Hello Team!
Whats the best way to get metrics from ktor-client? It looks like the ktor-server has some metrics integrations - but I couldn’t quite get the details for the client.

What metrics are you interested in?

[Vinay Pothnis]

I was mostly looking for metrics around:
• connection pool performance
• metrics related to the actual http calls

thanks for responding @Aleksei Tirman [JB]!

There is no built-in functionality in Ktor to provide such metrics. Feel free to file a feature request.

[Vinay Pothnis]

ack! Thanks @Aleksei Tirman [JB]! Will do.

And yeah, since KTor supports multiple “engines” - it might be interesting/tricky to do things like connection pool related metrics generically.
