It's possible for Prometheus to return multiple metrics, where
each of them has different labels. Before this the client
would fail with error when using the default table formatter,
because of for example:
Row has incorrect number of values, (actual) 8!=9 (expected)
It was also possible to mismatch the label keys and values
for some of the rows.
This patch makes sure the label values are matched to the correct
keys. It also makes sure it uses all labels and it fills
missing values with empty strings for metrics, which don't have
that label defined.
Example table output:
+------------+----------+------------+----------------+-------+
| group | __name__ | job | instance | value |
+------------+----------+------------+----------------+-------+
| | up | sg-core | localhost:3000 | 1 |
| production | up | prometheus | localhost:9090 | 1 |
+------------+----------+------------+----------------+-------+
Example json output:
[
{
"__name__": "up",
"group": "",
"job": "sg-core",
"instance": "localhost:3000",
"value": "1"
},
{
"__name__": "up",
"group": "production",
"job": "prometheus",
"instance": "localhost:9090",
"value": "1"
}
]
