The New Relic Go Agent allows you to monitor your Go applications with New Relic. It helps you track transactions, outbound requests, database calls, and other parts of your Go application's behavior and provides a running overview of garbage collection, goroutine activity, and memory use.

All pull requests will be reviewed by the New Relic product team. Any questions or issues should be directed to our support site or our community forum.

Go 1.3+ is required, due to the use of http.Client's Timeout field.

Linux, OS X, and Windows (Vista, Server 2008 and later) are supported.

The following _integration packages extend the base newrelic package to support the following frameworks and libraries. Frameworks and databases which don't have an integration package may still be instrumented using the newrelic package primitives. Specifically, more information about instrumenting your database using these primitives can be found here.

These integration packages must be imported along with the newrelic package, as shown in this nrgin example.

Follow the steps in GETTING_STARTED.md to instrument your application.

examples/server/main.go is an example that will appear as "Example App" in your New Relic applications list. To run it:

env NEW_RELIC_LICENSE_KEY=__YOUR_NEW_RELIC_LICENSE_KEY__LICENSE__ \
    go run examples/server/main.go

Some endpoints exposed are http://localhost:8000/ and http://localhost:8000/notice_error

You can find more detailed documentation in the guide and on the New Relic Documentation site.
