NAME:

Apache::TS::AdminClient - a perl interface to the statistics and configuration settings stored within Apache Traffic Server.

SYNOPSIS

  #!/usr/bin/perl
  use Apache::TS::AdminClient;

  my $cli = Apache::TS::AdminClient->new(%input);
  my $string = $cli->get_stat("proxy.config.product_company");
  print "$string\n";

DESCRIPTION:

AdminClient opens a TCP connection to a unix domain socket on local disk. When the connection is established, AdminClient will write requests to the socket and wait for Apache Traffic Server to return a response. Valid request strings can be found in RecordsConfig.cc which is included with Apache Traffic Server source. A list of valid request strings are included with this documentation, but this included list may not be complete as future releases of Apache Traffic Server may include new request strings or remove existing ones.

CONSTRUCTOR

When the object is created for this module, it assumes the 'Unix Domain Socket' is at the default location from the Apache Traffic Server installation. This can be changed when creating the object by setting 'socket_path'. For example:

my $cli = AdminClient->new(socket_path=> "/var/trafficserver");: This would make the module look for the 'Unix Domain Socket' in the directory '/var/trafficserver'. The path can optionally include the name of the Socket file, without it the constructor defaults to 'mgmtapi.sock'.

PUBLIC METHODS

To read a single metric (or configuration), two APIs are available:

$cli->get_stat($stats_name);
$cli->get_config($config_name);: This will return a (scalar) value for this metric or configuration.

traffic_ctl

There is a command line tool included with Apache Traffic Server called traffic_ctl which overlaps with this module. traffic_ctl can be used to read and write statistics or config settings that this module can. Hence if you don't want to write a perl one-liner to get to this information, traffic_ctl is your tool.

List of configurations

The Apache Traffic Server Administration Manual will explain what these strings represent. (https://docs.trafficserver.apache.org/en/latest/)
