Custom sink for Prometheus

Question

Is it possible to define a custom sink for Prometheus? Such a feature is offered by Heapster, and I wonder if one can, for example, write collected time series data by Prometheus to stdout.

The remote write path allows for this, see https://www.robustperception.io/using-the-remote-write-path/ for an example.

Thanks for your prompt response. Is it possible to export the data as a json object, for example? – Eissa N. Apr 25 '17 at 16:00
The remote read API is the only API offered for this, you can write an adapter that converts that output to JSON. – brian-brazil Apr 25 '17 at 20:19
