MongoDB traffic pattern watcher

Downloads ↓

MongoWatch provides an easy way to measure mongo database access counts, and timeing, between certain points in a program.

First let's access the database and get a db object

>>> import pymongo
>>> conn = pymongo.Connection('localhost', 27017, tz_aware=False)
>>> db = conn[DBNAME]

Our example collections relate to street life, traffic, and crowds

>>> traffic = db.cars
>>> crowd = db.people

Let's create a vehicle to represent something already in a collection

>>> obj = traffic.insert({'car': 'red'})

Now create a watcher track mongo profile entries created by actions on the selected database

>>> from mongowatch.mongo import watcher
>>> wa = watcher.Watcher(conn,[DBNAME])

Now, let's add one item to traffic:

>>> obj = traffic.insert({'truck':'blue'})

And we'll add two people to the crowd:

>>> obj = crowd.insert({'name':'billy'})
>>> obj = crowd.insert({'name':'jane'})

Which resulted in the following actions being recorded in the watcher.

>>> wa.dump()
total ops:
  inserts: 3
summary:
  database: mongowatch_test
     cars
       inserts: 1
     people
       inserts: 2
details:
  ns mongowatch_test.cars
  op insert
  ts 2011-12-13 08:27:05.496000
  millis ...
<BLANKLINE>
  ns mongowatch_test.people
  op insert
  ts 2011-12-13 08:27:05.498000
  millis ...
<BLANKLINE>
  ns mongowatch_test.people
  op insert
  ts 2011-12-13 08:27:05.498000
  millis ...
<BLANKLINE>

Let's reset the counters

>>> wa.reset()

So now do some more work

>>> crowd.remove({})
>>> traffic.remove({})
>>> obj = crowd.insert({'name':'bonzo'})
This time we stop the watcher explicity
>>> wa.stop()
>>> wa.dump()
total ops:
  inserts: 1
  removes: 2
summary:
  database: mongowatch_test
     cars
       removes: 1
     people
       inserts: 1
       removes: 1
details:
  ns mongowatch_test.people
  op remove
  query {}
  ts 2011-12-13 07:47:51.921000
  millis 0
<BLANKLINE>
  ns mongowatch_test.cars
  op remove
  query {}
  ts 2011-12-13 07:47:51.921000
  millis 0
<BLANKLINE>
  ns mongowatch_test.people
  op insert
  ts 2011-12-13 07:47:51.921000
  millis 0
<BLANKLINE>

>>> conn.disconnect()
