Datadog Monitor Configuration Engine

Interfaces with the Datadog API v2 monitors and dashboards endpoints to programmatically create and manage monitors. Uses DogStatsD protocol for custom metric submission and Datadog Terraform provider for IaC.

Installation

Use the upstream install or setup path that matches your environment:

• $ npm install dd-trace
• $ yarn add dd-trace
• $ npm install dd-trace@4 # or whatever version you need
• $ yarn add dd-trace@4 # or whatever version you need

Requirements and caveats from upstream:

• dd-trace: Node.js APM Tracer Library

• dd-trace is an npm package that you can install in your Node.js application to capture APM (Application Performance Monitoring) data. In Datadog terminology this library is called a Tracer. This data is then sent off...
• Tracing Node.js Applications - most project documentation, including setup instructions
