Remnant hooks into your Rails and discovers your hidden statistics.

Supports

• Rails 2.3.x

Install

$ [sudo] gem install remnant

# For Rails 2.3.x
gem 'remnant'

Usage

Add an initializer to configure (or call configure during application startup):

Remnant.configure do
  # hostname of statsd server
  host "https://remnant.statsd"

  # port of statsd server
  port 8125

  # app name or other unique key for multiple app usage
  tagged "custom"

  # environment of application, defaults to Rails.env
  # included in payload
  environment "production"
end

Remnant::Rails.setup! # needed if on Rails 2.3.x

Note

Remnant logs to statsd only if your environment is production, demo or staging. For all other environments it logs via Rails.logger.info
