README
New Relic's PHP agent has support for automatic transaction naming for REST and SOAP, but not GraphQL. Thus, this Magento 2 module is developed to support sending a GraphQL transaction name to New Relic automatically.
Details
A transaction is named based on the service class and method that handled the request, /GraphQl/Controller/GraphQl\{operation name|(query|mutation)}\{name|Multiple}.
The logic is explained as follows:
- If the
operationNamefield is set, use the operation name. - If the
operationNamefield is not set, use the name of the query or mutation. - If a GraphQL query consists of multiple queries or mutations, the transaction would be indicated as 'Multiple'. Note that in any cases, the
operationNamefield takes the priority.
Installation
composer require jomashop/module-new-relic-monitoring-for-gql
Examples
- Operation name is set
mutation createCustomerTest{ createCustomer( input: { firstname: "Bob" lastname: "Loblaw" email: "test@example.com" password: "b0bl0bl@w" is_subscribed: true } ) { customer { firstname lastname email is_subscribed } } }
In New Relic, the transaction name would be: /GraphQl/Controller/GraphQl/Mutation/createCustomerTest
- Operation name is not set and only 1 query/mutation is requested
mutation { createCustomer( input: { firstname: "Bob" lastname: "Loblaw" email: "test@example.com" password: "b0bl0bl@w" is_subscribed: true } ) { customer { firstname lastname email is_subscribed } } }
In NR, the transaction name would be /GraphQl/Controller/GraphQl/Mutation/createCustomer
- Operation name is not set and multiple queries/mutations are requested
query { cmsBlocks(identifiers: "footer_links_block") { items { identifier title content } }, storeConfig { id code website_id locale base_currency_code default_display_currency_code timezone weight_unit base_url base_link_url base_static_url base_media_url secure_base_url secure_base_link_url secure_base_static_url secure_base_media_url store_name } }
In NR, the transaction name would be /GraphQl/Controller/GraphQl/Query/Multiple
Other features
This module also supports using newrelic_add_custom_parameter instead of newrelic_notice_error.
- See ErrorHandler and ReportErrorEvaluatorInterface
- This can be used to reduce the number of
GraphQlInputException/GraphQlAuthorizationException/GraphQlAuthenticationExceptionwhich are logged as errors - Data is set to ExceptionIsSkipReportError / ExceptionClass / ExceptionMessage
Error extraction:
- If the error is an
AggregateExceptionInterfacethe module tries to use the inner error. - If the error is a
LocalizedExceptionthen ExceptionRawMessage is set as a custom parameter
If the header x-client-version is set then ClientVersion is set as a custom parameter
- This can be used to track the Frontend Version sending the GQL request
Core Magento logging from 2.4.4 is disabled as running both is does not provide extra value
If Magento >= 2.4.7 is used the extracted data changes
- The AST is parsed to extract various data
- <2.4.7 parses the string
