NAME

Net::HAProxy - control HAProxy through a socket

VERSION

version 0.001

SYNOPSIS

    use Try::Tiny;
    use Net::HAProxy;

    my $haproxy = Net::HAProxy->new(
        socket => '/var/run/haproxy-services.sock',
        timeout => 1 # default
    );

    # dump statistics
    print Dumper $haproxy->stats;

    # specify which statistics to list
    print $haproxy->stats({ iid => 2, sid => 1, type => -1});

    # info about haproxy status
    print Dumper $haproxy->info;

    try {
        $haproxy->enable_server('pxname', 'svname');
    } catch {
        print "Couldn't enable server: $_\n";
    };

    try {
        $haproxy->disable_server('pxname', 'svname');
    } catch {
        print "Couldn't disable server: $_\n";
    };

    try {
        $haproxy->set_weight('pxname', 'svname', 50);
    } catch {
        print "Couldn't set weighting: $_\n";
    };

METHODS

stats

Arguments: ({ iid => -1, sid => -1, type => -1}) sid => service id, -1 for all services (default). iid => unique proxy id, -1 for all proxies (default). type => 1 for frontends, 2 for backends, 4 for servers, -1 for all (default)

    these values can be ORed, for example:
          1 + 2     = 3   -> frontend + backend.
          1 + 2 + 4 = 7   -> frontend + backend + server.

Returns: array of hashes, keys described below

If your using an earlier version of HAProxy this should still work, please check the docs for the right field descriptions http://haproxy.1wt.eu/download/1.3/doc/configuration.txt
