Module: NewRelic::Agent::Instrumentation::Rack
- Includes:
- ControllerInstrumentation
- Defined in:
- lib/new_relic/agent/instrumentation/rack.rb
Overview
Instrumentation for Rack
New Relic will instrument a #call method as if it were a controller action, collecting transaction traces and errors. The middleware will be identified only by it’s class, so if you want to instrument multiple actions in a middleware, you need to use NewRelic::Agent::Instrumentation::ControllerInstrumentation::ClassMethods#add_transaction_tracer
Example:
require 'new_relic/agent/instrumentation/rack'
class Middleware
def call(env)
...
end
# Do the include after the call method is defined:
include NewRelic::Agent::Instrumentation::Rack
end
Instrumenting Metal
If you are using Metal, be sure and extend the your Metal class with the Rack instrumentation:
require 'new_relic/agent/instrumentation/rack'
class MetalApp
def self.call(env)
...
end
# Do the include after the call method is defined:
extend NewRelic::Agent::Instrumentation::Rack
end
Overriding the metric name
By default the middleware is identified only by its class, but if you want to be more specific and pass in name, then omit including the Rack instrumentation and instead follow this example:
require 'new_relic/agent/instrumentation/controller_instrumentation'
class Middleware
include NewRelic::Agent::Instrumentation::ControllerInstrumentation
def call(env)
...
end
add_transaction_tracer :call, :category => :rack, :name => 'my app'
end
Cascading or chained calls
You should avoid instrumenting nested calls. So if you are using Rack::Cascade to fall through the action, or you are chaining through to the next middleware which will have it’s own controller instrumentation, then you will want to instrument only when you are the endpoint.
In these cases, you should not include or extend the Rack module but instead include NewRelic::Agent::Instrumentation::ControllerInstrumentation. Here’s how that might look:
require 'new_relic/agent/instrumentation/controller_instrumentation'
class MetalApp
extend NewRelic::Agent::Instrumentation::ControllerInstrumentation
def self.call(env)
if should_do_my_thing?
perform_action_with_newrelic_trace(:category => :rack) do
return my_response(env)
end
else
return [404, {"Content-Type" => "text/html"}, ["Not Found"]]
end
end
end
