goSysStatsd

Simple utility to import system metrics in statsd

goSysStatsd is a utility to add system metrics like memory usage and disk usage to your statsd system.

Being written in golang goSysStatsd is a zero dependency tool that can just be deployed by copying one file on the destination system.

Installation

1. Copy the executable on your system

wget http://downloads.gofog.org/gosystatsd-0.0.3-x86_64

2. Use it

Usage

every time the command is executed it will update the specified statsd server with:

• disk usage
• memory usage
• cpu load average (multiplied by 100 to make it an integer value)

# with default options statsd listening on localhost port 8125
gosystatsd

# custom host and port
gosystatsd -h myhost -p 9999

you should start seeing data in statsd similar to this

   { 'system.memory.total': 7710,
     'system.memory.used': 3253,
     'system.memory.free': 4457,
