如何一次查询所有/执行器/指标？

Question

I'm using the Spring boot actuator as an internal API that is used by another API to monitor the Spring Boot application.

The problem is that you have to query each and every property. ie /actuator/metrics/jvm.memory.used

So for every GET request, I have to make multiple requests (as many as there are metrics).

Is it possible to query all of them at once?

Answer 1

You don't have an api given by spring boot out of the box, but you can make it very easly if you want to. You need to use the endpoint MetricsEndpoint which is used by the framework when querying the /metrics apis.

You need to @Autowire it in your service and afterwards you can use it get the names of all metrics by using the method listNames() . Starting from the list of provided names you can query the detail for each metric at a time.

Here you have the reference page.

Answer 2

If you use Prometheus it will expose new /actuator/prometheus endpoint which will list all the metrics at once. See this tutorial for examples :
