I have been working on an implementation of a Ganglia 3 python module to gather ElasticSearch statistics and report them. I was thinking about committing this to my GitHub account, and was wondering if there was any interest in developing Ganglia module for cluster state monitoring.

As my ElasticSearch cluster grows to about 20 nodes, I needed something like this to get cluster wide statistics. I would love to see additional stats via the JSON interface such as Queries/Sec, or avg response time.

First, it of a great interest!. In master (upcoming 0.18) there are many  
more stats available now (indexing and search as well). Still more are  
missing, but its a good start.

My hope is that at the end, there will be metrics plugins that people can  
install that will automatically report each node and cluster wide indices  
stats to different systems, including ganaglia. But, a python module that  
does that goes a long way...

Once I code a PHP dashboard, should be more exciting. For now the statistics are being gathered.

Thanks!
