go-memkeys

Overview

Memcached top-like cache key monitoring utility inspired by the mctop/memkeys projects.

Installation

Follow the simple golang process steps of get, build, and run. The application also relies on the pcap library, so ensure that is installed on your OS before you perform the next steps.

> git clone https://github.com/darthhexx/go-memkeys

> cd go-memkeys

> go get

> go build

Running

The required parameters are what you would expect.

Usage of ./go-memkeys:
  -i string
    	Interface to read packets from. (default "en0")
  -limitrows int
    	Limits the number of records output to JSON. This is only used in conjunction with 'polloutput'. (default 5000)
  -order string
    	Whether to sort in (desc)ending or (asc)ending order. (default "desc")
  -p int
    	Port number. (default 11211)
  -polloutput int
    	Capture data, write to JSON output, and exit after 'polloutput' seconds. (max is 120 seconds)
  -profile
    	Output cpu profile data to a 'cpu-profile' file.
  -sortby string
    	Column to sort the data on. (default "bandwidth")

Export data in JSON format

In order to export all the data recorded by the application; press 'd' (dump) during execution. A file will be saved as {timestamp}-stats.json in the applcation's directory, assuming the user has the required directory ACLs.

To run the app in a no-gui mode that only outputs JSON, use the polloutput number-of-secs command:

go-memkeys -i en0 -p 11211 -polloutput 5

This will capture data for 5 seconds and then output the JSON data to stdout.

Other useful flags are the sortby, order, and limitrows that allow you to set which colums to sort on ascending or descending and how many records to output after the sorting.
