- Ruby
Published by remeh over 4 years ago

https://github.com/DataDog/dogstatsd-ruby - v5.3.0 / 2021.10.06

  • [ENHANCEMENT] Automatically re-allocate resources (e.g. background thread) if dogstatsd-ruby is used in an application using forks #205 by @remeh
    This will help in scenarios where applications are not handling cleanup/re-creation of the dogstatsd-ruby instances in forked processes. If you are an user of v4.x versions of dogstatsd-ruby and want to migrate to v5.x, please make sure to go through this section of the README and through the migration guide.

  • [BUGFIX] Fix client telemetry in applications using forks #205 by @remeh

Please note that this version will emit a deprecation message if you are using ruby < 2.1: we plan to drop support for ruby 2.0 in a future minor release.

https://github.com/DataDog/dogstatsd-ruby - v5.2.0 / 2021.07.01

  • [FEATURE] Add single_thread mode for users having issues with the companion thread. #194 by @remeh

You can use this mode to avoid spawning a companion thread while using v5.x versions:

# Import the library
require 'datadog/statsd'

# Create a DogStatsD client instance.
statsd = Datadog::Statsd.new('localhost', 8125, single_thread: true)
...
# release resources used by the client instance and flush last metrics
statsd.close()

Note that if you want to restore the behavior of v4.x versions, you can also configure the buffer to flush on every metric submission:

# Import the library
require 'datadog/statsd'

# Create a DogStatsD client instance using UDP
statsd = Datadog::Statsd.new('localhost', 8125, single_thread: true, buffer_max_pool_size: 1)
...
# to close the instance is not necessary in this case since metrics are flushed on submission
# but it is still a good practice and it explicitely closes the socket
statsd.close()

https://github.com/DataDog/dogstatsd-ruby - v5.1.0 / 2021.06.17

  • [FEATURE] Flush last metrics on Statsd#close #180 by @kbogtob
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Do not try to flush where there is no available message_queue [#189][] by @remeh
  • [OTHER] Add pry to development dependencies and enable gem in Gemfile #192 by @ivoanjo
  • [OTHER] Expand Ruby Support to Rubies 2.6, 2.7, and 3.0 [#191][] by @laserlemon

Known issues

If the DogStatsD client is instantiated before a fork, the forked process won't copy the companion thread that the original client needs to flush and the client won't work properly. This issue will be addressed in an upcoming version. If you are concerned by this issue, please read this section of the README.

https://github.com/DataDog/dogstatsd-ruby - v5.0.1 / 2021.04.09

  • [OTHER] Re-introduce a Statsd#batch method to help with compatibility with v4.x versions. #176 by @remeh
    • It is deprecated and will be removed in v6.x
    • It does not have the exact same behavior as the batch method from v4.x versions since the flush could now automatically occur while the batch block is executed if the buffer has been filled.
  • [BUGFIX] Safely close concurrent resources on Sender #175 by @marcotc

https://github.com/DataDog/dogstatsd-ruby - v5.0.0 / 2021.04.07

API breaking changes

  1. This new major version uses automatic buffering with preemptive flushing, there is no need to manually batch the metrics together anymore. The preemptive flushing part means that just before the buffer gets full, a flush is triggered. Manual flush is still possible with the Statsd#flush method. The Statsd#batch method has been removed from the API. What would have been written this way with the v4 API:
require 'datadog/statsd'

statsd = Datadog::Statsd.new('127.0.0.1', 8125)

statsd.batch do |s|
  s.increment('example_metric.increment', tags: ['environment:dev'])
  s.gauge('example_metric.gauge', 123, tags: ['environment:dev'])
end

should be written this way with the v5 API:

require 'datadog/statsd'

statsd = Datadog::Statsd.new('127.0.0.1', 8125)

statsd.increment('example_metric.increment', tags: ['environment:dev'])
statsd.gauge('example_metric.gauge', 123, tags: ['environment:dev'])

# synchronous flush
statsd.flush(sync: true)
  1. Statsd#initialize parameter max_buffer_bytes has been renamed to buffer_max_payload_size for consistency with the new automatic batch strategy. Please note the addition of buffer_max_pool_size to limit the maximum amount of messages to buffer.

resolve the host.
