# Dropwizard
The `dropwizard` data format can parse the [JSON Dropwizard][dropwizard] representation of a single dropwizard metric registry. By default, tags are parsed from metric names as if they were actual influxdb line protocol keys (`measurement<,tag_set>`) which can be overridden by defining a custom [template pattern][templates]. All field value types are supported, `string`, `number` and `boolean`.

[dropwizard]: http://metrics.dropwizard.io/3.1.0/manual/json/
### Configuration
```toml
[[inputs.file]]
files = ["example"]
## Data format to consume.
## Each data format has its own unique set of configuration options, read
## more about them here:
## https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/blob/master/docs/DATA_FORMATS_INPUT.md
data_format = "dropwizard"
## Used by the templating engine to join matched values when cardinality is > 1
separator = "_"
## Each template line requires a template pattern. It can have an optional
## filter before the template and separated by spaces. It can also have optional extra
## tags following the template. Multiple tags should be separated by commas and no spaces
## similar to the line protocol format. There can be only one default template.
## Templates support below format:
## 1. filter + template
## 2. filter + template + extra tag(s)
## 3. filter + template with field key
## 4. default template
## By providing an empty template array, templating is disabled and measurements are parsed as influxdb line protocol keys (measurement<,tag_set>)
templates = []
## You may use an appropriate [gjson path](https://github.com/tidwall/gjson#path-syntax)
## to locate the metric registry within the JSON document
# dropwizard_metric_registry_path = "metrics"
## You may use an appropriate [gjson path](https://github.com/tidwall/gjson#path-syntax)
## to locate the default time of the measurements within the JSON document
# dropwizard_time_path = "time"
# dropwizard_time_format = "2006-01-02T15:04:05Z07:00"
## You may use an appropriate [gjson path](https://github.com/tidwall/gjson#path-syntax)
## to locate the tags map within the JSON document
# dropwizard_tags_path = "tags"
## You may even use tag paths per tag
# [inputs.exec.dropwizard_tag_paths]
# tag1 = "tags.tag1"
# tag2 = "tags.tag2"
```
### Examples
A typical JSON of a dropwizard metric registry:
```json
{
"version": "3.0.0",
"counters" : {
"measurement,tag1=green" : {
"count" : 1
}
},
"meters" : {
"measurement" : {
"count" : 1,
"m15_rate" : 1.0,
"m1_rate" : 1.0,
"m5_rate" : 1.0,
"mean_rate" : 1.0,
"units" : "events/second"
}
},
"gauges" : {
"measurement" : {
"value" : 1
}
},
"histograms" : {
"measurement" : {
"count" : 1,
"max" : 1.0,
"mean" : 1.0,
"min" : 1.0,
"p50" : 1.0,
"p75" : 1.0,
"p95" : 1.0,
"p98" : 1.0,
"p99" : 1.0,
"p999" : 1.0,
"stddev" : 1.0
}
},
"timers" : {
"measurement" : {
"count" : 1,
"max" : 1.0,
"mean" : 1.0,
"min" : 1.0,
"p50" : 1.0,
"p75" : 1.0,
"p95" : 1.0,
"p98" : 1.0,
"p99" : 1.0,
"p999" : 1.0,
"stddev" : 1.0,
"m15_rate" : 1.0,
"m1_rate" : 1.0,
"m5_rate" : 1.0,
"mean_rate" : 1.0,
"duration_units" : "seconds",
"rate_units" : "calls/second"
}
}
}
```
Would get translated into 4 different measurements:
```
measurement,metric_type=counter,tag1=green count=1
measurement,metric_type=meter count=1,m15_rate=1.0,m1_rate=1.0,m5_rate=1.0,mean_rate=1.0
measurement,metric_type=gauge value=1
measurement,metric_type=histogram count=1,max=1.0,mean=1.0,min=1.0,p50=1.0,p75=1.0,p95=1.0,p98=1.0,p99=1.0,p999=1.0
measurement,metric_type=timer count=1,max=1.0,mean=1.0,min=1.0,p50=1.0,p75=1.0,p95=1.0,p98=1.0,p99=1.0,p999=1.0,stddev=1.0,m15_rate=1.0,m1_rate=1.0,m5_rate=1.0,mean_rate=1.0
```
You may also parse a dropwizard registry from any JSON document which contains a dropwizard registry in some inner field.
Eg. to parse the following JSON document:
```json
{
"time" : "2017-02-22T14:33:03.662+02:00",
"tags" : {
"tag1" : "green",
"tag2" : "yellow"
},
"metrics" : {
"counters" : {
"measurement" : {
"count" : 1
}
},
"meters" : {},
"gauges" : {},
"histograms" : {},
"timers" : {}
}
}
```
and translate it into:
```
measurement,metric_type=counter,tag1=green,tag2=yellow count=1 1487766783662000000
```
you simply need to use the following additional configuration properties:
```toml
dropwizard_metric_registry_path = "metrics"
dropwizard_time_path = "time"
dropwizard_time_format = "2006-01-02T15:04:05Z07:00"
dropwizard_tags_path = "tags"
## tag paths per tag are supported too, eg.
#[inputs.yourinput.dropwizard_tag_paths]
# tag1 = "tags.tag1"
# tag2 = "tags.tag2"
```
