Datadog Cookbook

Chef recipes to deploy Datadog's components and configuration automatically.

This cookbook includes new support for Datadog Agent version 6.0, please refer to
the dedicated section and the inline docs
for more details on the supported platforms and how to use it.

Log collection is now available with agent 6.0, please refer to the inline docs to enable it.

NB: This README may refer to features that are not released yet. Please check the README of the
git tag/the gem version you're using for your version's documentation

Requirements

  • chef >= 10.14

Platforms

  • Amazon Linux
  • CentOS
  • Debian
  • RedHat
  • Scientific Linux
  • Ubuntu
  • Windows (requires chef >= 12.0)

Cookbooks

The following Opscode cookbooks are dependencies:

  • apt
  • chef_handler
  • windows
  • yum

Note for Chef 11 users: please use these additional dependency version contraints for compatibility with Chef 11:

cookbook 'apt', '< 4.0'
cookbook 'chef_handler', '< 2.0'
cookbook 'windows', '< 2.0'
cookbook 'yum', '~> 3.0'

(in Berkshelf/Librarian format)

Recipes

default

Just a placeholder for now, when we have more shared components they will probably live there.

dd-agent

Installs the Datadog agent on the target system, sets the API key, and start the service to report on the local system metrics

Notes for Windows:

  • With Chef >= 12.6 and the windows cookbook >= 1.39.0, Agent upgrades are known to fail. For Chef>=12.6 users on Windows, we recommend pinning the windows cookbook to a lower version (~> 1.38.0 for instance).

If that's not an option, a known workaround is to use the remove-dd-agent recipe (since the 2.5.0 version of the present cookbook) to uninstall the Agent
prior to any Agent upgrade.

  • Because of changes in the Windows Agent packaging and install in version 5.12.0, when upgrading the Agent from versions <= 5.10.1 to versions >= 5.12.0, please set the windows_agent_use_exe attribute to true.

Once the upgrade is complete, you can leave the attribute to its default value (false).

For more information on these Windows packaging changes, see the related docs on the dd-agent wiki.

dd-handler

Installs the chef-handler-datadog gem and invokes the handler at the end of a Chef run to report the details back to the newsfeed.

dogstatsd-(python|ruby)

Installs the language-specific libraries to interact with dogstatsd.

ddtrace-(python|ruby)

Installs the language-specific libraries for application Traces (APM).

other

There are many other integration-specific recipes, that are meant to assist in deploying the correct agent configuration files and dependencies for a given integration.

Usage

Agent 6 Support

Please note the cookbook now supports installing both Agent v5 and Agent v6 of the Datadog Agent on Linux (since v2.14.0) and Windows (since v2.15.0). By default versions <=2.x of the cookbook will default to install Agent5, you may however override this behavior with the node['datadog']['agent6'] attribute.

default_attributes(
'datadog' => {
'agent6' => true
}
)

Note: to upgrade to Agent 6 on a node with Agent 5 already installed, you also have to pin agent6_version to a v6 version (recommended), or set agent6_package_action to 'upgrade'.

Additional attributes are available to have finer control over how you install Agent 6. These are Agent 6 counterparts to several well known Agent 5 attributes (code here):
* agent6_version: allows you to pin the agent version (recommended).
* agent6_package_action: defaults to 'install', may be set to 'upgrade' to automatically upgrade to latest (not recommended, we recommend pinning to a version with agent6_version and change that version to upgrade).
* agent6_aptrepo: desired APT repo for the agent. Defaults to http://apt.datadoghq.com
* agent6_aptrepo_dist: desired distribution for the APT repo. Defaults to stable
* agent6_yumrepo: desired YUM repo for the agent. Defaults to https://yum.datadoghq.com/stable/6/x86_64/

Please review the attributes/default.rb file (at the version of the cookbook you use) for the list and usage of the attributes used by the cookbook.

Should you wish to add additional elements to the agent6 configuration file (typically /etc/datadog-agent/datadog.yaml) that are not directly available as attributes of the cookbook, you may use the node['datadog']['extra_config'] attribute. This attribute is a hash and will be marshaled into the configuration file accordingly.

For general information on the Datadog Agent 6, please refer to the datadog-agent repo.

Instructions

  1. Add this cookbook to your Chef Server, either by installing with knife or by adding it to your Berksfile: cookbook 'datadog', '~> 2.14.0'
  2. Add your API Key either:
    • as a node attribute via an environment or role, or
    • as a node attribute by declaring it in another cookbook at a higher precedence level, or
    • in the node run_state by setting node.run_state['datadog']['api_key'] in another cookbook preceding datadog's recipes in the run_list. This approach has the benefit of not storing the credential in clear text on the Chef Server.
  3. Create an 'application key' for chef_handler here, and add it as a node attribute or in the run state, as in Step #2.

NB: if you're using the run state to store the api and app keys you need to set them at compile time before datadog::dd-handler in the run list.

  1. Associate the recipes with the desired roles, i.e. "role:chef-client" should contain "datadog::dd-handler" and a "role:base" should start the agent with "datadog::dd-agent". Here's an example role with both recipes: ``` name 'example' description 'Example role using DataDog'

default_attributes(
'datadog' => {
'api_key' => 'api_key',
'application_key' => 'app_key'
}
)

run_list %w(
recipe[datadog::dd-agent]
recipe[datadog::dd-handler]
)
``
NB: remember to setagent6attribute in thedatadog` hash if you'd like to install agent6.

  1. Wait until chef-client runs on the target node (or trigger chef-client manually if you're impatient)

We are not making use of data_bags in this recipe at this time, as it is unlikely that you will have more than one API key and one application key.

For more deployment details, visit the Datadog Documentation site.

AWS OpsWorks Chef Deployment

  1. Add Chef Custom JSON:
    json
    {"datadog":{"api_key": "<API_KEY>", "application_key": "<APP_KEY>"}}

  2. Include the recipe in install-lifecycle recipe:
    ruby
    include_recipe 'datadog::dd-agent'

2.4.0 / 2016-05-04

2.3.0 / 2016-04-25

NOTE This has been broken for some time, and has had multiple attempts at fixing properly. The correct interface
has never been documented, and the implementation has always been left up to the reader. We have changed this to be
much simpler - instead of trying to account for any possible methods

  • [BUGFIX] Correct cassandra template render flags, @miketheman
  • [DOCS] Remove suggestion for python cookbook, as it is no longer needed. @miketheman
  • [MISC] Updates to test suite for simplicity, deprecation warnings, dependencies @miketheman & @darron

2.0.0 / 2014-08-22

  • BREAKING CHANGE: Datadog Agent 5.0.0 Release Edition

With the release of Datadog Agent 5.x, all Python dependencies are now bundled, and extensions for monitoring are no
longer needed. Integration-specific recipes no longer install any packages, so if you are using a version older than
5.x, you may have to install these yourself. This greatly simplifies deployment of all components for monitoring.
See commit b77582122f3db774a838f90907b421e544dd099c for the exact package resources that have been removed.
Affected recipes:

  • hdfs
  • memcache
  • mongodb
  • mysql
  • postgres

  • redisdb

    • BREAKING CHANGE: Removed chef_gem support for Chef versions pre 0.10.9.

We haven't supported this version of Chef in some time, so it's unlikely that you will be affected at all.
Just in case, please review what versions of Chef you have installed, and use an older version of this cookbook until
you can upgrade them.

  • [OPTIMIZE] Update repository recipe to choose correct arch, @remh
  • [OPTIMIZE] Remove conditional python dep for Ubuntu 11.04, @miketheman
  • [OPTIMIZE] Remove extra apt-get call during Agent recipe run, @miketheman
  • [FEATURE] Add kafka monitoring recipe & tests, #113 @qqfr2507
  • [FEATURE] Allow database name to be passed into postgres template, @miketheman
  • [MISC] Many updates to testing suite. Faster style, better specs. @miketheman

1.2.0 / 2014-03-24

1.1.1 / 2013-10-17

  • [FEATURE] added rabbitmq recipe and template, @miketheman
  • [BUGFIX] memcache dependencies and template, #67 @elijahandrews
  • [BUGFIX] redis python client check was not properly checking the default version, @remh
  • [MISC] tailor 1.3.1 caught some cosmetic issue, @alq

1.1.0 / 2013-08-20

Dependency Note

One of the dependencies of this cookbook is the apt cookbook.
A change introduced in the apt cookbook 2.0.0 release was a Chef 11-specific feature that would break on any Chef 10 system, so we considered adding a restriction in our metadata.rb to anything below 2.0.0.

A fix has gone in to apt 2.1.0 that relaxes this condition, and plays well with both Chef 10 and 11. We recommend using this version, or higher.

1.0.1 / 2013-05-14

  • Fixed iis and rabbitmq template syntax - #58 @gregf
  • Updated style/spacing in ActiveMQ template
  • Updated test suite to validate cookbook & templates
  • Updated chefignore to clean the built cookbook from containing cruft

1.0.0 / 2013-05-06

  • BREAKING CHANGE: Moved all attributes into datadog namespace - #46 (#23, #26)

Reasoning behind this was that originally we attempted to auto-detect many common attributes and deploy automatic monitoring for them.
We found that since inclusion of the datadog cookbook early in the run list caused the compile phase to be populated with our defaults (mostly nil), instead of the desired target, and namespacing of the attributes became necessary.

  • NEW PROVIDER: Added a new datadog_monitor provider for integration use

The new provider is used in many pre-provided integration recipes, such as datadog::apache.
This enables a run list to include this recipe, as well as populate a node attribute with the needed instance details to monitor the given service

  • Updated dependencies in Gemfile, simplifies travis build - #34, #55
  • Much improved test system (chefspec, test-kitchen) - #35 & others
  • Tests against multiple versions of Chef - #18
  • Added language-specific recipes for installing dogstatsd - (#28)
  • Added ability to control dogstatsd from agent config via attribute - #27
  • Placed the dogstatsd log file in /var/log/ instead of /tmp
  • Added attribute to configure dogstreams in datadog.conf - #37
  • Updated for platform_family semantics
  • Added node['datadog']['agent_version'] attribute
  • (Handler Recipe) Better handling of EC2 instance ID for Handler - #44
  • Updated for agent 3.6.x logging syntax
  • Generated config file removes some whitespace - #56
  • Removed dependency on yum::epel, only uses yum for the repository recipe

0.1.4 / 2013-04-25

  • Quick fix for backporting test code to support upload in ruby 1.8.7

0.1.3 / 2013-01-27

  • Work-around for COOK-2171

0.1.2 / 2012-10-15

  • Fixed typo in jmx section

0.1.1 / 2012-09-18

  • Added support for postgres, redis & memcached
  • dd-agent - updated to include more platforms
  • dd-handler - updated to leverage chef_gem resource if available
  • Updated copyright for 2012
  • Updated syntax for node attribute accessors
  • Some syntax styling fixes
  • Added agent logging configuration
  • Removed extraneous dependencies
  • Added automated testing suite
