Release v0.9.1 (deduplicated metrics and CreateTimeSeriesRequests)
With these release, we've fixed a years-long standing issue in which uploading duplicate metrics within the same TimeSeries would cause this kind of error
err: rpc error: code = InvalidArgument desc = One or more TimeSeries could not be written:
Field timeSeries[?] had an invalid value: Duplicate TimeSeries encountered.
Only one point can be written per TimeSeries per request.: timeSeries[?]
By duplicate metrics, meaning those metrics that share the same "Type"/"Name" e.g. for illustrative purposes
{
"name": "projects/census-demos",
"time_series": [
{
"metric": {
"type": "custom.googleapis.com/opencensus/oce/dev/latency"
},
"points": [<points...>]
},
{
"metric": {
"type": "custom.googleapis.com/opencensus/oce/dev/latency"
},
"points": [<other_points...>]
}
]
}
which had plagued even the view.Exporter aka OpenCensus StatsExporter from day 1.
With the PR #74 to fix issue #73, there is a deduplication process that prevents putting duplicated Metrics in the same CreateTimeSeriesRequest.
The above issue #73 was exacerbated when Stackdriver Metrics exporter was added to the OpenCensus Agent and metrics were streamed in from various sources concurrently.
