A library for Grafana data submissions. You can use this library to create data structures for submission that is compatible with the format of the write_http module for collectd.
The interface here is quite simple. To create a chunk of data for submission, you simply do the following:
from gdata_subm import Gdata
data = Gdata(
plugin='plugin_name',
dstypes=['gauge', 'derive', 'counter'],
dsnames=['metric1', 'metric2', 'metric3'],
values=[1.0, 2.0, 3.0],
host='host.example.com',
interval=5.0,
)
Then, you can use the http submitter to submit your data to the server.
from gdata_subm import GdataSubmit
subm = GdataSubmit(
username='myuser',
password='supersecret',
url='https://receiver.example.com',
)
success = subm.send_data([data])
That's it. GdataSubmit.send_data() takes a list of Gdata objects and sends them to your server.
