Connect to a database using a STATSD_URL.

It uses Statsd under the hood:

import "github.com/josegonzalez/go-statsdurl"

// Connect using os.Getenv("STATSD_URL").
c, err := statsdurl.Connect()

// Alternatively, connect using a custom Database URL.
c, err := statsdurl.ConnectToURL("udp://...")

In both cases you will get the result values of calling statsd.NewStatsdClient(...), that is, an instance of statsd.StatsdClient and an error.

Install it using the "go get" command:

go get github.com/josegonzalez/go-statsdurl
