NAME

RRDp - Attach rrdtool from within a perl script via a set of pipes;
 

SYNOPSIS

RRDp::start path to rrdtool executable

RRDp::cmd rrdtool commandline

$answer = RRD::read

$status = RRD::end

$RRDp::user, $RRDp::sys, $RRDp::real  

DESCRIPTION

After every RRDp::cmd you have to issue an RRDp::read command to get rrdtools answer to your command. The answer is returned as a pointer, in order to speed things up. If the last command did not return any data, RRDp::read will return an undefined variable.

If you import the PERFORMANCE variables into your namespace, you can access rrdtools internal performance measurements.

use RRDp

Load the RRDp::pipe module.

RRDp::start path to rrdtool executable

start rrdtool. The argument must be the path to the rrdtool executable

RRDp::cmd rrdtool commandline

pass commands on to rrdtool. check the rrdtool documentation for more info on the rrdtool commands.

$answer = RRDp::read

read rrdtools response to your command. Note that the $answer variable will only contain a pointer to the returned data. The reason for this is, that rrdtool can potentially return quite excessive amounts of data and we don't want to copy this around in memory. So when you want to access the contents of $answer you have to use $$answer which dereferences the variable.

$status = RRDp::end

terminates rrdtool and returns rrdtools status ...

$RRDp::user, $RRDp::sys, $RRDp::real

these variables will contain totals of the user time, system time and real time as seen by rrdtool. User time is the time rrdtool is running, System time is the time spend in system calls and real time is the total time rrdtool has been running.

The difference between user + system and real is the time spent waiting for things like the hard disk and new input from the perl script.

EXAMPLE

 use RRDp;
 RRDp::start "/usr/bin/rrdtool";
 RRDp::cmd   qw(create demo.rrd --step 100 
               DS:in:GAUGE:100:U:U
               RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:10);
 $answer = RRDp::read;
 print $$answer;
 ($usertime,$systemtime,$realtime) =  ($RRDp::user,$RRDp::sys,$RRDp::real);
