**Timeless Observability for Phoenix
Timeless is a suite of databases and dashboards that can be embedded in your Elixir Phoenix app to provide observability. A single igniter command line and it installs the necessary packages and wires up metrics, logs, and trace ingestion for you.
Installation guide:
Add igniter and timeless_phoenix to your deps. Run mix deps.get then . . .
mix igniter.install timeless_phoenix
You automatically get:
- persistent metrics history
- searchable logs
- OpenTelemetry traces
- dashboard mounted at /dashboard with dashboards for each.
The databases and dashboards are all maintained separately if you want to pick and choose which to deploy in your app.
Compression rates are generally 9-14:1 depending on the service with real data. There is an in memory option for those of you on SD cards(nerves, etc). Data is automatically rolled off based on your retention policy.
Advanced features:
Built in promql http endpoints, SVG graphing, predictive analysis, anomaly detection, alerting are all built in. Alerts are via http endpoint such as ntfy.sh.
Hit me up if you have questions. Please use github for any feature requests. A server version is in the works as well for users with full web farms they would like to send metrics/logs/traces to.
There’s also chat on the website if you want to chat: https://timelessmetrics.com
