CPU and RAM percentage of usage metrics

[paulthemagno]

I need to collect the percentage of usage of CPU and RAM.

I've seen from the README that for Linux these metrics are available with the class ProcessCollector. Indeed I see something just starting the server with start_http_server(8000).

Then, by connecting to localhost:8000, I see an output like this:

# HELP python_gc_objects_collected_total Objects collected during gc
# TYPE python_gc_objects_collected_total counter
python_gc_objects_collected_total{generation="0"} 618.0
python_gc_objects_collected_total{generation="1"} 620.0
python_gc_objects_collected_total{generation="2"} 0.0
# HELP python_gc_objects_uncollectable_total Uncollectable object found during GC
# TYPE python_gc_objects_uncollectable_total counter
python_gc_objects_uncollectable_total{generation="0"} 0.0
python_gc_objects_uncollectable_total{generation="1"} 0.0
python_gc_objects_uncollectable_total{generation="2"} 0.0
# HELP python_gc_collections_total Number of times this generation was collected
# TYPE python_gc_collections_total counter
python_gc_collections_total{generation="0"} 329.0
python_gc_collections_total{generation="1"} 29.0
python_gc_collections_total{generation="2"} 2.0

# HELP process_cpu_seconds_total Total user and system CPU time spent in seconds.

# HELP process_open_fds Number of open file descriptors.

process_open_fds 7.0
# HELP process_max_fds Maximum number of open file descriptors.
# TYPE process_max_fds gauge
process_max_fds 1.048576e+06

How can I customize this output in order to have RAM, CPU (and eventually GPU) percentage of usage?

For example, I see process_cpu_seconds_total 3.6799999999999997 but I'd like to have something like process_cpu_perc_total 50%. The same for the RAM.
