New Relic transaction tracing instrumentation for Next.js

Installation

  1. Starting from the root directory of your Next.js application, the directory where your package.json file resides
  2. Install and configure the New Relic Node Agent
    • NOTE: ignore the Add require('newrelic'); as the first line of your app's main module. step, we'll cover that later.
  3. Install the New Relic Next.js instrumentation package
    • npm install git+https://github.com/newrelic-experimental/node-newrelic-nextjs.git for HTTP, or
    • npm install git+ssh://git@github.com:newrelic-experimental/node-newrelic-nextjs.git for SSH
  4. Now we install both the New Relic Node Agent and the Next.js instrumentation into Next.js which is the actual Node application by adding this line
    require('newrelic'); require('@newrelic-experimental/nextjs');
    
    to node_modules/next/dist/bin/next inserted as line 2
  5. Run your application as usual.
