Starting with ipfs daemon --init makes bunch of duplicate metrics collector registration attempted to happen

Version information:

$ ipfs version --all

Repo version: 5
System version: amd64/linux
Golang version: go1.8.1

Type:

Bug

Severity:

Very low

Description:

When starting a daemon with ipfs daemon --init, it seems that the prometheus collector is registering everything twice and printing out bunch of warnings.

[whyrusleeping]

Very strange. Did you build ipfs from source? or is this a pre-built binary?

[victorb]

@whyrusleeping prebuilt, downloaded from dist.ipfs.io

[victorb]

Tried master again, on OSX this time and same issue.

[hitchhiker]

This is still a problem, same on latest win / x64

[whyrusleeping]

@hitchhiker what version of ipfs were you using? I was not able to reproduce this issue on windows 10 x64 using ipfs 0.4.10 binaries

[magik6k]

I can reproduce this, on latest master, Linux.

[hitchhiker]

@whyrusleeping ipfs 0.4.10 (x64) / win 10 / downloaded from https://dist.ipfs.io

Steps to reproduce:

Delete /users/[USERNAME]/.ipfs
Open regular CMD

ipfs daemon --init

-------------------------------------- REPEATS

[whyrusleeping]

Ah, the issue is specifically with the ipfs daemon --init flag.

[alfiedotwtf]

Still an issue for me:

Built with Go go1.10.3 for IPFS v0.4.15

[whyrusleeping]

@alfiedotwtf Thanks for the bump.

@magik6k or @Kubuxu could you take a look?

[machawk1]

I am experiencing this issue as well in https://github.com/oduwsdl/ipwb on macOS but only when using the software (ipwb) in Docker and when the local ipfs data repo is initialized (via ipfs daemon --init &).

go-ipfs v0.4.17

[Stebalien]

The issue here is that we're:

1. Opening the repo.
2. Closing the repo (fully).
3. And then opening the repo.

However, closing the measure datastore (the metrics one) doesn't unregister the metrics reporters.

PR here: ipfs/go-metrics-prometheus#1

There are probably better solutions, in general, but this fixes the immediate issue (and is, in fact, the recommended approach).

Not sure if #5413 is really a duplicate since there's not the problem on init. It only happens when you do a ipfs add --only-hash=true test.txt.

[Stebalien]

The underlying issue is still the same (we're trying to register metrics collectors multiple times instead of creating new ones). However, that does bring up a good point: we shouldn't be caching in this case anyways. See: #5414.
