wsgi-statsd 0.2.0

Usage

In your wsgi.py file wrap your WSGI application as follows:

import statsd
from wsgi_statsd import StatsdTimingMiddleware


def application(environ, start_response):
    response_body = 'The request method was %s' % environ['REQUEST_METHOD']
    status = '200 OK'
    response_headers = [('Content-Type', 'text/plain'),
                        ('Content-Length', str(len(response_body)))]

    start_response(status, response_headers)

    return [response_body]

client = statsd.StatsClient(
    prefix='your_prefix',
    host='your_host',
    port=8125
)

application = StatsdTimingMiddleware(application, client)

What it does

The middleware uses the statsd timer function, using the environ[‘PATH_INFO’], environ[‘REQUEST_METHOD’] and the status code variables as the name for the key and the amount of time the request took as the value.

That’s it.

If you want more granular reporting you’ll have to work with the prefix argument. You can pass any string you want and the middleware will pass it along to statsd.

Using the foo prefix and calling the www.spam.com/bar page will result in foo.bar.GET.200 having a value equal to the time it took to handle the request.
