<title>Overview</title>
<para>
The module provides the ability to send commands to statsd
(you can use InfluxDB too) with different kind of information.
It provides native integration with statsd (https://github.com/etsy/statsd/)
and graphite (http://graphite.wikidot.com/).
</para>
<para>
The module does not have any special dependency, it does a direct
socket connection to Graphite.

<para>
Sets count the number of unique values passed to a key.

<para>
If that method is called multiple times with the same userid in the same sample period, that userid will only be counted once.

<section id="statsd.f.statsd_gauge">
<title>
<function moreinfo="none">statsd_gauge(key, value)</function>
</title>
<para>
Gauges are a constant data type. They are not subject to averaging, and they dont change unless you change them. That is, once you set a gauge value, it will be a flat line on the graph until you change it again.
</para>
<para>
Gauges are useful for things that are already averaged, or dont need to reset periodically
</para>
<para>
This function can be used in ALL ROUTES.
</para>
<para>
The statsd server collects gauges under the stats.gauges prefix.

<section id="statsd.f.statsd_start">
<title>
<function moreinfo="none">statsd_start(key)</function>
</title>
<para>
statsd start set a avp with the key name, and when you use statsd_stop(key), module will send to statsd the difference in milliseconds. this is useful to know the time of a sql query, or how many time take your replies.
</para>
<para>
this function can be used in all routes.
</para>
<para>
the statsd server collects all timers under the stats.timers prefix, and will calculate the lower bound, mean, 90th percentile, upper bound, and count of each timer for each period (by the time you see it in graphite, thats usually per minute).
</para>
<example>
<title><function>statsd_start</function> usage</title>
<programlisting format="linespecific">
...
statsd_start("long_mysql_query");

<title>
<function moreinfo="none">statsd_stop(key)</function>
