the prometheus handler into the same application router.
Expected result
See promhttp_metric_handler_requests_total{code="200"} increasing for each visit of the :8000/test route
Actual result
promhttp_metric_handler_requests_total{code="200"} increase only for each visit of the :7100/metrics route
Example code
(following is a full application that can explain the issue)
package main
import (
"github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
"github.com/zsais/go-gin-prometheus"
"net/http"
)
func main() {
router1 := gin.New()
router1.GET("/test", func(c *gin.Context) {
c.String(http.StatusOK, "it works")
})
p := ginprometheus.NewPrometheus("test")
router1.Use(p.HandlerFunc())
router2 := gin.New()
p.SetMetricsPath(router2)
go func() { router2.Run(":7100") }()
router1.Run(":8000")
}
Result
The result of the previous code, after I loaded several time the endpoint :8000/test is the following and you can see that statistics of the namespace test are "empty"
