NAME

       Munin::Node::ProxySpooler - Daemon to gather spool information by querying a munin-node instance.

SYNOPSIS

         Munin::Node::ProxySpooler->run(spooldir => '/var/spool/munin');
         # never returns.

         # meanwhile, in another process
         my $spoolreader = Munin::Node::Spoolreader->new(
             spooldir => '/var/spool/munin',
         );
         print $spoolreader->fetch(123456789);

METHODS

       new
             Munin::Node::ProxySpooler->new(%args);

           Constructor.  It is called automatically by the "run" method, so probably isn't of much use
           otherwise.

       run
             Munin::Node::ProxySpooler->run(%args);

           Daemonises the current process, and starts fetching data from a Munin node.

           Never returns.  The process will clean up and exit(0) upon receipt of SIGINT, SIGTERM or SIGHUP.

           "spooldir"
                   The directory to write results to.  Optional.

           "host", "port"
                   The host and port the spooler will gather results from.  Defaults to "localhost" and 4949
                   respectively, which should be acceptable for most purposes.

           "pid_file"
                   The pidfile to use.  Required.
