Advanced tools
⚠️Note: Beelines are Honeycomb's legacy instrumentation libraries. We embrace OpenTelemetry as the effective way to instrument applications. For any new observability efforts, we recommend instrumenting with OpenTelemetry.
This package makes it easy to instrument your Express/NodeJS application to send useful events to Honeycomb, a service for debugging your software in production.
Using a bundler (esbuild, webpack, etc.) or ESM with the Beeline is unsupported. You may be able to use the Beeline in those cases, but auto-instrumentations will likely not work.
An error like 'api.traceActive is not a function' error
may occur for some auto-instrumentation and can be resolved by manually requiring https
before requiring other libraries such as request-promise
.
