public MetricBatcher(String subKey,
             int minimumBatchSize)

minimumBatchSize - Size of batches. If the number is less than 1, then 1 is used.

Method Detail

decode

protected void decode(io.netty.channel.ChannelHandlerContext ctx,
          SingleMetric msg,
          List<Object> out)
               throws Exception

Batch up incoming SingleMetric messages. If the #minimumBatchSize is not yet reached, the messages are stored locally. Otherwise the list of messages will be forwarded to the next handler. This method will be called for each written message that can be handled by this encoder.

Specified by:

decode in class io.netty.handler.codec.MessageToMessageDecoder<SingleMetric>

Parameters:

ctx - the ChannelHandlerContext which this MessageToMessageDecoder belongs to

msg - the SingleMetric to be batched up

out - the List to which decoded messages should be added if the batch size is reached

Throws:

Exception - is thrown if an error occurs
