’ve been playing around with Etsy/statsD recently trying to use to debug Node.js apps.
Here’s a detailed instructions how to install it on OS X Yosemite 10.10.4 :
#Requirements:
- Python 2.6 or greater.
- py2cairo.
- Django 1.4 or greater.
- django-tagging 0.3.1 or greater.
- Twisted 8.0 or greater (10.0+ recommended).
#Installation:
- Let’s start by installing py2cairo/glib:
brew install cairo brew install py2cairo
- Install django and django-tagging:
sudo pip install Django==1.8.3 sudo pip install django-tagging==0.4
- Install Carbon, Whisper and Ceres Graphite components:Carbon is one of the components of Graphite, and is responsible for receiving metrics over the network and writing them down to disk using a storage backend.Whisper is a file-based time-series database format for Graphite.Ceres provides a file format for incoming metrics to be persisted when received from the network.
sudo pip install carbon sudo pip install whisper sudo pip install https://github.com/graphite-project/ceres/tarball/master
- Install Twisted:Twisted is an event-driven networking engine
sudo pip install Twisted==15.2.1
- Finally install Graphite, Graphite defaults to an installation layout that puts the entire install in its own directory:
/opt/graphite
:sudo pip install graphite-web sudo chown -R $(whoami):staff /opt/graphite
#Configuration Graphite default configuration layout is /opt/graphite/webapp/graphite/local_settings.py.example
:
cd /opt/graphite/webapp/graphite
cp local_settings.example local_settings
The database configuration is specified by the DATABASES dictionary inlocal_settings.py
file, be default sqlite is used, let’s initialize the database:
cd /opt/graphite/webapp/graphite
PYTHONPATH=/opt/graphite/webapp django-admin.py syncdb --settings=graphite.settings django-admin.py syncdb --settings=graphite.settings
Finally let’s configure carbon and initialize it:
pushd /opt/graphite/conf
cp carbon.conf.example carbon.conf
cp storage-schemas.conf.example storage-schemas.conf
python /opt/graphite/bin/carbon-cache.py start
python /opt/graphite/bin/run-graphite-devel-server.py /opt/graphite
Et voilà, Graphite is ready:
