Source Code Context Demo

This demo is meant to provide a proof of concept as well as example data for the experimental source code context for the New Relic Python Agent.

Usage (Docker)

Requirements

• Docker
• docker-compose (shipped with Docker desktop for Mac)
• GNU Make (Optional, for scripting shortcuts)
• New Relic license key set in environment variable (export NEW_RELIC_LICENSE_KEY=mylicensekey)
• Port 8000 available (port can also be changed in compose file, eg. 127.0.0.1:9999:8000 for port 9999)

Instructions

1. Build and start the application with make up or docker-compose up -d --build.
2. View logs for various components in the generated logs/ directory.
3. Stop the application make down or docker-compose down.

Development (Local)

Requirements

• Python
• Python virtual_env package (if on Python 2)
• New Relic license key set in environment variable (export NEW_RELIC_LICENSE_KEY=mylicensekey)
• Port 8000 available (port can also be changed in compose file, eg. 127.0.0.1:9999:8000 for port 9999)

Instructions

1. Create a virtual environment with python -m virtualenv .venv.
2. Activate the new virtual environment with source .venv/bin/activate (for bash).
3. Install requirments with pip install -r requirements.txt.
4. Navigate to src/ with cd src.
5. Start the application with newrelic-admin run-program gunicorn main:app -w 3 -t 120.
6. Optionally start the traffic driver from another terminal with cd src and locust --headless --users 5 --spawn-rate 1 -f locustfile.py
7. View logs in the src/logs/ directory.
8. Stop the application with Ctrl-C.
