cloudwatchHandler failed to compare metrics

[choopooly]

I'm trying the cloudwatchHandler but for some reason I can't make it work.
The connection with cloudwatch works fine, but during the cloudwatch.process function , metric.getMetricPath() return nothing so the comparison fails without any log message.

diamond[13010] DEBUG diamond cloudwatch.process:186 Comparing Collector: [loadavg] with (loadavg) and Metric: [01] with ()

Here is my config

[[cloudwatchHandler]]
region = us-west-2

[[[LoadAvg01]]]
collector = loadavg
metric = 01
namespace = os
name = Avg01
unit = None

[collectors]

[[default]]
enabled = False
# path_suffix = os

[[LoadAverageCollector]]
enabled = True

Also, I probably misinterpreted the config with the namespace, but if I add path_suffix = os to my collectors, the comparison log:

Comparing Collector: [loadavg] with (os) and Metric: [01] with ()

@choopooly Were you able to figure out what was going on?

@josegonzalez unfortunately no.
