# hapi-xray
A HapiJS plugin to log requests and subsegments through AWSXray.

## Setup

The plugin relies on the AWS credentials being set before being registered, or it will pull them from 
`~/.aws/credentials` as per the SDK default.

For more details on using X-Ray, see the [docs](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/xray-sdk-for-nodejs/latest/reference)

## Usage

Simply register as a normal Hapi plugin

```js

const AWSXRay = require('aws-xray-sdk');

await server.register({
  plugin: require('aws-xray-sdk-hapi'),
  options: {
    captureAWS: true,
    plugins: [AWSXRay.plugins.ECSPlugin]
  }
});
```

In automatic mode, you can access the X-Ray segment at any time via the AWSXRay SDK:
```js
const AWSXRay = require('aws-xray-sdk-core');

const segment = AWSXRay.getSegment();
segment.addAnnotation('hitController', 'true');
```

In manual mode, you can access the current X-Ray segment from the request object:

```js
server.route({
  method: 'GET',
  path: '/items',
  handler: async (request, h) => {
    const segment = request.segment;
    segment.addAnnotation('hitController', 'true');
    
    return {};
  }
});
```

### Options
- `segmentName` Segment name to use in place of default segment name generator
- `automaticMode` Specifies that X-Ray automatic mode is in use (default true)
- `plugins` An array of AWS plugins to use (i.e. `[AWSXRay.plugins.EC2Plugin]`)
- `captureAWS` Enables AWS X-Ray to capture AWS calls. This requires having `aws-sdk` installed as a peer dependency
- `captureHTTP` Enables AWS X-Ray to capture all http calls
- `capturePromises` Enables AWS X-Ray to capture all promises
- `logger` Bind AWS X-Ray to compatible logging interface `({ trace, debug, info })`

## Sample App
A naive hapi server with X-Ray enabled is available in the "sample" directory. 
The sample can be started from the sdk_contrib/hapi directory with: `npm run sample`

Once running, a "hello world" GET endpoint will be available at `http://localhost:3010/`

The sample will run but throw errors connecting to X-Ray if a local X-Ray daemon is not running.

For more information on running the XRay daemon locally:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/xray/latest/devguide/xray-daemon-local.html
