hapi-new-relic-transaction-patch v1.0.0

hapi-new-relic-transaction-patch

Note

NewRelic fixed the issue in node-newrelic v1.25.5. This patch is no longer relevant.

This Hapi plugin fixes a bug in node-newrelic that incorrectly reports transactions with URLs of /*. This bug occurs when a request extension (onPostAuth, onPreresponse, etc.) calls request.reply() within a promise chain, and concurrent requests are begin handled by the server.

There is an example application that reproduces this bug here: https://github.com/mgartner/newrelic-hapi-url-bug

This plugin works by calling NewRelic.setTransactionName() in a onPostAuth hook. The name is formatted to show correctly in New Relic's Dashboard with the HTTP method and route path.

Installation

npm i hapi-new-relic-transaction-patch

Registering the Plugin

const Hapi = require('hapi');

let server = Hapi.Server();

  require('hapi-new-relic-transaction-patch')
], () => {
  console.log('error:', err);
});
