Prometheus::Tiny::Shared - A tiny Prometheus client with a shared database behind it
use Prometheus::Tiny::Shared;
my $prom = Prometheus::Tiny::Shared->new;
"Prometheus::Tiny::Shared" is a wrapper around Prometheus::Tiny that instead of storing metrics data in a hashtable, stores them in a shared datastore (provided by Hash::SharedMem, though this may change in the future). This lets you keep a single set of metrics in a multithreaded app.
"Prometheus::Tiny::Shared" should be a drop-in replacement for "Prometheus::Tiny". Any differences in behaviour is a bug, and should be reported.
my $prom = Prometheus::Tiny::Shared->new(filename => ...);
"filename", if provided, will name an on-disk location to store the backing store. If not supplied, a temporary location will be created and destroyed when your program ends, so suitable for testing purposes. For best performance, this should be stored on some kind of memory-backed filesystem (eg Linux "tmpfs"). The store is not intended to be a persistant, durable store (Prometheus will handle metrics resetting to zero correctly), so you don't need to worry about backing it up or any other maintenance.
"init_file", if set to true, will overwrite any existing data file with the given name. If you do this while you already have existing "Prometheus::Tiny::Shared" objects using the old file, strange things will probably happen. Don't do that.
The "cache_args" argument will cause the constructor to croak. Code using this arg in previous versions of Prometheus::Tiny::Shared no longer work, and needs to be updated to use the "filename" argument instead.
