It's currently possible to have a
Counter
with aFloat
value, but this fails to export because theNumberDataPoint
is always assumed to be anInteger
for the purposes of ProtoBuf encoding. The.proto
for aNumberDataPoint
allows for a float value in theas_double
key, so there should be no reason that we should not be able to supportFloat
Counter
s.This commit adds support for
Float
values inNumberDataPoint
, which in turn adds support forFloat
Counter
s. I also updated the documentation in the structs for bothNumberDataPoint.value
andHistogramDataPoint.sum
to match the expected type based on the.proto
.Adds a test to confirm that the metrics_exporter handles both
Integer
andFloat
values for aNumberDataPoint
.Noting the error message output without this change:
