Hi,
Has anyone tried using the node.js agent to see if it will work with detecting the Next.js framework?
Next.js is an open-source web development framework built on top of Node.js, so don't know if it will at least partially work.🐵
Hi @Michael.Lee,
I see you created a support ticket for this question. Can you share your learnings with @Kiryl.Kaliada?
Hi. Any update on that?
Hi @Kiryl.Kaliada,
Here is what was shared via Support
Yes, Next.js application can be instrumented with Node.js Agent, but only if the runtime is Node.js, meaning application having node.js backend. Single page applications or frontend applications not running on Node.js cannot be instrumented with Node.js agent.
Next steps:
Steps to instrument:
Using below steps appdynamics will be installed outside application folder.
mkdir /opt/appdynamics
npm init -y
npm install appdynamics@latest
require("appdynamics").profile({
debug: true,
controllerHostName: '<controller-host-name>',
controllerPort: 443,
controllerSslEnabled: true, // Set to true if controllerPort is SSL
accountName: 'xyz',
accountAccessKey: 'xyz', //required
applicationName: '323460-axios-nextjs',
tierName: 't1',
nodeName: 'n1',
logging: {
'logfiles': [
{
'root_directory': '/tmp/appd',
'filename': 'echo_%N.log',
'level': 'TRACE',
'max_size': 5242880,
'max_files': 10
}
]
}
});
export NODE_OPTIONS '--require "/opt/appdynamics/shim.js"'
Start the server and the agent will be pre-loaded with the help of env var NODE_OPTIONS
Hope that helps
Hi @Michael.Lee,
I didn't see any mention of this within the Community. I did some find Support tickets on this topic. I would recommend reaching out to your AppD rep to see what they can find out.
