Cloudstats

Cloudstats pulls project and account statistics from the CloudStack API and feeds them into a Influxdb database. Using Grafana you will be able to craft beautiful dashboards.

Installation

Install the gem:

$ gem install cloudstats

Usage

Make sure you have a working cloudstack_client configuration file in your home directory. Usually this is found under ~/.cloudstack.yml

Install gem dependencies:

$ bundle install

See the help for more options:

$ bin/cloudstats help

Grafana dashboard

You'll find a example Grafana dashboard export in the examples folder.

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.

Send to influxDB via a proxy

We are using influxcloud (hosted influxdb) and no vm's are directly connected to the internet. Our telegraf agent and python scripts can all send data via a proxy server to the destination influxdb server. Is it possible to add this functionality?

Great project btw!
