Limiting metrics logs to custom metric

[Manish G]

Hi,

I have added a Meter in my code and pushing it to app logs using slf4j reporter.

I observe that apart from my custometrics, lots of other metrics like gauge, histogram etc is also published. It makes it difficult to filter out data for generating splunk graphs.

Is there a way to limit published metrics to just the custom one?

With regards

There's no built-in functionality for this. You could customize the
reporter though.

Not really; but essentially you have to override SLF4JReporter#notifyOfAddedMetric and filter the metrics you're interested in. Then build the flink-metrics-slf4j module, and replace the corresponding jar in your distribution.
