------------------------------------
Hey Chesner,
After going through slf4j and log4j documentation and your past work in
progress,
I believe that i do need to have an understanding of metrics in depth. So
should i get acquainted with that or am i going in the wrong direction? I am
currently unaware about counters, gauges, meters, histograms, etc.
> Implement a slf4j metric reporter

> Key: FLINK-4831
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-4831
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Metrics
> Affects Versions: 1.1.2
> Reporter: Chesnay Schepler
> Assignee: Sumit Sarin
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: easyfix, starter
>
> For debugging purpose it would be very useful to have a log4j metric
> reporter. If you don't want to setup a metric backend you currently have to
> rely on JMX, which a) works a bit differently than other reporters (for
> example it doesn't extend AbstractReporter) and b) makes it a bit tricky to
> analyze results as metrics are cleaned up once a job finishes.
