New Relic One Observability Packs

🧪 This project is currently in an ALPHA state 🧪

New Relic One observability packs jump start your New Relic journey by providing immediate value for your specific use cases. They include:

Clear steps for instrumenting your services
Observability building blocks like dashboards and alerts

All of this is available through an open ecosystem where New Relic developers, partners, and customers contribute their best-practice solutions.

Getting Started

Contribute your own observability pack to the New Relic One catalog by following the steps below:

Fork the Github repository
Clone your own repository to your local machine
Copy the _template directory and its content to a new directory within the packs folder. Choose a name which identifies the purpose of your pack, such as rabbitmq, apm-errors, sre, or aws-s3
In your new directory, you'll find the following folders: dashboards, alerts, flex, and synthetics. Each folder contains a template that you can use to create entities for your observability pack.

For example, to add an existing dashboard to your new observability pack, copy the dashboard's JSON, and save it as a JSON file in the dashboards directory. Next, create a screenshot of your dashboard, add it to dashboards, and give it the same name as your JSON file.

Note: You can add multiple JSON files and screenshots to dashboards. Pair each screenshot with a JSON file by using the same file name. If you want multiple screenshots for a dashboard, add a number at the end of the file name. So, your dashboards folder might contain:
- rabbitmq.json
- rabbitmq.png or rabbitmq.jpeg
- rabbitmq01.png
- rabbitmq02.png
This process is similar for all other entity directories. Also, if you don't want to create entities for a given type, you can simply delete the corresponding directory.
In your pack's root directory, you'll find a config.yaml file. Set the name of your pack. Everything else is optional.
Commit your changes using the Conventional Commit syntax:
```
git add -A
git commit -m "feat([name]): Added [name]"
```
Change the [name] and add a description of the dashboard you've added.
Push your changes to Github:
```
git push
```
Create a pull request in the parent repository.
Submit and wait for review. We will review as fast as we can, but it can sometimes take a day or two.

Thanks a lot for your submission!

Testing

Importer

We've included an importer utility for testing packs on your account. You can run this using the included import.sh script.

Note: The importer spins up a docker container, so you must have docker installed and running for this to function

Modify importer-config.sh with your account number and New Relic API Key

Run import.sh from the root of this project:

# Usage:
./import.sh $PACK_NAME

# Example
> ./import.sh mysql

Support

New Relic hosts and moderates an online forum where customers can interact with New Relic employees as well as other customers to get help and share best practices. Like all official New Relic open source projects, there's a related Community topic in the New Relic Explorers Hub. You can find this project's topic/threads here:
