Client for StatsD (Golang)

Usage

Client may be in buffered and unbuffered mode.

In buffered mode adding metric only adds it to buffer. Then client.Flush() builds all metrics to packed and sends them to StatsD server by one request.

In unbuffered mode each metric sends to StatsD immediately.

Creating unbuffered client:

client := NewClient("127.0.0.1", 9876)  # create client
client.Open()                           # open connection to StatsD
client.Count('a.b.c', 42, 0.7)          # set count metric and send it to StatsD

Creating buffered client:

client := NewBufferedClient("127.0.0.1", 9876) # create client
client.Open()                                  # open connection to StatsD
client.Count('a.b.c', 42, 0.7)                 # set count metric and add it to buffer
client.Timing('a.b.d', 43)                     # set timing metric and add it to buffer
client.Flush()                                 # send all metrics as one packet to StatsD
