PrometheusConnect.check_prometheus_connection() does not work

Describe the bug

I can get metrics but PrometheusConnect.check_prometheus_connection() always returns false.

To Reproduce

>>> from prometheus_api_client.utils import parse_datetime
>>> from prometheus_api_client import PrometheusConnect
>>> from datetime import timedelta
>>>
>>> prom = PrometheusConnect(url="http://localhost:8481/select/1/prometheus", disable_ssl=True)
>>> start_time = parse_datetime("10min")
>>> end_time = parse_datetime("now")
>>> chunk_size = timedelta(seconds=60)
>>>
>>> metric_data = prom.get_metric_range_data(
...     'nginx_ingress_controller_requests{service="as01-prd01-oma"}',
...     start_time=start_time,
...     end_time=end_time,
...     chunk_size=chunk_size,
... )
>>> len(metric_data)
2940
>>> prom.check_prometheus_connection()
False
>>>

Expected behavior

PrometheusConnect.check_prometheus_connection() to return True

OK I see what you mean, yes get_current_metric_value is cleaner. Thanks!

oh my bad, i meant to say that you can use get_current_metric_value instead of get_metric_range_data to make it look cleaner
