standalone graphite metric name search (for usage with custom storage backends)

git clone git@github.com:viert/metricsearch.git
cd metricsearch
export GOPATH=`pwd`
go get github.com/viert/properties
go get github.com/op/go-logging
go build src/metricsearch.go

metricsearch 
  -c="/etc/metricsearch.conf": metricsearch config filename
  -reindex="": reindex from plain text metrics file

metrics file is a text file with metric names separated by "\n"

metricsearch listens at port 7000 by default and has the following http handlers:

/add?name=<metricname> adds metric metricname to index, automatically syncing it to disk in background.

/search?query=<searchquery> searches for metrics. Metric names are returned line by line, partials (for graphite /metrics/find) are flagged by the following ".". For exapmle:

curl "http://localhost:7000/search?query=addressbook.*"
addressbook.host1.
addressbook.host2.
addressbook.total_rps

This means host1 and host2 are graphite directories, whereas total_rps is a complete leaf with timeseries.
