Graphizer

Graphizer is a go library that talks to graphite.

Usage

g := graphizer.newGraphite(graphizer.UDP, "localhost:5555")
g.Send(graphite.Metric{"path.to.metric", 123, time.Now().Unix()})

Metrics have the following structure:

type Metric struct {
  Path      string
  Value     interface{}
  Timestamp int64
}

There are three methods to push data onto graphite, Write israw access to the socket, whereas Send pushes data onto a channel, and then delivers the metrics async. SendStruct will serialize a struct into an array of graphite metrics and send them out over the wire. see:

• func (g *Graphite) Write(m Metric) error
• func (g *Graphite) Send(m Metric)
