[#prometheus]
= Prometheus

OliveTin supports basic Prometheus metrics, and the project is interested to hear about what more metrics people would find useful, as well!

To enable Prometheus support;

.`config.yaml`
[source,yaml]
----
logLevel: INFO

prometheus:
    enabled: true
    defaultGoMetrics: false
----

It is required to restart OliveTin after changing the `prometheus` configuration.

The `defaultGoMetrics` option will enable the default Go metrics, which expose metrics like go_memstats_alloc_bytes, or go_memstats_heap_alloc_bytes,
and generally most people don't need these.

This will give you metrics available at http://yourserver:1337/metrics. The page should look something like this;
