# serf-td-agent

td-agent process management with [serf](http://www.serfdom.io/)

## Installation

Use RubyGems:

```
gem install serf-td-agent
```

The `serf` command is automatically downloaded and bundled into the `bin` directory. Set the environment variable `PATH` as:

```
export PATH=$(gem path serf-td-agent)/bin:$PATH
```

## How to setup the serf cluster

Run the first serf at any of hosts to run td-agent like:

```bash
$ serf agent -event-handler=serf-td-agent
```

Run later serfs at other hosts to run td-agent like:

```bash
$ serf agent -join=${the first serf address} -event-handler=serf-td-agent
```

Hint: `-log-level=debug` option should be helpful for debugging. 

## How to start td-agent via serf

Send a serf event from any of hosts running the serf like:

```bash
$ serf event td-agent-start
```

This will propagate the `start` event to the entire serf cluster and execute `sudo /etc/init.d/td-agent start` at all hosts.

## Available events

Following events are available: 

* `td-agent-start`
* `td-agent-stop`
* `td-agent-reload`
* `td-agent-restart`
* `td-agent-condrestart`
* `td-agent-status`
* `td-agent-configtest`

which corresponds with /etc/init.d/td-agent command. 

## ToDo

Use `serf query` for commands which requires responses like `status` and `configtest`.
