====================

Chef Handler to send metrics to Librato metrics!

##Description

This is a simple Chef report handler that reports status of a Chef run through librato.

    http://wiki.opscode.com/display/chef/Exception+and+Report+Handlers

Requirements:

There are two ways to use Chef Handlers.

##Method 1

You can install the RubyGem ahead of time, and configure Chef to use them. To do so:

	gem install chef-handler-librato

Then add to the configuration (/etc/chef/solo.rb for chef-solo or /etc/chef/client.rb for chef-client):

	require "chef-handler-librato"

##### Configure the handler:

	librato_handler = LibratoReporting.new

#### Arguments:

#### Email and Api_key arguments

	librato_handler.email = "[email protected]"

	librato_handler.api_key = "667hhff544300096423345"

### Add your handler:

	report_handlers << librato_handler

	exception_handlers << librato_handler

##Method 2

Use the chef_handler cookbook by Opscode. Create a recipe with the following:

##### Install the `chef-handler-librato` RubyGem during the compile phase

	gem_package "chef-handler-librato" do

 	 action :nothing

  	end.run_action(:install)

  

or 

	chef_gem "chef-handler-librato" # This workd with Chef-0.10.10 or higher

### Activate the handler with the `chef_handler` LWRP

	argument_array = [

	:metric_type => "counter" ,

	:email => "[email protected]",

	:api_key => "c544637891cf5498f9efac33257689rtt57777894" 

	]

	

	chef_handler "LibratoReporting" do

		 source Gem.find_files.(chef/chef_handler_librato).first

 		 arguments argument_array

  		 action :nothing

	end.run_action(:enable)
