Release v3.5.0

New Features

• Added support for Infinite Tracing on New Relic
  Edge.

  Infinite Tracing observes 100% of your distributed traces and provides
  visualizations for the most actionable data so you have the examples of errors
  and long-running traces so you can better diagnose and troubleshoot your systems.

  You configure your
  agent
  to send traces to a trace observer in New Relic Edge. You view your
  distributed traces through the New Relic’s UI. There is no need to install a
  collector on your network.

  Infinite Tracing is currently available on a sign-up basis. If you would like to
  participate, please contact your sales representative.

  As part of this change, the Go Agent now has an added dependency on gRPC.
  This is true whether or not you enable the Infinite Tracing feature. The gRPC dependencies include these two libraries:

  • github.com/golang/protobuf v1.3.3
  • google.golang.org/grpc v1.27.0

  You can see the changes in the go.mod file

Changes

• nrgin.Middleware
  uses
  Context.FullPath()
  for transaction names when using Gin version 1.5.0 or greater. Gin
  transactions were formerly named after the
  Context.HandlerName(),
  which uses reflection. This change improves transaction naming and reduces
  overhead. Please note that because your transaction names will change, you
  may have to update any related dashboards and alerts to match the new name.
  If you wish to continue using Context.HandlerName() for your transaction
  names, use
  nrgin.MiddlewareHandlerTxnNames
  instead.

  // Transactions previously named
  "GET main.handleGetUsers"
  // will be change to something like this match the full path
  "GET /user/:id"

  Note: As part of agent release v3.4.0, a v2.0.0 tag was added to the nrgin
  package. When using go modules however, it was impossible to install this
  latest version of nrgi
