NAME

Metrics::Any::Adapter::DogStatsd - a metrics reporting adapter for DogStatsd

SYNOPSIS

use Metrics::Any::Adapter 'DogStatsd';

DESCRIPTION

This extension of Metrics::Any::Adapter::Statsd supports the additional tag reporting syntax defined by DogStatsd to report labelled metrics.

Additionally, distribution metrics are reported as native DogStatsd histograms rather than the two-part count-and-sum implementation of plain statsd. Due to limitations of the line-based protocol, certain characters are not allowed in label names or values. Any :, |, , or linefeeds are replaced by _.
