node-newrelic examples

This directory contains examples of using the New Relic Node.js agent. You can run them by copying them into a new directory that contains a newrelic.js configuration file, like this:

$ mkdir node-newrelic-examples
$ cd node-newrelic-examples
$ npm i newrelic
$ cp node_modules/newrelic/newrelic.js .
$ # edit newrelic.js with your configuration details, like app name
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/newrelic/node-newrelic/main/examples/api/background-transactions/example1-basic.js
$ node example1-basic.js

Metrics generated by the examples will then show up in your New Relic One interface.
