# `Redix.Telemetry`
[🔗](https://github.com/whatyouhide/redix/blob/v1.5.3/lib/redix/telemetry.ex#L1)

Telemetry integration for event tracing, metrics, and logging.

Redix connections (both `Redix` and `Redix.PubSub`) execute the
following Telemetry events:

  * `[:redix, :connection]` - executed when a Redix connection establishes the
    connection to Redis. There are no measurements associated with this event.
    Metadata are:

    * `:connection` - the PID of the Redix connection that emitted the event.
    * `:connection_name` - the name (passed to the `:name` option when the
    connection is started) of the Redix connection that emitted the event.
    `nil` if the connection was not registered with a name.
    * `:address` - the address the connection successfully connected to.
    * `:reconnection` - a boolean that specifies whether this was a first
      connection to Redis or a reconnection after a disconnection. This can
      be useful for more granular logging.

  * `[:redix, :disconnection]` - executed when the connection is lost
    with the Redis server. There are no measurements associated with
    this event. Metadata are:

    * `:connection` - the PID of the Redix connection that emitted the event.
    * `:connection_name` - the name (passed to the `:name` option when the
    * `:address` - the address the connection was connected to.
      connection is started) of the Redix connection that emitted the event.
      `nil` if the connection was not registered with a name.
    * `:reason` - the disconnection reason as a `Redix.ConnectionError` struct.

  * `[:redix, :failed_connection]` - executed when Redix can't connect to
    the specified Redis server, either when starting up the connection or
    after a disconnection. There are no measurements associated with this event.
    Metadata are:

    * `:connection` - the PID of the Redix connection that emitted the event.
    * `:connection_name` - the name (passed to the `:name` option when the
      connection is started) of the Redix connection that emitted the event.
      `nil` if the connection was not registered with a name.
    * `:address` or `:sentinel_address` - the address the connection was trying
    to connect to (either a Redis server or a Redis Sentinel instance).
    * `:reason` - the disconnection reason as a `Redix.ConnectionError` struct.

`Redix` connections execute the following Telemetry events when commands or
pipelines of any kind are executed.

  * `[:redix, :pipeline, :start]` - executed right before a pipeline (or command,
    which is a pipeline with just one command) is sent to the Redis server.
    Measurements are:

    * `:system_time` (integer) - the system time (in the `:native` time unit)
      at the time the event is emitted. See `System.system_time/0`.

    Metadata are:

    * `:connection` - the PID of the Redix connection used to send the pipeline.
    * `:connection_name` - the name of the Redix connection used to sent the pipeline.
      This is `nil` if the connection was not registered with a name or if the
      pipeline function was called with a PID directly (for example, if you did
      `Process.whereis/1` manually).
    * `:commands` - the commands sent to the server. This is always a list of
      commands, so even if you do `Redix.command(conn, ["PING"])` then the
      list of commands will be `[["PING"]]`.
    * `:extra_metadata` - any term set by users via the `:telemetry_metadata` option
      in `Redix.pipeline/3` and other functions.

  * `[:redix, :pipeline, :stop]` - executed a response to a pipeline returns
    from the Redis server, regardless of whether it's an error response or a
    successful response. Measurements are:

    * `:duration` - the duration (in the `:native` time unit, see `t:System.time_unit/0`)
      of back-and-forth between client and server.

    Metadata are:

    * `:connection` - the PID of the Redix connection used to send the pipeline.
    * `:connection_name` - the name of the Redix connection used to sent the pipeline.
      This is `nil` if the connection was not registered with a name or if the
      pipeline function was called with a PID directly (for example, if you did
      `Process.whereis/1` manually).
    * `:commands` - the commands sent to the server. This is always a list of
      commands, so even if you do `Redix.command(conn, ["PING"])` then the
      list of commands will be `[["PING"]]`.
    * `:extra_metadata` - any term set by users via the `:telemetry_metadata` option
      in `Redix.pipeline/3` and other functions.

    If the response is an error, the following metadata will also be present:

    * `:kind` - the atom `:error`.
    * `:reason` - the error reason (such as a `Redix.ConnectionError` struct).

## Cluster events

`Redix.Cluster` connections execute the following Telemetry events:

  * `[:redix, :cluster, :topology_change]` - executed when the cluster topology
    is successfully refreshed. There are no measurements. Metadata are:

    * `:cluster` - the name of the cluster (the atom passed as `:name`).
    * `:nodes` - the list of primary node addresses (as `"host:port"` strings).

  * `[:redix, :cluster, :failed_topology_refresh]` - executed when the cluster
    manager fails to refresh the topology (no reachable node). There are no
    measurements. Metadata are:

    * `:cluster` - the name of the cluster.
    * `:reason` - the error reason (such as `:no_reachable_node`).

  * `[:redix, :cluster, :node_connection_failed]` - executed when the cluster
    manager fails to establish a connection to a specific node. There are no
    measurements. Metadata are:

    * `:cluster` - the name of the cluster.
    * `:address` - the node address (as a `"host:port"` string).
    * `:reason` - the error reason.

  * `[:redix, :cluster, :redirection]` - executed when a command receives a
    `MOVED` or `ASK` redirection from a cluster node. There are no measurements.
    Metadata are:

    * `:cluster` - the name of the cluster.
    * `:type` - either `:moved` or `:ask`.
    * `:slot` - the hash slot being redirected.
    * `:target_address` - the target node address (as a `"host:port"` string).

More events might be added in the future and that won't be considered a breaking
change, so if you're writing a handler for Redix events be sure to ignore events
that are not known. All future Redix events will start with the `:redix` atom,
like the ones above.

A default handler that logs these events appropriately is provided, see
`attach_default_handler/0`. Otherwise, you can write your own handler to
instrument or log events, see the [Telemetry page](telemetry.html) in the docs.

# `attach_default_handler`

```elixir
@spec attach_default_handler() :: :ok | {:error, :already_exists}
```

Attaches the default Redix-provided Telemetry handler.

This function attaches a default Redix-provided handler that logs
(using Elixir's `Logger`) the following events:

  * `[:redix, :disconnection]` - logged at the `:error` level
  * `[:redix, :failed_connection]` - logged at the `:error` level
  * `[:redix, :connection]` - logged at the `:info` level if it's a
    reconnection, not logged if it's the first connection.
  * `[:redix, :cluster, :failed_topology_refresh]` - logged at the `:error` level
  * `[:redix, :cluster, :node_connection_failed]` - logged at the `:warning` level
  * `[:redix, :cluster, :redirection]` - logged at the `:info` level

See the module documentation for more information. If you want to
attach your own handler, look at the [Telemetry page](telemetry.html)
in the documentation.

## Examples

    :ok = Redix.Telemetry.attach_default_handler()
