     1  # Exporting cAdvisor Stats to statsd
     2  
     3  cAdvisor supports exporting stats to [statsd](https://github.com/etsy/statsd). To use statsd, you need to pass some additional flags to cAdvisor telling it where to find statsd:
     4  
     5  Set the storage driver as statsd.
     6  
     7  ```
     8   -storage_driver=statsd
     9  ```
    10  
    11  Specify what statsd instance to push data to:
    12  
    13  ```
    14   # The *ip:port* of the instance. Default is 'localhost:8086'
    15   -storage_driver_host=ip:port
    16  ```
    17  
    18  # Examples
    19  
    20  The easiest way to get up an running is to start the cadvisor binary with the `--storage_driver` and `--storage_driver_host` flags.
    21  
    22  ```
    23  cadvisor --storage_driver="statsd" --storage_driver_host="localhost:8125"
    24  ```
    25  
    26  The default port for statsd is 8125, so this wil start pumping metrics directly to it.
