Non-web API for accessing Whisper and Carbon
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
