=========

**A python rrdtool facade** - work in progress

The purpose of thie rrdtool-cli facade library is to make

the configuration of rrd creation, update and graph easier and faster.

```python

import pyrrdtool as rrd

db = rrd.Database.load('tests/samples/mini.rrd')

speed = rrd.Variable(db, 'speed')

g = rrd.Graph([rrd.DEF.from_variable(speed)],

              [rrd.AREA.from_variable(speed, {'color': 'ffffcc'}),

              rrd.LINE.from_variable(speed, {'width': 2, 'color': 'ccff33'})])

png_binary = g.draw()

```

By enabling the user to *create definitions* of rrdatabases, datasouces

and graphs that are *modular* and *reusable* for creating, updating and graphing

a wide variety of graphs,  easily and with peace of mind.

Along with a python API to call rrdtool features such as create, update, fetch

and graph that is easier and faster to use, with default and automatic cli options

generation.

It should be easy to provide the graphing feature as a REST API that return

graph images binaries (see [rrdli](https://github.com/damiencorpataux/rrdli)).

Because writing this library is also an in-depth learning of rrdtool,

the code should be commented nicely to *promote the understanding of what's happening*
