datadog-statsd-metrics-collector

A wrapper for for node-dogstatsd that buffers and rolls up metrics into efficient calls to a Datadog StatsD server.

Install

npm install datadog-statsd-metrics-collector node-dogstatsd

Usage

const StatsD = require('node-dogstatsd').StatsD
const Collector = require('datadog-statsd-metrics-collector');

const dd = new Collector(new StatsD('example.org', 8125));
dd.increment('test.metric', 1, ['tag:first']);

Buffered stats

• increment
• incrementBy
• decrement
• decrementBy

TODO

• histagram
