StatsD erlang client.

Statsderl

Installation

$ make

Usage

application:start(statsderl).

Increment

statsderl:increment("test.increment", 1, 0.5).

Decrement

statsderl:decrement("test.decrement", 1, 0.5).

Timing

statsderl:timing("test.timing", 5, 0.5).

Timing now

Timestamp = erlang:now(),
statsderl:timing_now("test.timing", Timestamp, 0.5).

Gauge

statsderl:gauge("test.gauge", 333, 1.0).

Base Key

For multi-node setups, it might be useful to be able to define a basic key based on the current node name, for example. Statsderl supports doing so by setting the app variable base_key to some iolist:

application:set_env(statsderl, base_key, "my_node_name")

No need to split the keys -- the . as a separator is added automatically.
