       This package contains some simple support structures that assist with other parts of the Net::Prometheus
       distribution.

       Each type is exported as a constructor function.

       "Net::Prometheus::Types" - a collection of support structure types

          use Net::Prometheus::Types qw( Sample );

          my $ob = Sample( variable => [], 123 );

          print "The sample relates to a variable called ", $ob->varname;

Sample
       This structure represents an individual value sample; associating a numerical value with a named variable
       and set of label values.

          $sample = Sample( $varname, $labels, $value )

       varname

          $varname = $sample->varname

       The string variable name. This is the basic name, undecorated by label values.

       labels

          $labels = $sample->labels

       A reference to an even-sized ARRAY containing name/value pairs for the labels.  Label values should be
       raw unescaped strings.

       value

          $sample->value

       The numerical value observed.

   MetricSamples
       This structure represents all the samples made about a given metric, including metadata about the metric
       itself.

          $samples = MetricSamples( $fullname, $type, $help, $samples )

       fullname

       A string giving the fullname of the metric.

       type

       A string, one of 'gauge', 'counter', 'summary' or 'histogram'.

       help

       A string containing the descriptive help message text.

       samples

       A reference to an ARRAY containing individual "Sample" instances.
