Detailed Description

Represents a single observable characteristic (a 'statistic')

Currently it supports one of four types: integer (implemented as signed 64 bit integer), float (implemented as double), time duration (implemented with millisecond precision) and string. Absolute (setValue) and incremental (addValue) modes are supported. Statistic type is determined during its first use. Once type is set, any additional observations recorded must be of the same type. Attempting to set or extract information about other types will result in InvalidStateType exception.

Observation can be retrieved in one of getInteger, getFloat, getDuration, getString (appropriate type must be used) or getJSON, which is generic and can be used for all types.

Since Kea 1.6 multiple samples are stored for the same observation.

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum isc::stats::Observation::Type

Type of available statistics.

Note that those will later be exposed using control socket. Therefore an easy to understand names were chosen (integer instead of uint64). To avoid confusion, we will support only one type of integer and only one type of floating points. Initially, these are represented by int64_t and double. If convincing use cases appear to change them to something else, we may change the underlying type.

Enumerator
STAT_INTEGER	this statistic is unsigned 64-bit integer value
STAT_FLOAT	this statistic is a floating point value
STAT_DURATION	this statistic represents time duration
STAT_STRING	this statistic represents a string

void isc::stats::Observation::setMaxSampleAge ( const StatsDuration & duration )

Determines maximum age of samples.

Specifies that statistic name should be stored not as a single value, but rather as a set of values. The duration determines the timespan. Samples older than duration will be discarded. This is time-constrained approach. For sample count constrained approach, see setMaxSampleCount() below.

Parameters

duration determines maximum age of samples Example: To set a statistic to keep observations for the last 5 minutes, call: setMaxSampleAge(std::chrono::minutes(5)); To revert statistic to a single value, call: setMaxSampleAge(StatsDuration::zero());

void isc::stats::Observation::setMaxSampleCount ( uint32_t max_samples )

Specifies that statistic name should be stored not as a single value, but rather as a set of values. In this form, at most max_samples will be kept. When adding max_samples + 1 sample, the oldest sample will be discarded.

Parameters

max_samples how many samples of a given statistic should be kept Example: To set a statistic to keep the last 100 observations, call: setMaxSampleCount(100);
