Usage

var rrdtool = require('rrdtool');

var start = rrdtool.now() - 10;
var db = rrdtool.create('test.rrd', { start: start, step: 1 }, [
  'DS:test:GAUGE:1:0:100',
  'RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:10'
]);

db.update(start + 0, 15);
db.update(start + 1, 90);
db.update(start + 2, 35);
db.update(start + 3, 45);
db.update(start + 4, 85);
db.update(start + 5, 10);
db.update(start + 6, 60);
db.update(start + 7, 55);
db.update(start + 8, 75);
db.update(start + 9, 25);

db.fetch('AVERAGE', start, start + 9, function (err, data) {
