#### Trace API calls and Monitor API performance, health and usage statistics in Node.js Microservices
### Express, Fastify, Koa, Hapi, Restify
**swagger-stats** traces REST API requests and responses in Node.js Microservices, and collects statistics per API Operation.
**swagger-stats** detects API operations based on express routes. You may also provide [Swagger (Open API) specification](https://swagger.io/specification/),
and swagger-stats will match API requests with API Operations defined in swagger specification.
**swagger-stats** exposes statistics and metrics per API Operation, such as `GET /myapi/:parameter`, or `GET /pet/{petId}`
### Built-In API Telemetry
> **swagger-stats** provides built-in Telemetry UX, so you may enable **swagger-stats** in your app, and start monitoring immediately, with no infrastructure requirements.
> Navigate to `http://<your app host:port>/swagger-stats/`

### API Analytics with [Elasticsearch](https://www.elastic.co/) and [Kibana](https://www.elastic.co/products/kibana)
> **swagger-stats** stores details about each request/response in [Elasticsearch](https://www.elastic.co/), so you may use [Kibana](https://www.elastic.co/products/kibana)
> to perform detailed analysis of API usage over time, build visualizations and dashboards

See `dashboards/elastic6` for swagger-stats Kibana visualizations and dashboards
### Monitoring and Alerting with [Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/) and [Grafana](https://grafana.com/)
> **swagger-stats** exposes metrics in [Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/) format, so you may use [Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/) and [Grafana](https://grafana.com/) to setup API monitoring and alerting

See `dashboards/prometheus` for swagger-stats Grafana dashboards
With statistics and metrics exposed by **swagger-stats** you may spot problematic API endpoints, see where most of errors happens,
catch long-running requests, analyze details of last errors, observe trends, setup alerting.
**swagger-stats** provides:
* Metrics in [Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/) format, so you may use [Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/) and [Grafana](https://grafana.com/) to setup API monitoring and alerting
* Storing details about each API Request/Response in [Elasticsearch](https://www.elastic.co/), so you may use [Kibana](https://www.elastic.co/products/kibana) to perform analysis of API usage over time, build visualizations and dashboards
* Built-in API Telemetry UI, so you may enable swagger-stats in your app, and start monitoring right away, with no additional tools required
* Exposing collected statistics via API, including:
* Counts of requests and responses(total and by response class), processing time (total/avg/max),
content length(total/avg/max) for requests and responses, rates for requests and errors.
This is baseline set of stats.
* Statistics by Request Method: baseline stats collected for each request method
* Timeline: baseline stats collected for each 1 minute interval during last 60 minutes. Timeline helps you to analyze trends.
* Errors: count of responses per each error code, top "not found" resources, top "server error" resources
* Last errors: request and response details for the last 100 errors (last 100 error responses)
* Longest requests: request and response details for top 100 requests that took longest time to process (time to send response)
* Tracing: Request and Response details - method, URLs, parameters, request and response headers, addresses, start/stop times and processing duration, matched API Operation info
* API Statistics: baseline stats and parameter stats per each API Operation. API operation detected based on express routes, and based on [Swagger (Open API) specification](https://swagger.io/specification/)
* CPU and Memory Usage of Node process
## How to Use
### Install
```
npm install swagger-stats --save
```
If you haven't added prom-client already, you should do this now. It's a [peer dependency](https://nodejs.org/en/blog/npm/peer-dependencies) of swagger-stats as of version [0.95.19](https://github.com/slanatech/swagger-stats/releases/tag/v0.95.19).
```
npm install prom-client@12 --save
```
### Enable swagger-stats middleware in your app
#### Express
```javascript
const swStats = require('swagger-stats');
const apiSpec = require('swagger.json');
app.use(swStats.getMiddleware({swaggerSpec:apiSpec}));
```
#### Fastify
```javascript
const swStats = require('swagger-stats');
const apiSpec = require('swagger.json');
const fastify = require('fastify')({
logger: true
});
// Enable swagger-stats
fastify.register(require('fastify-express')).then(()=>{
fastify.register(swStats.getFastifyPlugin, {swaggerSpec:apiSpec});
});
```
#### Koa
[`express-to-koa`](https://github.com/kaelzhang/express-to-koa) can be used which is just a simple `Promise` wrapper.
```javascript
const swStats = require('swagger-stats');
const apiSpec = require('swagger.json');
const e2k = require('express-to-koa');
app.use(e2k(swStats.getMiddleware({ swaggerSpec:apiSpec })));
```
#### Hapi
```javascript
const swStats = require('swagger-stats');
const swaggerSpec = require('./petstore.json');
const init = async () => {
server = Hapi.server({
port: 3040,
host: 'localhost'
});
await server.register({
plugin: swStats.getHapiPlugin,
options: {
swaggerSpec:swaggerSpec
}
});
await server.start();
console.log('Server running on %s', server.info.uri);
};
````
#### Restify
```javascript
const restify = require('restify');
const swStats = require('swagger-stats');
const apiSpec = require('swagger.json');
const server = restify.createServer();
server.pre(swStats.getMiddleware({
swaggerSpec:apiSpec,
}));
```
See `/examples` for sample apps

# HELP api_all_request_total The total number of all API requests received
# TYPE api_all_request_total counter
api_all_request_total 88715

#### Default Metrics
To collect [prom-client default metrics](https://github.com/siimon/prom-client#default-metrics):
```javascript
const swaggerStats = require('swagger-stats');
const promClient = require('prom-client');
promClient.collectDefaultMetrics();
```
Some Node.js specific metrics are included, such as event loop lag:
```
# HELP nodejs_eventloop_lag_seconds Lag of event loop in seconds.
# TYPE nodejs_eventloop_lag_seconds gauge
nodejs_eventloop_lag_seconds 0.000193641 1597303877464
