A Rust client for interacting with Dogstatsd
Dogstatsd is a custom StatsD implementation by DataDog for sending metrics and events to their system. Through this client you can report any type of metric you want, tag it, and enjoy your custom metrics.
Build an options struct and create a client:
use dogstatsd::{Client, Options};
// Binds to a udp socket on an available ephemeral port on 127.0.0.1 for
// transmitting, and sends to 127.0.0.1:8125, the default dogstatsd address.
let default_options = Options::default();
let default_client = Client::new(default_options);
// Binds to 127.0.0.1:9000 for transmitting and sends to 10.1.2.3:8125, with a
// namespace of "analytics".
let custom_options = Options::new("127.0.0.1:9000", "10.1.2.3:8125", "analytics");
let custom_client = Client::new(custom_options);
Start sending metrics:
use dogstatsd::{Client, Options, ServiceStatus, ServiceCheckOptions};
let client = Client::new(Options::default());
// Increment a counter
client.incr("my_counter", vec![]).unwrap();
// Decrement a counter
client.decr("my_counter", vec![]).unwrap();
// Time a block of code (reports in ms)
client.time("my_time", vec![], || {
// Some time consuming code
}).unwrap();
// Report your own timing in ms
client.timing("my_timing", 500, vec![]).unwrap();
// Report an arbitrary value (a gauge)
client.gauge("my_gauge", "12345", vec![]).unwrap();
// Report a sample of a histogram
client.histogram("my_histogram", "67890", vec![]).unwrap();
// Report a member of a set
client.set("my_set", "13579", vec![]).unwrap();
// Report a service check
let service_check_options = ServiceCheckOptions {
hostname: Some("my-host.localhost"),
..Default::default()
};
client.service_check("redis.can_connect", ServiceStatus::OK, vec![], service_check_options).unwrap();
// Send a custom event
client.event("My Custom Event Title", "My Custom Event Body", vec![]).unwrap();
// Add tags to any metric by passing a Vec<String> of tags to apply
client.gauge("my_gauge", "12345", vec!["tag:1".into(), "tag:2".into()]).unwrap();
Support is provided for running benchmarks of all client commands. Until the
Bencher
type is stable Rust, the benchmarks are isolated behind the
unstable
feature flag. To run the benchmarks using rustup
:
rustup run nightly cargo bench --features=unstable
