Re: [Question #247199]: Non-web API for accessing Whisper and Carbon

 

Question #247199 on Graphite changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/graphite/+question/247199

Description changed to:
Hello,

My team is working on a Python project in which we need to read values
fed into Carbon by Shinken. I'm aware that one of my options is to
install graphite-web and call the render web service, but I would prefer
to read the values without having to call a web service. The reasons for
this are that first, the graphite-web package installs a few
dependencies like Django that we do not need, and second, because it
makes more sense to me to directly call a python library from a python
project without having to use a web stack.

So my first question is: are there any plans for doing  an independant
(non web) library for reading Whisper/Carbon values ? Did I miss an
option for doing so ?

If there is no option and no plan, we may do our own library based on
the graphite-web code base. If we end up doing this, we would be willing
to contribute to the Graphite project with it, it you think you could
make use of it. So let me know if that's the case !

Thanks
