Microsoft Application Insights JavaScript SDK - Angular Plugin

Angular Plugin for the Application Insights Javascript SDK, enables the following:

Note: Angular plugin is NOT es3 compatible

• Tracking of router changes
• Tracking uncaught exceptions

Angular Plugin for the Application Insights Javascript SDK

Getting Started

Install npm package:

npm install @microsoft/applicationinsights-angularplugin-js

Basic Usage

Set up an instance of Application Insights in the entry component in your app:

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { ApplicationInsights } from '@microsoft/applicationinsights-web';
import { AngularPlugin } from '@microsoft/applicationinsights-angularplugin-js';
import { Router } from '@angular/router';

//-------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Special Note: If you also want to use the ErrorService you MUST include
// either the '@microsoft/applicationinsights-web' or include the
// `@microsoft/applicationinsights-analytics-js' extension, if you don't
// then unhandled errors caught by the error service will not be sent
//-------------------------------------------------------------------------

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.css']
})
export class AppComponent {
    constructor(
        private router: Router
    ){
        var angularPlugin = new AngularPlugin();
        const appInsights = new ApplicationInsights({ config: {
        instrumentationKey: 'YOUR_INSTRUMENTATION_KEY_GOES_HERE',
        extensions: [angularPlugin],
        extensionConfig: {
            [angularPlugin.identifier]: { router: this.router }
        }
        } });
        appInsights.loadAppInsights();
    }
}

To track uncaught exceptions, setup ApplicationinsightsAngularpluginErrorService in app.module.ts:

Note: When using the ErrorService there is an implicit dependency on the @microsoft/applicationinsights-analytics-js extension which is also include in the that your MUST include the @microsoft/applicationinsights-web Sku, so for uncaught exceptions to be tracked your project MUST be initialized to include the analytics package otherwise unhandled errors caught by the error service will not be sent

import { ApplicationinsightsAngularpluginErrorService } from '@microsoft/applicationinsights-angularplugin-js';

//-------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Special Note: The Errorservice has an implicit dependency on the
// `@microsoft/applicationinsights-analytics-js' extension, which is included
// with the '@microsoft/applicationinsights-web' module, if the analytics 
// extension is not included during initialization of the SDK this Error Service
// will not be able to send any caught unhandled errors.
//-------------------------------------------------------------------------

@NgModule({
  ...
  providers: [
    {
      provide: ErrorHandler,
      useClass: ApplicationinsightsAngularpluginErrorService
    }
  ]
  ...
})
export class AppModule { }

To chain more custom error handlers, create custom error handlers that implement IErrorService:

import { IErrorService } from '@microsoft/applicationinsights-angularplugin-js';

export class CustomErrorHandler implements IErrorService {
    handleError(error: any) {
        ...
    }
}

And pass errorServices array through extensionConfig:

extensionConfig: {
        [angularPlugin.identifier]: {
          router: this.router,
          errorServices: [new CustomErrorHandler()]
        }
      }
