Hi

This looks very similar in approach, just thought I'd share it with you in case it's of interest:

I came across httpsnoop in this thread which might also be of interest if you haven't seen it:

The prometheus implementation didn't exist when I wrote this library. I wonder if they were aware of my implementation and decided against using it. But it seems like this wasn't the case.

I agree with this thread. Having to do this kind of hacking like my lib is terrible, it'd be nice if there were better solutions!

Closing this since there is no more action to be taken.
