Run Heapster with a Riemann back end

Riemann is an event processing engine which allows sophisticated transformation, analysis, and routing of events. Configuration is provided using Clojure. When Heapster is configured with a Riemann sink, it will stream Riemann-format events to a separate Riemann instance.

The following sink options are supported as URL parameters:

host: default "riemann-heapster:5555"
    The host-port connection string for the Riemann instance.
ttl:  default 60.0
    The default TTL (in seconds) assigned to Riemann events
state: default nil
    The default state (string) assigned to Riemann events
tags: default []
    An array of strings that should be associated with each Riemann event
storeEvents: default true
    Whether Kubernetes events should be forwarded to Riemann

See the sample config for configuration pointers.
