python_client counter with label

[Marc Pawlowsky]

Can anybody tell me how to send a metric with labels using the python_client

I have:
counter= Counter(metric, metric,
labelnames=['client'], labelvalues=[ data['client'] ])
print counter
print dir(counter)
counter.inc(diff)

<prometheus_client.core._LabelWrapper object at 0xcf8ed0>
['class', 'delattr', 'dict', 'doc', 'format', 'getattribute', 'hash', 'init', 'module', 'new', 'reduce', 'reduce_ex', 'repr', 'setattr', 'sizeof', 'str', 'subclasshook', 'weakref', '_kwargs', '_labelnames', '_lock', '_metrics', '_name', '_samples', '_type', '_wrappedClass', 'collect', 'describe', 'labels', 'remove']

counter.inc(diff)

| AttributeError: '_LabelWrapper' object has no attribute 'inc'

I was expecting counter to have the inc method.

See the examples at https://github.com/prometheus/client_python/#labels

You need to specify labels, otherwise we don't know what to increment.

Go it, it is further down on the page, and just not quite what I expected. Feeling silly about how long I spent on it.

The constructor is used to define the labels that are valid, then when you access the counter you specify the labels values

counter= Counter(metric, metric, ['client'])

counter.labels(client=data['client']).inc(diff)

Thanks
