New Relic with Dashing?

[bstephenf]

I would like to monitor our dashboard using New Relic. In their instructions, it asks you to save the newrelic.yml file to my 'config' directory. With my out-of-the-box Dashing installation, I do not have a 'config' directory.

Does anyone have experience using New Relic with Dashing that can give me some guidance?

To instrument your Dashing implementation with a New Relic Ruby agent:

1. Add: gem 'newrelic_rpm' to your $DASHING_HOME/Gemfile then run: bundle install
2. Edit $DASHING_HOME/config.ru and add: require 'newrelic_rpm'
3. Create $DASHING_HOME/config directory and add your downloaded newrelic.yml file
4. Edit the newrelic.yml file to add your app_name and any other settings
5. Restart Dashing and check for the newrelic_agent.log file. Enable Auditing to view what is being sent to New Relic.

I've just added this to the wiki @bubbajoelouis so I'll close this out. Thanks for outlining the solution! https://github.com/Shopify/dashing/wiki/Using-New-Relic-with-Dashing
