OLD TOY PROJECT - NOT MAINTAINED
If you want to play around, feel free to fork the project and hack away. If you're thinking of serious use, I'll be happy to hand over the project.
For play/experimentation/single-server version of Graphite.
Front-ends are pieces of code that talk to the world around it. They, in turn, talk to a backend.
Back-ends are chained, and commands modified/passed from one to the next until the request is processed in it's entirety.
go get github.com/msiebuhr/MetricBase
go build ./bin/MetricBase/
Start the server
./MetricBase
It listens for the Graphite text protocol on TCP port 2003 and has a webserver
running on http://localhost:8080/ that serves a simple front-end from
/http-pub/.
