graphite-render 1.1.5

based on graphite-api, which is based graphite-web, but maintained for python3.

Note: This is a maintained friendly fork of the upstream project at https://github.com/brutasse/graphite-api.

Graphite-web, without the interface. Just the rendering HTTP API.

This is a minimalistic API server that replicates the behavior of Graphite-web. I removed everything I could and simplified as much code as possible while keeping the basic functionality.

Implemented API calls:

• /metrics/find

• /metrics/expand

• /render

No-ops:

• /dashboard/find

• /dashboard/load/<name>

• /events/get_data

Difference from graphite-web

• Stateless. No need for a database.

• No Pickle rendering.

• No remote rendering.

• JSON data in request bodies is supported, additionally to form data and querystring parameters.

• Ceres integration will be as an external backend.

• Compatibility with python 3.

• Easy to install and configure.

Goals

• Solid codebase. Good test coverage.

• Ease of installation/use/configuration.

• Compatibility with the original Graphite-web API and 3rd-party dashboards.

Non-goals

• Support for very old Python versions

• Built-in support for every metric storage system in the world. Whisper is included by default, other storages are added via 3rd-party backends.
