+# Example `prom-multi-proc-gunicorn`
+
+Minimal example that shows integration of FastAPI (Gunicorn) with the Prometheus
+client library in multi process mode without Prometheus FastAPI Instrumentator.
+Highlights missing metrics that are not supported in multi process mode.
+
+To run the example, you must have run `poetry install` and `poetry shell` in the
+root of this repository. The following commands are executed relative to this
+directory.
+
+Set environment variable to an unused location:
+
+```shell
+export PROMETHEUS_MULTIPROC_DIR=/tmp/python-testing-pfi/560223ba-887f-429a-9c48-933df56a68ba
+```
+
+Start the app with Gunicorn using two Uvicorn workers:
+
+```shell
+rm -rf "$PROMETHEUS_MULTIPROC_DIR"
+mkdir -p "$PROMETHEUS_MULTIPROC_DIR"
+gunicorn main:app \
+  --config gunicorn.conf.py \
+  --workers 2 \
+  --worker-class uvicorn.workers.UvicornWorker \
+  --bind 0.0.0.0:8080
+```
+
+Interact with app:
+
+```shell
+for i in {1..5}; do curl localhost:8080/ping; done
+curl localhost:8080/metrics
+```
+
+You should see something like this:
+
+```txt
+# TYPE ping_total counter
+ping_total 5.0
+# HELP metrics_total Number of metrics calls.
+# TYPE metrics_total counter
+metrics_total 1.0
+# HELP main_total Counts of main executions.
+# TYPE main_total counter
+main_total 2.0
+```
+
+Check the returned metrics:
+
+- `main_total` is `2`, because Gunicorn is using two workers.
+- There are no `created_by` metrics. These are not supported by the Prometheus
+  client library in multi process mode.
+- No metrics for things like CPU and memory. They come from components like the
+  `ProcessCollector` and `PlatformCollector` which are not supported by the
+  Prometheus client library in multi process mode.
