Striemann provides a developer friendly interface for sending metrics to the Riemann monitoring system. It's heavily inspired by statsd. It aims to provide a strongly opinionated way for developers to record metrics from their applications.

Installation

Striemann is available on the cheese shop.

pip install striemann

Basic Usage

from striemann import RiemannTransport, Metrics

# Transports are responsible for sending metrics to an endpoint
transport = RiemannTransport("localhost", 5555)

# the Metrics class is the entrypoint for the library
metrics = Metrics(transport)

# Counters keep track of how often a thing happens.
# They send the sum of their metrics when flushed.
metrics.incrementCounter("Burgers sold")
metrics.incrementCounter("Burgers sold")

metrics.incrementCounter("Days without an incident", value=2)
metrics.decrementCounter("Days without an incident", value=2)

# Gauges track a single value. They send the most recent value
# when flushed.
metrics.recordGauge("Awesomeness", value=10)
metrics.recordGauge("Awesomeness", value=100)

# Timers record how long it takes a thing to happen.
# They send the min, max, mean, and count of their recorded values when flushed
with metrics.time("Do a slow thing"):
    time.sleep(5)


# periodically you should flush metrics
metrics.flush()
