cordova-newrelic-sdk-plugin

cordova plugin for newrelic native SDK

a cordova plugin for providing direct access to native newrelic SDK APIs

Installation

cordova plugin add <path to this project>
eg: 
cordova plugin add ~/Documents/newrelic/cordova-newrelic-sdk-plugin/

Prerequisites

1. New Relic plugin for Cordova which is the official plugin from NewRelic. It does not work out of box and have no APIS that can called directly. So When I was doing the configuration for a Cordova App. I built this plugin so that we can call those APIs directly.

2. There is another way of logging HTTP requests inside a cordova/ionic app. which is add the JS configuration code to 'index.html' and check the results within 'browser' instead of mobile;

3. My advice is using both the browser & mobile solution together and use NewRelic analysts to combine them together by using 'setCustomAttributes';

Usages

if(window.NewRelicSDK) {
 // all params are String-typed to avoid conflicts between JS and ObjectiveC/JAVA
  window.NewRelicSDK.noticeNetworkRequestForIOS(
  					requestUrl,
  					method,
  					`${timeElapsedInMilliseconds}`,
  					JSON.stringify(response.headers),
  					`${response.status}`,
  					`${bytesSent}`,
  					`${bytesReceived}`,
  					JSON.stringify(response.data),
  					()=>{/* success callback */ },
  					(e)=>{/* error callback */ }
  				);
}else{
  $log.error("NewRelicSDK not available");
}
