Adhearsion Stats

This is an Adhearsion plugin for sending metrics to a statsd server.

Usage Example

class WellTrackedCallController < Adhearsion::CallController

  before_call :start_stats
  after_call  :end_stats

  def run
    answer
    ...
    hangup
  end

private

  def start_stats
    @call_started = Time.now.to_f
    AdhearsionStats.increment "calls.started"
    AdhearsionStats.gauge "calls.in_progress", "+1"
  end

  def end_stats
    AdhearsionStats.gauge "calls.in_progress", "-1"

    #Track call duration in ms
    call_duration = Time.now.to_f - @call_started
    AdhearsionStats.timing "calls.length", (call_duration * 1000).to_i
  end
end

Optional Logging

If you set the log_metrics option to true, it will generate a log file called adhearsion-stats.log next to the adhearsion.log showing every call send to statsd:

...
2014-01-14 01:08:53 PM: increment(foo)
2014-01-14 01:08:53 PM: timing(bar,100)
...

Stat Types

Counters (`#increment` and `#decrement`)

Either increments or decrements a simple counter. Mostly used for checking rate of things happening. By default will go up or down one, but you can also pass a value to increment a set amount:

AdhearsionStats.increment "foo", 10

Timers (`#timing` and `#time`)

Besides timing, can also be used for percents:

6.times do
  AdhearsionStats.timing "foo", 100
end

4.times do
  AdhearsionStats.timing "foo", 0
end

# Sixty percent of the time, it works every time!

A block method is also available if you want to time an action:

AdhearsionStats.time "time_spent_in_menu" do
  menu menu_message do
    ...
  end
end

Gauges (`#gauge`)

Used to track running counts of something - these aren't reset each flush period.

AdhearsionStats.gauge "foo", +4 #This now goes up 4 and stays up 4 until the next time the gauge is sent something

Note on Patches/Pull Requests

Fork the project.
Make your feature addition or bug fix.
Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
Commit, do not mess with Rakefile, version, or history.
- If you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself so I can ignore when I pull
Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
