Statistics collector
====================
Module ``stats`` gathers various counters from the query resolution
and server internals, and offers them as a key-value storage.
These metrics can be either exported to :ref:`mod-graphite`,
exposed as :ref:`mod-http-prometheus`, or processed using user-provided script
as described in chapter :ref:`async-events`.
.. note:: Please remember that each Knot Resolver instance keeps its own
statistics, and instances can be started and stopped dynamically. This might
affect your data postprocessing procedures if you are using
:ref:`systemd-multiple-instances`.
.. _mod-stats-list:
Built-in statistics

| answer.nodata | NOERROR, but empty answers |
+-----------------+----------------------------------+
| answer.nxdomain | NXDOMAIN answers |
+-----------------+----------------------------------+

[iterator.udp] => 105104
[iterator.tcp] => 490
-- Fetch most common queries
> stats.frequent()
[1] => {
[type] => 2
[count] => 4
[name] => cz.
}
-- Fetch most common queries (sorted by frequency)
> table.sort(stats.frequent(), function (a, b) return a.count > b.count end)
-- Show recently contacted authoritative servers
> stats.upstreams()
[2a01:618:404::1] => {
[1] => 26 -- RTT
}
[128.241.220.33] => {
[1] => 31 - RTT
}
-- Set custom metrics from modules

> stats['filter.match']

Module reference
----------------
.. function:: stats.get(key)
:param string key: i.e. ``"answer.total"``
:return: ``number``
Return nominal value of given metric.
.. function:: stats.set('key val')
Set nominal value of given metric.
Example:
.. code-block:: lua
stats.set('answer.total 5')
-- or syntactic sugar
stats['answer.total'] = 5
.. function:: stats.list([prefix])
:param string prefix: optional metric prefix, i.e. ``"answer"`` shows only metrics beginning with "answer"
Outputs collected metrics as a JSON dictionary.
.. function:: stats.upstreams()
Outputs a list of recent upstreams and their RTT. It is sorted by time and stored in a ring buffer of
a fixed size. This means it's not aggregated and readable by multiple consumers, but also that
you may lose entries if you don't read quickly enough. The default ring size is 512 entries, and may be overridden on compile time by ``-DUPSTREAMS_COUNT=X``.
.. function:: stats.frequent()
Outputs list of most frequent iterative queries as a JSON array. The queries are sampled probabilistically,
and include subrequests. The list maximum size is 5000 entries, make diffs if you want to track it over time.
.. function:: stats.clear_frequent()
Clear the list of most frequent iterative queries.
