Add lita-datadog to your Lita instance's Gemfile:
gem "lita-datadog"
You will need a DataDog API key, and an application key. Go to https://app.datadoghq.com/account/settings#api for both.
Add the following variable to your Lita config file:
Lita.configure do |config|
...
config.handlers.datadog.api_key = '_api_key_goes_here_'
config.handlers.datadog.application_key = '_app_key_goes_here_'
...
end
timerange
(Integer) - How long in seconds a time range will be for graphs. Default:3600
waittime
(Integer) - How long to wait after getting a URL from Datadog to display it (sometimes the graph isn't ready yet). Default:0
Basic graph of the load on all of your systems:
Lita graph metric:"system.load.1{*}"
Graph of load for one specific system:
Lita graph metric:"system.load.1{host:hostname01}"
Multiple attributes plotted in one graph:
Lita graph metric:"system.load.1{*},system.load.5{*}"
Show graph, with events marked in:
Lita graph metric:"system.load.1{*}" event:"sources:sourcename"
Manipulate time range being graphed:
Lita graph metric:"system.load.1{*}" start:"2 hours ago"
Lita graph metric:"system.load.1{*}" from:"2 hours ago" to:"30 minutes ago"
Graph takes the following arguments:
metric:"<metric>"
event:"<event>"
start:"<time description>"
end:"<time description>"
from:"<time description>"
to:"<time description>"
