Article summary

Prerequisites:
  • Supported Node.js Technologies
    Since Prefix and Retrace share the same modules/profiler, the supported frameworks between the two products will be the same in most cases.

1. Download and install the Prefix installation file:

Check out the Getting Started Prefix page to download and install Prefix on your workstation.

2. Get the latest Stackify Node.js Profiler for Prefix:

npm install stackify-node-apm --save

3. Configure the Application to use the Profiler with Prefix Enabled:

  • Copy node_modules/stackify-node-apm/stackify.js into your application's root directory and modify Application Name and Environment Name.
  • Add prefix_enabled: trueto the stackify.js file.
/**
 * Stackify Node APM Configuration
 */
exports.config = {
  /**
   * Your application name.
   */
  application_name: 'Node Application',
  /**
   * Your environment name.
   */
  environment_name: 'Production',
  /**
   * Enable Prefix.
   */
   prefix_enabled: true
}

4. Initialize the Profiler:

  • Add require('stackify-node-apm') to the top of your application's main module.

5. Verify application requests show up in Prefix
