Module oc_stat_measure
Measure represents a type of metric to be tracked and recorded.
Description
For example, latency, request Mb/s, and response Mb/s are measures to collect from a server.
Measure is a generic interface for recording values in aggregations via subscribed views. When recording a value, we have to obtain the list of all subscribed views and call respective aggregations. We use code generation to optimize this. When a view subscribed or unsubscribed we regenerate unrolled loop in a special module (one for each measure). Module names generated from measurement names (1-to-1). If we know a measure name at the compile time, we can eliminate the module name lookup and inject remote call directly, replacing oc_stat:record with <GENERATED_MEASURE_MODULE>:record. For that {parse_transform, oc_stat_measure} option must be used.

Function Details
exists/1
exists(Measure::name() | measure()) -> measure() | false
Returns a measure with the Name or false..
new/3
new(Name::name(), Description::description(), Unit::unit()) -> oc_stat_view:measure()
Creates and registers a measure. If a measure with the same name already exists, old measure returned.
unit/1
unit(Measure::measure()) -> unit()
