Interface LongCounter

All Superinterfaces:

Counter<LongCounter.BoundLongCounter>, Instrument, InstrumentWithBinding<LongCounter.BoundLongCounter>

@ThreadSafe
public interface LongCounter
extends Counter<LongCounter.BoundLongCounter>

Counter instrument, to report instantaneous measurements of long values. Cumulative values can go up or stay the same, but can never go down. Cumulative values cannot be negative.

Example:

 class YourClass {

   private static final Meter meter = OpenTelemetry.getMeterRegistry().get("my_library_name");
   private static final LongCounter counter =
       meter.
           .longCounterBuilder("processed_jobs")
           .setDescription("Processed jobs")
           .setUnit("1")
           .setLabelKeys(Collections.singletonList("Key"))
           .build();
   // It is recommended that the API user keep a reference to a Bound Counter.
   private static final BoundLongCounter someWorkBound =
       counter.getBound(Collections.singletonList("SomeWork"));

   void doSomeWork() {
      // Your code here.
      someWorkBound.add(10);
   }
 }

Method Detail

add

void add(long delta,
         String... labelKeyValuePairs)

Adds the given delta to the current value. The values can be negative iff monotonic was set to false.

The value added is associated with the current Context and provided LabelSet.

Parameters:

delta - the value to add.

labelKeyValuePairs - the set of labels to be associated to this recording.

Since:

0.1.0

bind

LongCounter.BoundLongCounter bind(String... labelKeyValuePairs)

Description copied from interface: InstrumentWithBinding

Returns a Bound Instrument associated with the specified labels. Multiples requests with the same set of labels may return the same Bound Instrument instance.

It is recommended that callers keep a reference to the Bound Instrument instead of always calling this method for every operation.

Specified by:

bind in interface InstrumentWithBinding<LongCounter.BoundLongCounter>

Parameters:

labelKeyValuePairs - the set of labels, as key-value pairs.

Returns:

a Bound Instrument
