rohitkataria-sentryio / gql-tracing

Express gql

Repo is intended to be used as an example of one approach to instrumenting Sentry's performance feature into an express gql backend.

Node version

node -v v14.2.0

Setup

npm install

Start Server

npm start

Example POST

Navigate to localhost:3000/graphql. POSTs via the browser tool will be named IntrospectionQuery by default. You can change this behavior by naming your query - in this case we added ToolStoreClient:

Alternatively, you can include the following JSON body in postman to name your transactions:

{"operationName":"MyQueryName","query":"query MyQueryName{tools{sku name price}}"}

Performance Dashboard

Transaction categories will use the operation name you specify or default to GraphQLTransaction if none is supplied. GQL resolvers are captured in span level detail thanks to lifecycle hooks in plugin.ts.

Future work

This demo is currently does not include any Sentry build process/error triage workflows (e.g. creating releases, uploading artifacts to sentry,error simulation etc.).
