Notes
Custom instrumentation
The agent now allows you to annotate your application code to provide customized instrumentation. This includes the ability to time both web and background transactions, and add tracers to measure activity within transactions like querying a database. For more information, see custom instrumentation

Fixes
- Fixed a bug in the express instrumentation where if you named an error handler function
handle
it would cause a recursion depth error.

Added a check for invalid characters in the
app_name
setting.The agent will now emit a warning and disable itself if any application name is invalid. Allowed characters are alphanumerics and certain punctuation characters ({}.?!')
Router queue time now properly handles floating point values.
Fixed a bug where a socket connection could throw a synchronous error and cause the application to crash.

We now support Cassandra via the
node-cassandra-cql
driver.New database instrumentation means that we can present you with the timing data for how long those queries take. Thanks to Aaron Silvas from GoDaddy for the initial implementation of the Cassandra instrumentation.
Router queue time now supports
t=<number>
in the X-REQUEST-START and X-QUEUE-START headers.

Notes
- Agent now tracks metrics for router queue time. In addition to X-REQUEST-START, the agent now supports X-QUEUE-START header times. This metric will show up as "Request Queueing" in the Overview tab.

Notes
Plain
http
routes (i.e. routes outside of a framework) now apply config naming rules early. See rules for naming and ignoring requests.This fixes a bug where generating the Browser Timing Header would not work without a framework (i.e. express, restify, hapi).
Beta support for connecting to newrelic via ssl through a proxy.

Notes
The agent now reports the value of the
NODE_ENV
environment variable to New Relic.This will show up in your Settings -> Environment tab in APM. The data is being collected for debugging and to aid support.

Notes
Captured parameters for express, restify, and hapi have been normalized.
When
capture_params
is enabled the agent will collect route and query parameters. Previously express and restify only captured route params, and hapi only captured query params. This normalizes the behavior across the frameworks.Fixed an issue with restify instrumentation that caused the agent to always collect route parameters.
Users of restify who want to continue capturing route (and now query) parameters are advised to enable
capture_params
.Fixed an issue where circular configs caused the agent to crash.
