The graphite Docker image provides both pieces of software.
Quick test on Dwellers:
Dwellers
$ docker run -d \ --name graphite \ --restart=always \ -p 37180:80 \ -p 2003-2004:2003-2004 \ -p 2023-2024:2023-2024 \ -p 8125:8125/udp \ -p 8126:8126 \ graphiteapp/graphite-statsd $ docker stats graphite CONTAINER ID NAME CPU % MEM USAGE / LIMIT MEM % NET I/O BLOCK I/O PIDS bf6c90268958 graphite 0.77% 215.4MiB / 31.1GiB 0.68% 242kB / 1.59MB 0B / 1.18GB 59
The deployment is clearly "let's use the container as a VM" with runit and 11 services:

Not sure it's worthwile to spend time to split into different containers and services à la Sentry. Project ships a docker-compose with only that only image at https://github.com/graphite-project/docker-graphite-statsd/blob/master/docker-compose.yml.
To keep data, we need to check the volume configuration. So this instance is currently test only.
Most ports will can be bound to local IP.e
Port 37180 for Web UI has been chosen as this instance is devised for Notifications Center: as a PHP application, it can't easily maintain state, and so Prometheus-style format for metrics isn't the most convenient way. So StatsD.
To send a counter, send the metric to UDP port 8125:
echo "quux_reported:1|c" | nc -u -w0 172.27.27.4 8125
It seems the increment is of 0.1 instead of 1.
Grafana can easily show those metrics in explorer, ask graphite-dwellers at https://grafana.nasqueron.org/explore

With a transformation, we can multiply the field by 10 to solve that issue: https://grafana.nasqueron.org/d/fdsy3oogbchs0f/graphite-quux-sandbox?orgId=1&tab=transform&from=1722018733917&to=1722022333917
