Metrics
=======

Airflow can be set up to send metrics to `StatsD <https://github.com/etsy/statsd>`__.

Setup
-----

First you must install statsd requirement:

.. code-block:: bash

   pip install 'apache-airflow[statsd]'

Add the following lines to your configuration file e.g. ``airflow.cfg``

.. code-block:: ini

    [scheduler]
    statsd_on = True
    statsd_host = localhost
    statsd_port = 8125
    statsd_prefix = airflow

If you want to avoid send all the available metrics to StatsD, you can configure an allow list of prefixes to send only
the metrics that start with the elements of the list:

.. code-block:: ini

    [scheduler]
    statsd_allow_list = scheduler,executor,dagrun
