Simple wrapper for sending Zabbix metrics to the server

Zabbix Metrics Collector

This library provides easy-to-use wrapper for sending metrics to the Zabbix server.

Usage:

package main

import (
	"github.com/blacked/go-zabbix"
	"github.com/retailcrm/zabbix-metrics-collector"
)

func main() {
    go metrics("app", "zabbix_server_docker", 10051)
    // some other logic here
}

func metrics(appHostZabbix, host string, port, intervalSeconds int) {
	sender := zabbix.NewSender(host, port)
	collector := metrics.NewMemoryCollector(intervalSeconds)
	proc := metrics.NewZabbix([]metrics.Collector{collector}, sender, appHostZabbix, intervalSeconds, metrics.DefaultLogger)
	proc.Run()
}

To collect other metrics you must implement metrics.Collector interface and collect relevant data there. The collector must be goroutine-safe.

You also can implement your own transport by using metrics.Transport interface. It may be useful in some cases. The included Zabbix transport will work just fine for the majority of use-cases.
