# Circonus metrics tracking for Go applications
2016-12-16 18:31:07 +00:00
This library supports named counters, gauges and histograms.
It also provides convenience wrappers for registering latency
instrumented functions with Go's builtin http server.
2016-12-16 18:31:07 +00:00
Initializing only requires setting an ApiToken.
## Example
2016-12-16 18:31:07 +00:00
**rough and simple**
```go
package main
import (
"log"
"math/rand"
"os"
"time"
cgm "github.com/circonus-labs/circonus-gometrics"
)
func main() {
2016-11-02 19:34:30 +00:00
logger := log.New(os.Stdout, "", log.LstdFlags)
logger.Println("Configuring cgm")
cmc := &cgm.Config{}
2016-12-14 00:12:26 +00:00
2016-12-16 18:31:07 +00:00
// Interval at which metrics are submitted to Circonus, default: 10 seconds
// cmc.Interval = "10s" // 10 seconds
2016-11-02 19:34:30 +00:00
2016-12-16 18:31:07 +00:00
// Enable debug messages, default: false
cmc.Debug = true
2016-11-02 19:34:30 +00:00
2016-12-16 18:31:07 +00:00
// Send debug messages to specific log.Logger instance
// default: if debug stderr, else, discard
cmc.Log = logger
2016-12-14 00:12:26 +00:00
2016-12-16 18:31:07 +00:00

// Change to "false" to retain (and continue submitting) the last value.
// cmc.ResetGauges = "true"
2016-12-14 00:12:26 +00:00
2016-12-16 18:31:07 +00:00
// Reset histogram metrics after each submission, default: "true"
// Change to "false" to retain (and continue submitting) the last value.
// cmc.ResetHistograms = "true"
2016-12-14 00:12:26 +00:00
2016-12-16 18:31:07 +00:00

// Change to "false" to retain (and continue submitting) the last value.
// cmc.ResetText = "true"
