nginx-statsd-sidecar 0.2.1

A sidecar for nginx to send statsd metrics to a statsd server

nginx_statsd_sidecar

The purpose of this container is to be deployed alongside a Docker container running nginx and to report the stats that are reported from the ngx_http_stub_status_module module to a statsd server. It polls stats from nginx every 10 seconds (this is configurable via an environment variable).

nginx_statsd_sidecar reports these stats to statsd:

• requests the number of requests that nginx has handled since the last time nginx_statsd_sidecar retrieved stats from nginx
• active_connections the number of currently active nginx connections
• reading the number of active nginx connections in reading state
• writing the number of active nginx connections in writing state
• waiting the number of active nginx connections in waiting state
