DESCRIPTION

RRDTool::Rawish is a RRDtool command wrapper class with rawish interface. You can use the class like RRDtool command interface. Almost all of modules with RRD prefix are RRDs module wrappers. It's troublesome to use RRDs with variable environments because it's a XS module and moreover not a CPAN module. In contrast, RRDTool::Rawish has less dependencies and it's easy to install it.

METHODS

my $rrd = RRDTool::Rawish->new([%args])

Creates a new instance of RRDTool::Rawish. %args need to be specified in key => value format. The following options are supported:

rrdfile

This option specifies the rrdfile that RRD::Rawish is working on. It's mandatory for most of the rrdtool operations.

rrdtool_path

This is the path to the rrdtool binary that should be used. RRD::Rawish will use the rrdtool binary that's in the user path. You can override this behavior to use a different rrdtool binary. This allows multiple rrdtools to be installed, it also simplifies the usage of a binary that's not in the default path.

remote

This is option to support the rrdcached daemon. You can specifiy a unix file or network socket. Unix file sockets need to be prefixed with unix: e.g. unix:/var/run/rrdcached.sock. As RRD::Rawish uses the rrdtool binary itself the environment variable RRDCACHED_ADDRESS is well respected. Setting the environment variable allows transparent integration.

$rrd->version()

Returns rrdtool's version like "1.47".

$rrd->errstr()

Returns rrdtool's stderr string. If no error occurs, it returns empty string.

$rrd->create($params, [\%opts])

Returns exit status.

rrdtool create

$rrd->update($params, [\%opts])

Returns exit status.

rrdtool update

$rrd->graph($filename, $params, [\%opts]) Returns exit status

rrdtool graph

Returns image binary.

$rrd->dump([\%opts])

rrdtool dump

Returns xml data.

$rrd->restore($xmlfile, [\%opts])

rrdtool restore

Returns exit status.

$rrd->lastupdate

rrdtool lastupdate

Returns timestamp.

$rrd->fetch

rrdtool fetch Returns output lines as an ARRAY reference

$rrd->xport

rrdtool xport

Returns xml data.

$rrd->flushcached

rrdtool flushcached

Sends a flush command to rrdcached for the rrdfile.

Returns exit status.

$rrd->info

rrdtool info

Returns info as a HASH reference.

    is $value->{rrd_version}, "0003";
