good-statsd

Udp broadcasting for Good process monitor

Lead Maintainer: Stephen J. Zabel

Usage

good-statsd is a good-reporter implementation to write hapi server events to remote endpoints. It sends a request with a JSON payload to the supplied endpoint.

Note

good-statsd will never close the udp client.

Good Udp

new GoodStatsd (events, endpoint, [options])

creates a new GoodStatsd object with the following arguments

• events - an object of key value pairs. - key - one of the supported good events indicating the hapi event to subscribe to - value - a single string or an array of strings to filter incoming events. "*" indicates no filtering. null and undefined are assumed to be "*"
• endpoint - full path to remote server to transmit logs.
• [options] - optional arguments object
  • threshold - number of events to hold before transmission. Defaults to 20. Set to 0 to have every event start transmission instantly. It is strongly suggested to have a set threshold to make data transmission more efficient.
  • udpType - a string with the type of udp you want to use. Valid options are udp4 or udp6. Defaults to 'udp4'.

GoodStatsd Methods

good-statsd implements the good-reporter interface as has no additional public methods.

• stop() - GoodStatsd will make a final attempt to transmit anything remaining in it's internal event queue when stop is called.
