We don't have debug logging in dogstatsd as it can potentially receive a huge amount of data and logging the incoming udp packets will kill cpu/disk. Sometimes we need to see that data though when trying to debug dogstatsd submission, so here is a hacky way to do it.

To apply it:

cd /
curl https://gist.githubusercontent.com/remh/deed8245ba74784f51de/raw/de858c35e3e1bcfeca167a18483fffde79045ee1/dogstatsd_debug.py.patch | sudo patch -p 0
sudo service datadog-agent restart

Check the dogstatsd log (in /var/log/datadog/dogstatsd.log )

To undo it:

cd /
curl https://gist.githubusercontent.com/remh/deed8245ba74784f51de/raw/de858c35e3e1bcfeca167a18483fffde79045ee1/dogstatsd_debug.py.patch | sudo patch -p 0 -R
