import StatsD from "../14-reference/_statsd.mdx"
StatsD is a simple daemon for aggregating application metrics, which has evolved rapidly in recent years into a unified protocol for collecting application performance metrics.
You can write StatsD data to TDengine by simply modifying the configuration file of StatsD with the domain name (or IP address) of the server running taosAdapter and the corresponding port. It can take full advantage of TDengine's efficient storage query performance and clustering capabilities for time-series data.
Prerequisites
To write StatsD data to TDengine requires the following preparations.
- The TDengine cluster is deployed and functioning properly
- taosAdapter is installed and running properly. Please refer to the taosAdapter manual for details.
- StatsD has been installed. To install StatsD, please refer to official documentation
Configuration steps
Verification method
Start StatsD:
$ node stats.js config.js &
[1] 8546
$ 20 Apr 09:54:41 - [8546] reading config file: config.js
20 Apr 09:54:41 - server is up INFO
Using the utility software nc to write data for test:
$ echo "foo:1|c" | nc -u -w0 127.0.0.1 8125
Use the TDengine CLI to verify that StatsD data is written to TDengine and can read out correctly.
