NAME
Monitor::MetricsAPI::Metric::Boolean - Boolean metric class for Monitor::MetricsAPI
SYNOPSIS
use Monitor::MetricsAPI;
my $collector = Monitor::MetricsAPI->new(
metrics => { protocols => { ssl { enabled => 'boolean' } } }
);
# Later on, when your app validates its config and turns on SSL:
$collector->metric('protocols/ssl/enabled')->true;
DESCRIPTION
Boolean metrics allow you to track the true/false/unknown state of something in your application. All boolean metrics are initialized as unknown and must be explicitly set to either true or false.
METHODS
Boolean metrics disable the set() method from Monitor::MetricsAPI::Metric (a warn() is emitted and no action is taken), and provide only the following methods for manipulating their values.
true
Sets the metric to true.
false
Sets the metric to false.
unknown
Sets the metric to unknown (will emit a blank value in reporting output).
set
Overrides the set() method provided by the base Metric class. Emits a warning whenever called, and performs no other actions.
