{ /* private fields */ }
Expand description

Builder for adding tags to in-progress metrics.

This builder adds tags, key-value pairs or just values, to a metric that was previously constructed by a call to a method on StatsdClient. The tags are added to metrics and sent via the client when MetricBuilder::send() or MetricBuilder::try_send()is invoked. Any errors encountered constructing, validating, or sending the metrics will be propagated and returned when those methods are finally invoked.

Currently, only Datadog style tags are supported. For more information on the exact format used, see the Datadog docs.

Adding tags to a metric via this builder will typically result in one or more extra heap allocations.

NOTE: The only way to instantiate an instance of this builder is via methods in in the StatsdClient client.

Examples

.try_send()

An example of how the metric builder is used with a StatsdClient instance is given below.

use cadence::prelude::*;
use cadence::{StatsdClient, NopMetricSink, Metric};

let client = StatsdClient::from_sink("some.prefix", NopMetricSink);
let res = client.count_with_tags("some.key", 1)
   .with_tag("host", "app11.example.com")
   .with_tag("segment", "23")
   .with_tag_value("beta")
   .try_send();

assert_eq!(
    concat!(
        "some.prefix.some.key:1|c|#",
        "host:app11.example.com,",
        "segment:23,",
        "beta"
    ),
    res.unwrap().as_metric_str()
);

In this example, two key-value tags and one value tag are added to the metric before it is finally sent to the Statsd server.

.send()

An example of how the metric builder is used with a StatsdClient instance when using the “quiet” method is given below.

use cadence::prelude::*;
use cadence::{StatsdClient, NopMetricSink, Metric};

let client = StatsdClient::builder("some.prefix", NopMetricSink)
    .with_error_handler(|e| eprintln!("metric error: {}", e))
    .build();
client.count_with_tags("some.key", 1)
   .with_tag("host", "app11.example.com")
   .with_tag("segment", "23")
   .with_tag_value("beta")
   .send();

Note that nothing is returned from the .send() method. Any errors encountered in this case will be passed to the error handler we registered.

Implementations

Add a key-value tag to this metric.

Example
use cadence::prelude::*;
use cadence::{StatsdClient, NopMetricSink, Metric};

let client = StatsdClient::from_sink("some.prefix", NopMetricSink);
let res = client.count_with_tags("some.key", 1)
   .with_tag("user", "authenticated")
   .try_send();

assert_eq!(
   "some.prefix.some.key:1|c|#user:authenticated",
   res.unwrap().as_metric_str()
);

Add a value tag to this metric.

Example
use cadence::prelude::*;
use cadence::{StatsdClient, NopMetricSink, Metric};

let client = StatsdClient::from_sink("some.prefix", NopMetricSink);
let res = client.count_with_tags("some.key", 4)
   .with_tag_value("beta-testing")
   .try_send();

assert_eq!(
   "some.prefix.some.key:4|c|#beta-testing",
   res.unwrap().as_metric_str()
);

Send a metric using the client that created this builder.

Note that the builder is consumed by this method and thus .try_send() can only be called a single time per builder.

Example
use cadence::prelude::*;
use cadence::{StatsdClient, NopMetricSink, Metric};

let client = StatsdClient::from_sink("some.prefix", NopMetricSink);
let res = client.gauge_with_tags("some.key", 7)
   .with_tag("test-segment", "12345")
   .try_send();

assert_eq!(
   "some.prefix.some.key:7|g|#test-segment:12345",
   res.unwrap().as_metric_str()
);

Send a metric using the client that created this builder, discarding successful results and invoking a custom handler for error results.

By default, if no handler is given, a “no-op” handler is used that simply discards all errors. If this isn’t desired, a custom handler should be supplied when creating a new StatsdClient instance.

Note that the builder is consumed by this method and thus .send() can only be called a single time per builder.

Example
use cadence::prelude::*;
use cadence::{StatsdClient, MetricError, NopMetricSink};

fn my_handler(err: MetricError) {
    println!("Metric error: {}", err);
}

let client = StatsdClient::builder("some.prefix", NopMetricSink)
    .with_error_handler(my_handler)
    .build();

client.gauge_with_tags("some.key", 7)
   .with_tag("region", "us-west-1")
   .send();
