Package org.rrd4j.core

Class RrdDb

java.lang.Object
org.rrd4j.core.RrdDb
All Implemented Interfaces:
Closeable, AutoCloseable, RrdUpdater<RrdDb>
public class RrdDb extends Object implements RrdUpdater<RrdDb>, Closeable

Main class used to create and manipulate round robin databases (RRDs). Use this class to perform update and fetch operations on existing RRDs, to create new RRD from the definition (object of class RrdDef) or from XML file (dumped content of RRDTool's or Rrd4j's RRD file).

Each RRD is backed with some kind of storage. For example, RRDTool supports only one kind of storage (disk file). On the contrary, Rrd4j gives you freedom to use other storage (backend) types even to create your own backend types for some special purposes. Rrd4j by default stores RRD data in files (as RRDTool), but you might choose to store RRD data in memory (this is supported in Rrd4j), to use java.nio.* instead of java.io.* package for file manipulation (also supported) or to store whole RRDs in the SQL database (you'll have to extend some classes to do this).

Note that Rrd4j uses binary format different from RRDTool's format. You cannot use this class to manipulate RRD files created with RRDTool. However, if you perform the same sequence of create, update and fetch operations, you will get exactly the same results from Rrd4j and RRDTool.

You will not be able to use Rrd4j API if you are not familiar with basic RRDTool concepts. Good place to start is the official RRD tutorial and relevant RRDTool man pages: rrdcreate, rrdupdate, rrdfetch and rrdgraph. For RRDTool's advanced graphing capabilities (RPN extensions), also supported in Rrd4j, there is an excellent CDEF tutorial.

      Deprecated.
      Use the builder instead.

      Constructor used to create new RRD object from the definition. If the rrdDef was constructed giving an URI, RrdBackendFactory.findFactory(URI) will be used to resolve the needed factory. If not, or a relative URI was given, this RRD object will be backed with a storage (backend) of the default type. Initially, storage type defaults to "NIO" (RRD bytes will be put in a file on the disk). Default storage type can be changed with a static RrdBackendFactory.setDefaultFactory(String) method call.

      New RRD file structure is specified with an object of class RrdDef. The underlying RRD storage is created as soon as the constructor returns.

      Typical scenario:

       // create new RRD definition
 RrdDef def = new RrdDef("test.rrd", 300);
 def.addDatasource("input", DsType.DT_COUNTER, 600, 0, Double.NaN);
 def.addDatasource("output", DsType.DT_COUNTER, 600, 0, Double.NaN);
 def.addArchive(ConsolFun.CF_AVERAGE, 0.5, 1, 600);
 def.addArchive(ConsolFun.CF_AVERAGE, 0.5, 6, 700);
 def.addArchive(ConsolFun.CF_AVERAGE, 0.5, 24, 797);
 def.addArchive(ConsolFun.CF_AVERAGE, 0.5, 288, 775);
 def.addArchive(ConsolFun.CF_MAX, 0.5, 1, 600);
 def.addArchive(ConsolFun.CF_MAX, 0.5, 6, 700);
 def.addArchive(ConsolFun.CF_MAX, 0.5, 24, 797);
 def.addArchive(ConsolFun.CF_MAX, 0.5, 288, 775);

 // RRD definition is now completed, create the database!
 RrdDb rrd = new RrdDb(def);
 // new RRD file has been created on your disk
      Parameters:
      rrdDef - Object describing the structure of the new RRD file.
      Throws:
      IOException - Thrown in case of I/O error.

    • RrdDb

      @Deprecated public RrdDb(RrdDef rrdDef, RrdBackendFactory factory) throws IOException
      Deprecated.
      Use the builder instead.

      Constructor used to create new RRD object from the definition object but with a storage (backend) different from default.

      Rrd4j uses factories to create RRD backend objects. There are three different backend factories supplied with Rrd4j, and each factory has its unique name:

      • FILE: backends created from this factory will store RRD data to files by using java.io.* classes and methods
      • NIO: backends created from this factory will store RRD data to files by using java.nio.* classes and methods
      • MEMORY: backends created from this factory will store RRD data in memory. This might be useful in runtime environments which prohibit disk utilization, or for storing temporary, non-critical data (it gets lost as soon as JVM exits).

      For example, to create RRD in memory, use the following code:

       RrdBackendFactory factory = RrdBackendFactory.getFactory("MEMORY");
 RrdDb rrdDb = new RrdDb(rrdDef, factory);
 rrdDb.close();

      New RRD file structure is specified with an object of class RrdDef. The underlying RRD storage is created as soon as the constructor returns.

      Parameters:
      rrdDef - RRD definition object
      factory - The factory which will be used to create storage for this RRD
      Throws:
      IOException - Thrown in case of I/O error

      @Deprecated public RrdDb(String path, boolean readOnly) throws IOException
      Deprecated.
      Use the builder instead.

      Parameters:
      path - Path to existing RRD.
      readOnly - Should be set to false if you want to update the underlying RRD. If you want just to fetch data from the RRD file (read-only access), specify true. If you try to update RRD file open in read-only mode (readOnly set to true), IOException will be thrown.
      Throws:
      IOException - Thrown in case of I/O error.

    • RrdDb

      @Deprecated public RrdDb(String rrdPath, String externalPath) throws IOException
      Deprecated.
      Use the builder instead.

      Constructor used to create RRD files from external file sources. Supported external file sources are:

      • RRDTool/Rrd4j XML file dumps (i.e files created with rrdtool dump command).
      • RRDTool binary files.

      The path for the new rrd will be parsed as an URI and checked against the active factories. If it's a relative URI (no scheme given, or just a plain path), the default factory will be used.

      Rrd4j and RRDTool use the same format for XML dump and this constructor should be used to (re)create Rrd4j RRD files from XML dumps. First, dump the content of a RRDTool RRD file (use command line):

       rrdtool dump original.rrd > original.xml

      Than, use the file original.xml to create Rrd4j RRD file named copy.rrd:

       RrdDb rrd = new RrdDb("copy.rrd", "original.xml");

      or:

       RrdDb rrd = new RrdDb("copy.rrd", "xml:/original.xml");

      See documentation for dumpXml() method to see how to convert Rrd4j files to RRDTool's format.

      To read RRDTool files directly, specify rrdtool:/ prefix in the externalPath argument. For example, to create Rrd4j compatible file named copy.rrd from the file original.rrd created with RRDTool, use the following code:

       RrdDb rrd = new RrdDb("copy.rrd", "rrdtool:/original.rrd");

      Note that the prefix xml:/ or rrdtool:/ is necessary to distinguish between XML and RRDTool's binary sources. If no prefix is supplied, XML format is assumed.

      Parameters:
      rrdPath - Path to a RRD file which will be created
      externalPath - Path to an external file which should be imported, with an optional xml:/ or rrdtool:/ prefix.
      Throws:
      IOException - Thrown in case of I/O error
