Passing Graphite Events

[justdaver]

Hey Luke,

Would it be possible to integrate the Graphite events system into statsd? Events are a pretty useful method for overlaying additional info over graphs in graphite such as log file extracts...etc as they happen.

At the moment we're posting events to graphite using curl method below:

curl -X POST http://graphite/events/ -d '{"what": "Something Interesting", "tags" : "tag1 "}')

It would be awesome if we could push these kinds of events to the statsd collector and then the collector passes it back to graphite.

Thanks!
Dave
