A "local" UDP server for gathering statistical information. Unlike other statsd style servers, this goal for this statsd implementation is to create an all-in-one stats solution. There is no need for a "backend" server and statistics are viewed using graphs displayed by the included web server.
Statistical data should be submitted to the server using standard statsd types.
To report a 1 in the count stat with a sampling rate of .1:
count:1|c|@.1
Sampling rate is optional and assumed to be 1.
Timing is reported in a similar way (stat is foo, time is 320, sample rate of .1):
foo:320|ms|@0.1
Gauges store current value of an item (stat here is bar, value is 12)
bar:12|g
You can also increment gauges by putting a + or - before the gauge value.
Finally, sets count unique occurrences of a statistic (stat in the example is hello, value is 42):
hello:42|s
Test using netcat:
echo -n "howdy:1|c" | nc -4u -w0 localhost 9045 Run statsd --help to see all available options.
Build using go build _app/statsd/statsd.go
