New Relic MySQL instrumentation

New Relic's offical MySQL instrumentation for use with the New Relic Node.js agent.

Installation and Getting Started

This module is a dependency of the agent and is installed with it by running:

npm install newrelic

Alternatively, it can be installed and loaded independently based on specific versioning needs:

npm install @newrelic/mysql

// index.js
require('@newrelic/mysql')

Supported modules

• mysql
• mysql2

For more information, please see the agent installation guide and the agent compatibility and requirements.

Our API and developer documentation for writing instrumentation will be of help. We particularly recommend the tutorials and various "shim" API documentation.

Testing

The module includes a suite of functional tests which should be used to verify that your changes don't break existing functionality.

These tests rely on a Docker container being setup via scripts in the Node.js agent. This container can be setup by running npm run services in the main agent repo.

All tests are stored in tests/ and are written using Tap with the extension .tap.js.

To run the full suite, run: npm test.
