Minimal gem to send metrics to a local telegraf agent.
This gem only uses the line protocol from the influxdb gem and does not depend on a specific version. This may break in the future but does not restrict you in using a your preferred influxdb version.
gem 'telegraf'And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install telegraf
Configure telegraf socket listener e.g.:
[[inputs.socket_listener]]
service_address = "udp://localhost:8094"
telegraf = Telegraf::Agent.new 'udp://localhost:8094'
telegraf = Telegraf::Agent.new # default: 'udp://localhost:8094'
telegraf.write('demo',
tags: {tag_a: 'A', tag_b: 'B'},
values: {value_a: 1, value_b: 1.5})
telegraf.write([{
series: 'demo',
tags: {tag_a: 'A', tag_b: 'B'},
values: {value_a: 1, value_b: 1.5}
}])There is not buffer or batch handling, nor connection pooling or keep alive. Each #write creates a new connection (unless it's a datagram connection).
There is no exception handling.
