FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Informations about the package metrics

KislayPHP Metrics

PHP Version Build Status PIE

Application metrics for PHP microservices. Counter, gauge, histogram, and timer types with zero instrumentation overhead. Prometheus-compatible export.

Part of the KislayPHP ecosystem.


โœจ What It Does

kislayphp/metrics provides C++-backed metrics primitives for PHP applications. All metric operations use atomic operations โ€” measuring your code doesn't slow it down.


๐Ÿ“ฆ Installation

Enable in php.ini:


๐Ÿš€ Quick Start


๐Ÿ“– Public API

Note: Counter::get()/Gauge::get() genuinely return float (fixed 2026-08-12 โ€” previously returned int despite this signature). Collector::timer() (also added 2026-08-12) constructs and returns a real Timer bound to a lazily-created/looked-up Histogram of the same name, same lookup-or-create semantics as counter()/gauge()/histogram().

Known gap: the labels parameter shown above on counter()/gauge()/histogram()/timer() is accepted syntactically but not implemented โ€” labels are not attached to the exported series. Don't rely on it for cardinality/dimensioning yet.

start() returns void, not a chainable handle โ€” call start()/stop() on the same Timer instance (there is no separate TimerHandle class). stop() returns the elapsed milliseconds AND records that value into the underlying Histogram automatically.
