@snehalbiche PR #58 hasn't been merged yet. Please can you confirm what branch you're on?

[snehalbiche]

ohh i thought its merged :( let me know which branch to use?

[kz]

@snehalbiche Although I would not recommend it, you should be able to checkout the feature/metrics branch under my account's fork.

I'd recommend waiting a couple days for PR #58 to be merged though!

[snehalbiche]

@kz could you please confirm tentative date for this feature to be available? I am looking for this because -

1. Interactive mode does not work with python2.7 and we are using ubuntu 16.4 LTS
2. I am unable to find logs where I can see powerfulseal in action if I run in Autonomous (policy) mode

if you could point where I can see powerfulseal logging the information that will help till the feature is merged to master

[kz]

@snehalbiche Either later this week or early next week. We have quite a few PRs to review so we'll have to get through the backlog.

As for point 1, please can you let me know what error you're getting when trying to use interactive mode with Python 2.7? Screenshots would be really appreciated.

As for autonomous mode, you can adjust the verbosity of stdout output by using -v, -vv or -vvv flags.

@snehalbiche FYI - Prometheus metric collection has now been merged into master! If you can, please can you also please send me what error you're getting when using interactive mode with Py2.7? Thanks.

[snehalbiche]

@kz Thanks a lot for merging the metric feature, happy to know. Please find screenshots attached.

Thanks! I'll look into this.
