= Geronimo Microprofile Metrics Implementation

== Artifact

== Renaming Prometheus keys

Prometheus exporter can rename metrics keys providing
a properties file in the classpath as resource `META-INF/geronimo-metrics/prometheus-mapping.properties`
or using system properties (with the prefix `geronimo.metrics.prometheus.mapping.`).

The key is the metric key (with the registry type as prefix) and the value the replacement key:

[source]
----
base\:my_metric = app:metric
----

TIP: since it is a properties format the `:` must be escaped.

The specific key `geronimo.metrics.filter.prefix` can take
a list (comma separated values) of metrics prefixes to filter (whitelist)
exported metrics.

== Controlling the metrics endpoints exposure

To activate the metrics endpoints you have to set the system property `geronimo.metrics.jaxrs.activated` to true
or configure either a role or host supported for the endpoint.

The role validation will use the JAX-RS `SecurityContext`.
It relies on the system property `geronimo.metrics.jaxrs.acceptedRoles` and it takes a comma separated list of roles.
At least one must match to let the request pass, if none is set this validation is ignored.
Note that a request without a principal will lead to a HTTP 401 whereas a request with a principal but not the right role will issue a HTTP 403.

The host validation will use the JAX-RS `UriInfo#getRequestUri`.
It relies on the system property `geronimo.metrics.jaxrs.acceptedHosts` and it takes a comma separated list of roles.
At least one must match to let the request pass, if none is set this validation is ignored.
The `` value is an alias for `127.x.y.z` or `1::x` IP or `localhost`.

Configuration example:

[source]
----
-Dgeronimo.metrics.jaxrs.acceptedRoles=ops \
-Dgeronimo.metrics.jaxrs.acceptedHosts=my.remote.host
----

IMPORTANT: the default is `geronimo.metrics.jaxrs.acceptedHosts=` but you can disable the endpoints using `geronimo.metrics.jaxrs.activated=false`.

=== Security

IMPORTANT: default will allow all local calls, this means that if you are behind a proxy which does not propagate the request URI properly
your `/metrics` endpoints will be public.
