The initial problem was that the OpenMetrics output format was not quite right. It lacked a trailing
# EOF
, it sometimes included a stray blank line, and we did not correctly deal withAccept
andContent-Type
for theapplication/openmetrics-text
media type. (The issue was reported by a user who was having trouble with a Prometheus server that was set up to record exemplars complaining when it scraped a Helidon service's/metrics
endpoint.)Along the way I discovered that exemplars for
SimpleTimer
were incorrect so that fix is part of this PR also.Signed-off-by: [email protected] [email protected]
