A simple StatsD listener
Mini-StatsD is just a simple UDP server that listens to (and prints) StatsD-like messages sent to some port on your system.
$ gem install mini_statsd
$ bundle install
$ mini_statsd
Simple as that :)
If you want to set a specific port and binding host, just run:
$ mini_statsd <port> <host>
Like:
$ mini_statsd 9125 0.0.0.0
A simple example of a code that sends the statsd message from the gif can be found here
