.. Python StatsD documentation master file, created by
   sphinx-quickstart on Mon Apr  9 15:47:23 2012.
   You can adapt this file completely to your liking, but it should at
   least contain the root `toctree` directive.

Welcome to Python StatsD's documentation!
=========================================

statsd_ is a friendly front-end to Graphite_. This is a Python client
for the statsd daemon.

Quickly, to use:

.. code-block:: pycon

    >>> import statsd
    >>> c = statsd.StatsClient('localhost', 8125)
    >>> c.incr('foo')  # Increment the 'foo' counter.
    >>> c.timing('stats.timed', 320)  # Record a 320ms 'stats.timed'.

You can also add a prefix to all your stats:

.. code-block:: pycon

    >>> import statsd
    >>> c = statsd.StatsClient('localhost', 8125, prefix='foo')
    >>> c.incr('bar')  # Will be 'foo.bar' in statsd/graphite.
