sysutils/dwatch-json 1.2 DragonFly

DTrace suite for FreeBSD dwatch(1) to produce JSON stats. JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is easily consumed by log aggregators such as Kafka and Telegraf and visualizers like Grafana and Vizceral. It is also easily parsed, filtered, and transformed with jq.

With this package you can get data out of the kernel for use in such tools, aggregators, and visualizers.

Included in this package are service suites which help automate the collection of statistics for time-series graphing (with Grafana for example). The suites consist of general daemons, sample configs, statistics-gathering daemons (utilizing telegraf), log-rotation tools, default cron.d entries for calling said tools, and many convenience features including full service(8) integration and rc.conf(5) support.
