Amazon Web Services Embedded Metrics support for Node.js
AWS embedded metrics encapsulates functions to provide metrics.
Example
This code will encapsulate the Lambda handler “addToDoItem”:
// Copyright 2019 Amazon.com, Inc. or its affiliates. All Rights Reserved.
// SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT-0
// default imports
const AWSXRay = require('aws-xray-sdk-core')
const AWS = AWSXRay.captureAWS(require('aws-sdk')) // Encapsulate AWS SDK
const { metricScope, Unit } = require("aws-embedded-metrics")
const DDB = new AWS.DynamoDB({ apiVersion: "2012-10-08" }) // use AWS as usual
const { v1: uuidv1 } = require('uuid');
// environment variables
const { TABLE_NAME, ENDPOINT_OVERRIDE, REGION } = process.env
const options = { region: REGION }
AWS.config.update({ region: REGION })
if (ENDPOINT_OVERRIDE !== "") {
options.endpoint = ENDPOINT_OVERRIDE
}
const docClient = new AWS.DynamoDB.DocumentClient(options)
// response helper
const response = (statusCode, body, additionalHeaders) => ({
statusCode,
body: JSON.stringify(body),
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin': '*', ...additionalHeaders },
})
function isValidRequest(context, event) {
return (event.body !== null)
}
function getCognitoUsername(event){
let authHeader = event.requestContext.authorizer;
if (authHeader !== null)
{
return authHeader.claims["cognito:username"];
}
return null;
}
function addRecord(event) {
let usernameField = {
"cognito-username": getCognitoUsername(event)
}
// auto generated date fields
let d = new Date()
let dISO = d.toISOString()
let auto_fields = {
"id": uuidv1(),
"creation_date": dISO,
"lastupdate_date": dISO
}
//merge the json objects
let item_body = {...usernameField, ...auto_fields, ...JSON.parse(event.body) }
console.log(item_body);
//final params to DynamoDB
const params = {
TableName: TABLE_NAME,
Item: item_body
}
return docClient.put(params)
}
// Lambda Handler
exports.addToDoItem =
metricScope(metrics =>
async (event, context, callback) => {
metrics.setNamespace('TodoApp')
metrics.putDimensions({ Service: "addTodo" })
metrics.setProperty("RequestId", context.requestId)
if (!isValidRequest(context, event)) {
metrics.putMetric("Error", 1, Unit.Count)
return response(400, { message: "Error: Invalid request" })
}
try {
let data = await addRecord(event).promise()
metrics.putMetric("Success", 1, Unit.Count)
return response(200, data)
} catch (err) {
metrics.putMetric("Error", 1, Unit.Count)
return response(400, { message: err.message })
}
}
)
The code listed above will produce the following results:
