= DESCRIPTION:

Installs and configures Statsd (http://github.com/etsy/statsd)

= REQUIREMENTS:

Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty)

= ATTRIBUTES:

* statsd/port : The port for Statsd to listen for stats on.
* statsd/graphite_host : The host to forward processed statistics to.
* statsd/graphite_port : The port to forward processed statistics to.

= USAGE:

Include the statsd recipe, which will checkout Statsd from git, build a Debian package from it, 
and then install the package. Statsd is run under a "statsd" system user.

By default statsd will attempt to send statistics to a graphite instance running on localhost, which
can be configured using the Graphite cookbook at http://community.opscode.com/cookbooks/graphite.

= CAVEATS:

This cookbook has only been tested on Ubuntu Natty (11.04). That is due to it using the "nodejs" package
rather then attempting to build Node from source.
