This is the official Node.js agent for Pinpoint.
If you have any feedback or questions, please post them on the Discuss issues.
Install with npm:
npm install --save pinpoint-node-agent Install with yarn:
yarn add pinpoint-node-agentTo run Pinpoint agent for your own applications, make sure you have the prerequisites in place first.
ES6
import 'pinpoint-node-agent'
CommonJS
require('pinpoint-node-agent')In Node with Webpack, if the Pinpoint Node agent cannot hook the HTTP module, it is the case that http.createServer is called first in the JS code compiled by webpack.
The'pinpoint-node-agent' require or import in the source code should be deleted.
$ node -r pinpoint-node-agent dist/entry.js
If you are using pm2, use node-args(CLI) or node_args(Ecosystem File).
module.exports = {
apps : [{
name: "app",
script: "./app.js",
'node_args': ['-r', 'pinpoint-node-agent']
}]
}
Based on the pinpoint-config-default.json file, only necessary parts are set as environment variables.
| name | default | description |
|---|---|---|
| PINPOINT_AGENT_ID | The maximum length is 24. a required variable. | |
| PINPOINT_APPLICATION_NAME | meaningful name of the app. an application name can have multiple PINPOINT_AGENT_ID. The maximum length is 24. a required variable. | |
| PINPOINT_COLLECTOR_IP | localhost | The address that the Pinpoint collector. ex) 192.168.0.1 |
| PINPOINT_SAMPLING_RATE | 10 | Sample rate of incoming HTTP or HTTPS request. The value is calculated as 1/value. |
| PINPOINT_LOG_LEVEL | WARN | Log level |
| PINPOINT_ENABLE | true | If you set it to false, the agent will not work. |
| PINPOINT_CONTAINER | false | Whether to use docker or kubernetes. If the PINPOINT_CONTAINER environment variable is not set, the agent analyzes the'/.dockerenv' and'/proc/self/cgroup' files to determine whether to use the Docker container. If the KUBERNETES_SERVICE_HOST environment variable exists, it is determined that it is the kubernetes environment and changes it to the true value. |
| PINPOINT_TRACE_EXCLUSION_URL_PATTERN | comma-separated string. ex) /health_check,/admin/** or Unit tests |
|
| PINPOINT_TRACE_EXCLUSION_URL_CACHE_SIZE | If the app is designed so that the pathname of the URL is fixed, if the cache size is set, the pathname of the frequently used URL does not match with patterns. In case of using query for pathname like /user/1000, cache is unnecessarily. Unit tests |
|
| PINPOINT_PROFILER_SQL_STAT | false | SQL uid |
| PINPOINT_TRACE_LOCATION_AND_FILENAME_OF_CALL_SITE | false | CallSite line number and filename |
The agent ID is used as the identifier per the server or node. You need to set the hostname or node identifier(The maximum length is 24) on the server.

- Express 4
- Koa(koa-router >=5.2.0 <8)
- HTTP, HTTPS

- mysql and mysql2
| Agent Version | Collector 1.x | Collector 2.x | Collector 3.x |
|---|---|---|---|
| above v0.8 | no | yes | yes |
If you use Performance tester for sampling rate, you can review while changing the sampling rate of the node agent of the Node application.
The Pinpoint Node agent does not support the following the JVM agent features. We plan to provide more detailed app information like the JVM agent.
- Active Request
- Some inspector information(Transactions Per Second, Active Request ...)
We are looking forward to your contributions via pull requests.
To contribute to Pinpoint Node JS agent, you should pass all test suites and your unit tests.
