License

See [LICENSE](LICENSE)

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP 5.6 or newer
- [Composer](http://getcomposer.org)
- [Slim](https://www.slimframework.com/) 3.7 or newer

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Installation

[](#installation)

Run the following command to install the package through Composer:

```
composer require herloct/slim-newrelic
```

### Bootstrapping

[](#bootstrapping)

Example `index.php`.

```
$config = [
    'settings' => [
        'displayErrorDetails' => true,

        // These two are needed so new relic agent could work
        'addContentLengthHeader' => false,
        'determineRouteBeforeAppMiddleware' => true
    ],

    'errorHandler' => function ($c) {
        $agent = $c->get(\SobanVuex\NewRelic\Agent::class);
        $errorHandler = new \Slim\Handlers\Error($c->get('settings')['displayErrorDetails']);

        return new \Herloct\Slim\Handlers\NewRelicError($agent, $errorHandler);
    },

    \SobanVuex\NewRelic\Agent::class => function ($c) {
        $agent = new \SobanVuex\NewRelic\Agent(
            'Your Application Name',
            'YOUR_NEW_RELIC_LICENSE_KEY'
        );

        return $agent;
    },

    \Herloct\Slim\NewRelicTransactionMiddleware::class => function ($c) {
        $agent = $c->get(\SobanVuex\NewRelic\Agent::class);

        return new \Herloct\Slim\NewRelicTransactionMiddleware($agent);
    }
];

$app = new \Slim\App($config);
$app->add(\Herloct\Slim\NewRelicTransactionMiddleware::class);

$app->get('/hello/{name}', function ($request, $response, $args) {
    return $response->write("Hello " . $args['name']);
})->setName('say_hello');

$app->run();
```

Customizing transaction names
-----------------------------

[](#customizing-transaction-names)

By default the transaction name will use the route's name. If that fails, it will use the route's pattern.

If this doesn't meet your requirements, extend the `Herloct\Slim\NewRelicTransactionMiddleware` class and override the `getTransactionName()` method, then register that middleware class instead.

Running tests
-------------

[](#running-tests)

Clone the project and install its dependencies by running:

```
composer install
```

Run the following command to run the test suite:

```
vendor/bin/phpunit
```
