npm install @google-cloud/monitoring

Using the client library

// Imports the Google Cloud client libraryconst monitoring = require('@google-cloud/monitoring');async function quickstart() {  // Creates a client  const client = new monitoring.MetricServiceClient();  // TODO(developer): Uncomment and set the following variables  // const projectId = "PROJECT_ID"  // Prepares an individual data point  const dataPoint = {    interval: {      endTime: {        seconds: Date.now() / 1000,      },    },    value: {      // The amount of sales      doubleValue: 123.45,    },  };  // Prepares the time series request  const request = {    name: client.projectPath(projectId),    timeSeries: [      {        // Ties the data point to a custom metric        metric: {          type: 'custom.googleapis.com/stores/daily_sales',          labels: {            store_id: 'Pittsburgh',          },        },        resource: {          type: 'global',          labels: {            project_id: projectId,          },        },        points: [dataPoint],      },    ],  };  // Writes time series data  const [result] = await client.createTimeSeries(request);  console.log('Done writing time series data.', result);}quickstart();

Supported Node.js Versions

Our client libraries follow theNode.js release schedule.Libraries are compatible with all currentactive andmaintenance versions ofNode.js.If you are using an end-of-life version of Node.js, we recommend that you updateas soon as possible to an actively supported LTS version.

Google's client libraries support legacy versions of Node.js runtimes on abest-efforts basis with the following warnings:

  • Legacy versions are not tested in continuous integration.
  • Some security patches and features cannot be backported.
  • Dependencies cannot be kept up-to-date.

Client libraries targeting some end-of-life versions of Node.js are available, andcan be installed through npmdist-tags.The dist-tags follow the naming conventionlegacy-(version).For example,npm install @google-cloud/monitoring@legacy-8 installs client librariesfor versions compatible with Node.js 8.

Versioning

This library followsSemantic Versioning.

This library is considered to bestable. The code surface will not change in backwards-incompatible waysunless absolutely necessary (e.g. because of critical security issues) or withan extensive deprecation period. Issues and requests againststable librariesare addressed with the highest priority.
