Hapi Datadog Reporter

hapi-datadog is a hapi plugin which reports metrics and events to DataDog.

:warning: This plugin is built for Hapi 8 and doesn't currently support any older versions.

:construction: This plugin is still in it's initial stages of development and shouldn't be used in production.

Installation

Firstly install the node module:

npm install --save hapi-datadog

Then add the plugin to your server:

var Hapi = require('hapi');
var HapiDatadog = require('hapi-datadog');
var StatsD = require('node-dogstatsd').StatsD;

var server = new Hapi.Server();

server.register({
  plugin: HapiDatadog,
  options: {
    stats: new StatsD(),
  }
}, function (err) {
  if (err) {
    console.error(err);
    return;
  }
});

:grey_exclamation: Note that you will need to have the DataDog agent installed on your server so that stats can be reported back.
