how to add labels with pushgateway example?

Same problem with Counter

Ok, the documentation needs updating. I got labels working like this:

from prometheus_client import Counter
c = Counter('my_requests_total', 'HTTP Failures', labelnames=('method', 'endpoint'))
c.labels('get', '/').inc()

[yosefy]

yes but how do we set the value of the metrics then?
without adding labels dir(g) gives
['class', 'delattr', 'dict', 'doc', 'format', 'getattribute', 'hash', 'init', 'module', 'new', 'reduce', 'reduce_ex', 'repr', 'setattr', 'sizeof', 'str', 'subclasshook', 'weakref', '_reserved_labelnames', '_samples', '_type', '_value', 'collect', 'dec', 'inc', 'set', 'set_function', 'set_to_current_time', 'time', 'track_inprogress']

but after adding labelnames it becomes
['class', 'delattr', 'dict', 'doc', 'format', 'getattribute', 'hash', 'init', 'module', 'new', 'reduce', 'reduce_ex', 'repr', 'setattr', 'sizeof', 'str', 'subclasshook', 'weakref', '_kwargs', '_labelnames', '_lock', '_metrics', '_name', '_samples', '_type', '_wrappedClass', 'collect', 'labels', 'remove']

and doesnt have set method anymore
