------------------------------
Labels: api-addition api-change (was: )
> API to introspect metric semantics
> ----------------------------------
>
> Key: TS-2608
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-2608
> Project: Traffic Server
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Management API, Stats
> Reporter: James Peach
> Labels: api-addition, api-change
> Fix For: 5.0.0
>
>
> We ought to have an API that apps can use to query the semantics of a metric.
> For example, there's no way to know whether a metric is a counter or an
> instantaneous value. {{traffic_top}} hard-codes a number of these, and I've
> taken the same approach for my [epic|https://code.google.com/p/epicnms/]
> plugin.
> As an extension, it would also be helpful to know the units (e.g., bytes,
> seconds, count).
