Redis StatsD Reporter

A little node app that will poll one or more redis instances and push their statistics out to statsd

npm i -g redis-statsd-reporter
redis-statsd /path/to/config/files/

###Config Files

###redis.json

[
  {
    "host": "my.redis.host",
    "port": 6379,                  // default: 6379
    "password": "foobar",          // optional,
    "cluster": false,              // optional (default false)
    "nodeNames": "prefix",         // optional "tag" or "prefix" (default "prefix"),
    "prefix": "foo.bar.redis.yay", // optional,
    "keyCounters": {
      "zset": [ "sampleKey" ]
    },
    "tags": {                      // optional, tags are supported by the influxdb backend
      "foo": "bar"
    }
  },
  {
     //...
  }
]

###statsd.json

{
  "host": "localhost",
  "port": 8125,       // default: 8125
  "interval": 10      // how often to poll the redis servers, default: 10
}

###Metrics

####Server wide metrics

• blocked_clients
• connected_clients
• instantaneous_ops_per_sec
• latest_fork_usec
• migrate_cached_sockets
• uptime_in_seconds
• used_memory
• used_memory_lua
• used_memory_peak
• used_memory_rss
• maxmemory
• evicted_keys

Key specific metrics

• zcount for zset

####Per-DB metrics

• keys
• expires
• avg_ttl

####Computed fields

• percent_used (calculated from used_memory and maxmemory, where available)

###Redis Cluster support This module supports redis clustering out-of-the-box. The two relevant configuration options are:

cluster - values: true or false

Tells the redis driver to treat the given server as part of a cluster.

When clustering is turned on, the INFO command is sent to all members and the stats are logged per-cluster member.

nodeNames - values: "tag" or "prefix"

Defines whether you want the node-name (cluster_myself_name) to be part of the measurement name ('prefix') or appended as a tag (tag). Tags are only supported by the statsd influxdb backend. If you are unsure, leave this parameter unset.

Note: The nodeNames parameter is ignored when cluster = false
