Support for statsd tags #11

Closed sumedhsakdeo closed 3 years ago

sumedhsakdeo commented 5 years ago

We were wondering if tags are supported by this client library and how they should be used. We are looking something similar to python statsd client metrics tagging feature

    import statsd
    c = statsd.StatsClient('localhost', 8125, prefix='foo')
    c.incr('bar', tags = {"key1": "value1", "key2":"value2"})

As discussed here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49852654/sending-statsd-metrics-with-tags-from-python-client

Hi,

Tags are not yet supported by this client. I suppose we could support tags in the same way this Go client does, maybe using templates.

Unfortunately, I won't have the time to work on this right now, but PRs are very welcome.

@kevinkreiser I reopened this issue since tags support is also a requirement for your use-case
