The list of metrics is incomplete

[rodinasophie]

Which feature your question relates to?
Prometheus metrics

Question details
I've installed chproxy of version chproxy ver. 1.25.0, rev. 466b4bf816ec1d91f5bfb855d0ec14b946674a0b, built at 2023-09-04T07:39:46Z and I try to retrieve the list of prometheus metrics and make work the dashboard, provided by the official chproxy repo.

When I run http://127.0.0.1:9090/metrics on my chproxy host, I get the list of metrics, but it's incomplete and the dashboard is not working. I don't have any network restrictions, what am I doing wrong?

My host config:

hack_me_please: true
server:
  http:
    listen_addr: ":9090"

users:
  - name: "default"
    to_cluster: "default"
    to_user: "default"

# by default each cluster has `default` user which can be overridden by section `users`
clusters:
  - name: "default"
    nodes: ['host-1:8123', 'host-2:8123']

Additional context/motivations
The metrics I expect:
E.g. request_sum_total, request_success_total, etc., see https://www.chproxy.org/configuration/metrics/

The result I get:

I think the reason is the lack of requests, I close the issue.
