Synthetics

Synthetics is a rubygem that interfaces with New Relic Synthetics' HTTP API. It can be used to manage monitors and labels programatically. The above link is useful for finding the possible options that can be passed to each method, particularly creating and updating monitors.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

'synthetics'

And then execute:

ndle

Or install it yourself as:

m install synthetics
Usage

All interaction with the API starts by creating an API client. The client requires an admin API key, which can be generated in the Web UI. Once you have your API key, there are two ways you can pass it to the client:

Set API key directly:
nthetics = Synthetics.new('<YOUR-API-KEY>')

Set API key via environment variable:
V['SYNTHETICS_API_KEY'] = 'YOUR-API-KEY'
nthetics = Synthetics.new
Locations

List locations:

nthetics.locations.list

private=>false, :name=>"AWS_US_EAST_1", :label=>"Washington, DC, USA"},
.

Monitors

List monitors:

nthetics.monitors.list

onitors => [
{
  :id => "SOME-VALID-UUID",
  :name => "Ping Google",
  :type => "SIMPLE",
  :frequency => 1440,
  :uri => "https://google.com",
  :locations => ["AWS_US_EAST_1", "AWS_EU_WEST_1"],
  :status => "ENABLED",
  :sla_threshold => 7.0,
  :modified_at => "2016-02-26T15:10:58.515+0000",
  :created_at => "2016-02-26T15:10:58.515+0000",
  :user_id => 123,
  :api_version => "0.2.2"
}

ount => 1

Create monitor:

nthetics.monitors.create(
.   name: 'Google Monitor',
.   frequency: 15,
.   uri: 'https://google.com',
.   locations: %w(AWS_US_WEST_1),
.   type: 'simple'
. )

Monitor

These examples assume you have a valid monitor UUID, such as:

id = 'SOME-VAILD-UUID'

Show monitor:

nthetics.monitor(uuid).show

d => "SOME-VALID-UUID",
ame => "Ping Google",
ype => "SIMPLE",
requency => 15,
ri => "https://google.com",
ocations => ["AWS_US_EAST_1", "AWS_EU_WEST_1"],
tatus => "ENABLED",
la_threshold => 7.0,
odified_at => "2016-02-26T15:10:58.515+0000",
reated_at => "2016-02-26T15:10:58.515+0000",
ser_id => 123,
pi_version => "0.2.2"

Update monitor:

nthetics.monitor(uuid).update(
.   name: 'Google Monitor',
.   frequency: 30,
.   uri: 'https://google.com',
.   locations: %w(AWS_US_WEST_1),
.   type: 'simple'
. )


d => "SOME-VALID-UUID",
ame => "Ping Google",
ype => "SIMPLE",
requency => 30,
ri => "https://google.com",
ocations => ["AWS_US_EAST_1", "AWS_EU_WEST_1"],
tatus => "ENABLED",
la_threshold => 7.0,
odified_at => "2016-02-26T15:10:58.515+0000",
reated_at => "2016-02-26T15:10:58.515+0000",
ser_id => 123,
pi_version => "0.2.2"

Update monitor script:

nthetics.monitor(uuid).update_script('var test = function() {};')

Destroy monitor:

nthetics.monitor(uuid).destroy

Labels

List labels:

nthetics.labels.list

abels => [
{
  :type => 'sha',
  :value => '8ace32a'
}

ount => 1

Label

These examples assume you have a valid label, such as:

bel = 'sample:label'

Show monitors for a label:

nthetics.label(label).monitors

onitors => [
{
  :id => "SOME-VALID-UUID",
  :name => "Ping Google",
  :type => "SIMPLE",
  :frequency => 1440,
  :uri => "https://google.com",
  :locations => ["AWS_US_EAST_1", "AWS_EU_WEST_1"],
  :status => "ENABLED",
  :sla_threshold => 7.0,
  :modified_at => "2016-02-26T15:10:58.515+0000",
  :created_at => "2016-02-26T15:10:58.515+0000",
  :user_id => 123,
  :api_version => "0.2.2"
}

Attach a label to a monitor:

nthetics.label(label).attach(uuid)

Remove a label from a monitor:

nthetics.label(label).remove(uuid)
