+# Stats Client Example
+
+This example demonstrates how to retrieve statistics from VPP using [the new Stats API](https://github.com/FDio/vpp/blob/master/src/vpp/stats/stats.md).
+
+## Requirements
+
+The following requirements are required to run this example:
+
+- install VPP **18.10+** (VPP 19.04+ for statsclient)
+- enable stats in VPP
+
+To enable stats add following section to you VPP config:
+
+ ```sh
+ statseg {
+ default
+ per-node-counters on
+ }
+ ```
+ > The [default socket](https://wiki.fd.io/view/VPP/Command-line_Arguments#.22statseg.22_parameters) is located at `/run/vpp/stats.sock`.
+
+## Running example
+
+First build the example: `go build git.fd.io/govpp.git/examples/stats-api`.
+
+### Higher-level access to stats
+
+Use commands following commands to retrieve stats that are aggregated and
+processed into logical structures from [api package](../../api).
+
+- `system` to retrieve system statistics
+- `nodes` to retrieve per node statistics
+- `interfaces` to retrieve per interface statistics
+- `errors` to retrieve error statistics (you can use patterns to filter the errors)
+
+#### System stats
+
+Following command will retrieve system stats.
+```
+$ ./stats-api system
+System stats: &{VectorRate:0 InputRate:0 LastUpdate:32560 LastStatsClear:0 Heartbeat:3255}
+```
+
+#### Node stats
+
+Following command will retrieve per node stats.
+```
+$ ./stats-api nodes
+Listing node stats..
+...
+ - {NodeIndex:554 Clocks:0 Vectors:0 Calls:0 Suspends:0}
+ - {NodeIndex:555 Clocks:189609 Vectors:15 Calls:15 Suspends:0}
+ - {NodeIndex:556 Clocks:2281847 Vectors:0 Calls:0 Suspends:21}

+ - {NodeIndex:558 Clocks:0 Vectors:0 Calls:0 Suspends:0}
+ - {NodeIndex:559 Clocks:7094 Vectors:0 Calls:1 Suspends:1}
+ - {NodeIndex:560 Clocks:88159323916601 Vectors:0 Calls:14066116 Suspends:0}
+ - {NodeIndex:561 Clocks:0 Vectors:0 Calls:0 Suspends:0}
+ - {NodeIndex:562 Clocks:0 Vectors:0 Calls:0 Suspends:0}
+ - {NodeIndex:563 Clocks:0 Vectors:0 Calls:0 Suspends:0}
+ - {NodeIndex:564 Clocks:447894125 Vectors:0 Calls:0 Suspends:32395}
+ - {NodeIndex:565 Clocks:1099655497824612 Vectors:0 Calls:40 Suspends:117}
+ - {NodeIndex:566 Clocks:0 Vectors:0 Calls:0 Suspends:0}
+ - {NodeIndex:567 Clocks:0 Vectors:0 Calls:0 Suspends:0}
+ - {NodeIndex:568 Clocks:0 Vectors:0 Calls:0 Suspends:0}
+ - {NodeIndex:569 Clocks:0 Vectors:0 Calls:0 Suspends:0}
+ - {NodeIndex:570 Clocks:0 Vectors:0 Calls:0 Suspends:0}
+ - {NodeIndex:571 Clocks:0 Vectors:0 Calls:0 Suspends:0}
+ - {NodeIndex:572 Clocks:0 Vectors:0 Calls:0 Suspends:0}
+Listed 573 node counters
+```
+
+#### Interface stats
+
+Following command will retrieve per interface stats.
+```
+$ ./stats-api interfaces
+Listing interface stats..
+ - {InterfaceIndex:0 RxPackets:0 RxBytes:0 RxErrors:0 TxPackets:0 TxBytes:0 TxErrors:0 RxUnicast:[0 0] RxMulticast:[0 0] RxBroadcast:[0 0] TxUnicastMiss:[0 0] TxMulticast:[0 0] TxBroadcast:[0 0] Drops:0 Punts:0 IP4:0 IP6:0 RxNoBuf:0 RxMiss:0}
+ - {InterfaceIndex:1 RxPackets:0 RxBytes:0 RxErrors:0 TxPackets:0 TxBytes:0 TxErrors:0 RxUnicast:[0 0] RxMulticast:[0 0] RxBroadcast:[0 0] TxUnicastMiss:[0 0] TxMulticast:[0 0] TxBroadcast:[0 0] Drops:5 Punts:0 IP4:0 IP6:0 RxNoBuf:0 RxMiss:0}
+ - {InterfaceIndex:2 RxPackets:0 RxBytes:0 RxErrors:0 TxPackets:0 TxBytes:0 TxErrors:0 RxUnicast:[0 0] RxMulticast:[0 0] RxBroadcast:[0 0] TxUnicastMiss:[0 0] TxMulticast:[0 0] TxBroadcast:[0 0] Drops:0 Punts:0 IP4:0 IP6:0 RxNoBuf:0 RxMiss:0}
+ - {InterfaceIndex:3 RxPackets:0 RxBytes:0 RxErrors:0 TxPackets:0 TxBytes:0 TxErrors:0 RxUnicast:[0 0] RxMulticast:[0 0] RxBroadcast:[0 0] TxUnicastMiss:[0 0] TxMulticast:[0 0] TxBroadcast:[0 0] Drops:0 Punts:0 IP4:0 IP6:0 RxNoBuf:0 RxMiss:0}
+Listed 4 interface counters
+```
+
+#### Error stats
+
+Following command will retrieve error stats.
+Use flag `-all` to include stats with zero values.
+```
+$ ./stats-api errors ip
+Listing error stats.. ip
+ - {ip4-input/ip4 spoofed local-address packet drops 15}
+Listed 1 (825) error counters
+```
+
+### Low-level access to stats
+
+Use commands `ls` and `dump` to list and dump statistics in their raw format
+from [adapter package](../../adapter).
+Optionally, patterns can be used to filter the results.
+
+#### List stats
+
+Following command will list stats matching patterns `/sys/` and `/if/`.
+```
+$ ./stats-api ls /sys/ /if/
+Listing stats.. /sys/ /if/
+ - /sys/vector_rate
+ - /sys/input_rate
+ - /sys/last_update
+ - /sys/last_stats_clear
+ - /sys/heartbeat
+ - /sys/node/clocks
+ - /sys/node/vectors
+ - /sys/node/calls
+ - /sys/node/suspends
+ - /if/drops
+ - /if/punt
+ - /if/ip4
+ - /if/ip6
+ - /if/rx-no-buf
+ - /if/rx-miss
+ - /if/rx-error
+ - /if/tx-error
+ - /if/rx
+ - /if/rx-unicast
+ - /if/rx-multicast
+ - /if/rx-broadcast
+ - /if/tx
+ - /if/tx-unicast-miss
+ - /if/tx-multicast
+ - /if/tx-broadcast
+Listed 25 stats
+```
+
+#### Dump stats
+
+Following command will dump stats with their types and actual values.
+Use flag `-all` to include stats with zero values.
+```
+$ ./stats-api dump
+Dumping stats..
+ - /sys/last_update ScalarIndex 10408
+ - /sys/heartbeat ScalarIndex 1041
+ - /err/ip4-icmp-error/unknown type ErrorIndex 5
+ - /net/route/to CombinedCounterVector [[{Packets:0 Bytes:0} {Packets:0 Bytes:0} {Packets:0 Bytes:0} {Packets:0 Bytes:0} {Packets:0 Bytes:0} {Packets:0 Bytes:0} {Packets:0 Bytes:0} {Packets:0 Bytes:0} {Packets:0 Bytes:0} {Packets:0 Bytes:0} {Packets:0 Bytes:0} {Packets:0 Bytes:0} {Packets:0 Bytes:0} {Packets:5 Bytes:420}]]
