This is a simple python script that periodically update metrics that we want to track on a dashboard page.
Make sure you have docker installed.
Build the container with sudo docker build -t py-metrics . .
Run the resulting container with sudo docker run --rm -e "GITHUB_TOKEN=Your_Token" py-metrics.
When running on the server, use sudo docker run --rm -e "GITHUB_TOKEN=Your_Token" --net="host" py-metrics so that the app has access to the statsd server.
