Dependencies

The simplest and quickest way to try M3 is to use Docker, read the M3 quickstart section for other options.

This example uses jq to format the output of API calls. It is not essential for using M3DB.

Usage

The below is a simplified version of the M3 quickstart guide, and we suggest you read that for more details.

Start a Container

docker run -p 7201:7201 -p 7203:7203 --name m3db -v $(pwd)/m3db_data:/var/lib/m3db quay.io/m3db/m3dbnode:v1.0.0

Create a Placement and Namespace

#!/bin/bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:7201/api/v1/database/create -d '{
  "type": "local",
  "namespaceName": "default",
  "retentionTime": "12h"
}' | jq .

Ready a Namespace

curl -X POST http://localhost:7201/api/v1/services/m3db/namespace/ready -d '{
  "name": "default"
}' | jq .

Write Metrics

#!/bin/bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:7201/api/v1/json/write -d '{
  "tags": 
    {
      "__name__": "third_avenue",
      "city": "new_york",
      "checkout": "1"
    },
    "timestamp": '\"$(date "+%s")\"',
    "value": 3347.26
}'

Query Results

Linux

curl -X "POST" -G "http://localhost:7201/api/v1/query_range" \
  -d "query=third_avenue" \
  -d "start=$(date "+%s" -d "45 seconds ago")" \
  -d "end=$( date +%s )" \
  -d "step=5s" | jq .

macOS/BSD

curl -X "POST" -G "http://localhost:7201/api/v1/query_range" \
  -d "query=third_avenue > 6000" \
  -d "start=$(date -v -45S "+%s")" \
  -d "end=$( date +%s )" \
  -d "step=5s" | jq .
