#Summary

This is a simple go client which can be used to send metrics to a statsd server running locally. The client reads the standard input for statsd commands. The valid commands are:

timing <name> <value> [sample_rate]
gauge <name> <value>  [sample_rate]
count <name> <value>  [sample_rate]

Running

Run:

go run main.go [PORT]

The optional parameter PORT specifies the port of the statsd server. It defaults to 8125.
