Newrelic::Rake

NewRelic instrument for rake task.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'newrelic-rake'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install newrelic-rake

Usage

There is usually nothing to do for rake tasks in rails that depend on :environment, monitoring of these should just work.

Rake files need to require newrelic-rake and start the newrelic agent before executing tasks to monitor:

require 'newrelic-rake'
NewRelic::Agent.manual_start

These steps happen automatically in Rails' :environment task if you use Bundler.require in your application.rb.

Install exit handler

In general, newrelic gem will automatically install exit handler. But if you have sinatra gem in Gemfile.lock, you have to manually install exit handler

at_exit { NewRelic::Agent.shutdown  }
