# Collector

## Setup

Create a "collector.json" with the following format:

```json
{
    "graphite": {
        "server": "graphite.ducoterra.net",
        "port": 2003
    },
    "os": "osx", //osx or linux
    "data": {
        "storage": [
            {
                "path": "/Users/ducoterra",
                "name": "home"
            }, // as many paths as you want
        ]
    }
}
```

Make collect.py executable:

```bash
chmod +x collect.py
```

Schedule a cronjob to run collect.py at your preferred interval. Cronjob command is:

```bash
COLLECTOR_CONF=/root/collector/collector.json /root/collector/collect.py
```
