Description

This module is to add the newrelic agent's to your machine/application. What can this modulle setup.

  • os
  • node.js
  • php
  • java

Usage

I want to monitor the os.

For hiera

newrelic::os:
  'os':
    key: 'insert key'

I need to add labels.

newrelic::os:
  'os':
    key: 'insert key'
    labels:
      - 'os:linux'
      - 'environment:dev'

Labels can also be done as a string if there is only one.

newrelic::os:
  'os':
    key: 'insert key'
    labels: 'os:linux'

I need to monitor a java app.

newrelic::java:
  'java':
    key: 'insert key'
    app_root: '/tmp'
    version: '3.27.0'
    app_name: 'fred'

I am feed up repeating my key.

Then you are in luck. The global key variable will take car of that.

newrelic::global_key: 'insert key'

I need the new relic repo installed.

newrelic::repo_install: true

Parameters

global_key

This is used as the global key for the hash's. Saves having to type the key in for each hash.

repo_install

This will add the repo to allow the newrelic packages to be installed. Default value: false

ensure

This is used to install or remove the agent. Default is present.

key

This is the key for your newrelic account. If left blank then the agent will be setup but nothing will be sent to the newrelic web site.

version

Used to specify the version of java plugin you want. Defaults to undef. This will cause the module to fail.

app_root

This is the root of the application that is going to be monitored by Newrelic. Default is undef.

source

Source of the java agent. Default is http://yum.newrelic.com/newrelic/java-agent/.

type

The type of java agent. Default is agent.

app_name

This is used by node.js to identify the application. Default is undef.

Limitations

For the Redhat family, this has been tested on Centos. So we have a baisc assumption that this will work on Redhat.

Development

Just the standard, i.e. fork, make change add rspec/beaker tests and then push request. If you are not ofay with rspec and beaker then still make the push request and we will help you with that.
