a issue about prometheus metrics timestamp and for great response ! thank u very much !

[annan211]

#Hi , everybody ，I have a big problem about Prometheus when I send some metrics data to pushgateway
With simpleclient_pushgateway java API 0.3.0

The problem is I can not send metrics data with timestamp , but I need it so much .

I have coverd DropwizardExports class with PromDropwizardExports and override fromCounter / fromGauge / fromHistogram / fromTimers and
Add timestamp to Sample

Ex :

List fromCounter(String dropwizardName, Counter counter) {
String name = sanitizeMetricName(dropwizardName);
Sample sample = new Sample(name, new ArrayList(), new ArrayList(),
(new Long(counter.getCount())).doubleValue(),System.currentTimeMillis());
LOGGER.info("Counter Sample is : " + sample);
return Arrays.asList(new MetricFamilySamples(name, Type.GAUGE, getHelpMessage(dropwizardName, counter),
Arrays.asList(sample)));
}

, but it don not work , ti is very important ,I wait for your great response !

I think pushing with timestamp is rejected since pushgateway version 0.4.0 (see changelog)

More info can be found here in this issue prometheus/pushgateway#109
