Record performance metrics about your application
Project description
Adjust counter and timer metrics in StatsD using the same API.
The mix-in is configured through the tornado.web.Application settings property using a key defined by the specific mix-in.

Statsd Mixin
The following snippet configures the StatsD mix-in from common environment variables. This simple handler will emit a timer metric that identifies each call to the get method as well as a separate metric for the database query.
import os
from sprockets.mixins import mediatype
from sprockets.mixins.metrics import statsd
from tornado import web
import queries
def make_application():
application = web.Application([
web.url(r'/', MyHandler),
], **settings)
statsd.install({'namespace': 'my-application',
'host': os.environ.get('STATSD_HOST', '127.0.0.1'),
'port': os.environ.get('STATSD_PORT', '8125')})
return application
class MyHandler(statsd.StatsdMixin,
mediatype.ContentMixin,
web.RequestHandler):
def initialize(self):
super(MyHandler, self).initialize()
self.db = queries.TornadoSession(os.environ['MY_PGSQL_DSN'])
async def get(self, obj_id):
with self.execution_timer('dbquery', 'get'):
result = await self.db.query('SELECT * FROM foo WHERE id=%s',
obj_id)
self.send_response(result)
Settings
- namespace:
The namespace for the measurements
- host:
The Statsd host
- port:
The Statsd port
- prepend_metric_type:
Optional flag to prepend bucket path with the StatsD metric type
