Netuitive Rails Agent

The Netuitive Rails Agent creates default rails metrics to be sent to NetuitiveD using the netuitive_ruby_api gem. The Netuitive Rails Agent is meant to work in conjunction with the netuitive_ruby_api gem and NetuitiveD to help Netuitive monitor your Ruby applications.

For more information on the Netuitive Rails Agent, see our Ruby agent help docs, or contact Netuitive support at support@netuitive.com.

Requirements

NetuitiveD must be installed and running.

2. Copy the example.env file to .env and replace the RUBY_KEY variable with your Ruby API key from the Netuitive Integrations page
3. Run docker-compose up -d
4. Access the example Rails application by going to http://localhost:3000 (or the IP address of your Docker host)
5. View your Netuitive inventory for the new example-rails-application element (the name is configurable in the docker-compose.yml file)
