Great work.
I'll surely be using that python interface for my pet project Job
Monarch, which also injects massive amounts of gmetrics. Nice to see a
pure python module.
As to integrating it, it's not my call (Martin, Matt?), but I would vote
yes. ;)
Cheers,

Hi folks,
you may find the following interesting
http://code.google.com/p/embeddedgmetric/
It provides a _very_ small C/C++ library to send gmond/gmetric packets.
It does not require a configuration file and is very lightweight. It's
really 2 ".c" files.
Also, a description of the "gmetric protocol" is listed.
And finally a 100% pure python module to send statistics into gmond,
again no config file needed (one file).
This library is used in production on a application that handles 2-3
billion transactions per day, from 1200+ machines, to inject 50+
application level stats into gmond every minute.
The original libganglia had a few problems for embedding into a C++
application, namely it reads a conf file every time, need apr_pools and
ganglia.h doesnt' compile as C++ (patch forthcoming). In the process I
found a few other nits involving how the slope is used in gmetric
(another patch forthcoming)
I'd be open to integrating this into the official distribution.
Comments, thoughts, all welcome.
Thanks,

There are really only three types of people:
Those who make things happen, those who watch things happen
and those who say, "What happened?"
