Node.js agent v4.11.0

New features

• Added protocol_17 feature flag.

  Flag will be removed and protocol will be hard-coded to 17 once functionality is released on New Relic backend.

• This release also includes changes to the agent to enable monitoring of Lambda functions. If you are interested in learning more or previewing New Relic Lambda monitoring please email lambda_preview@newrelic.com.

• Added waitForIdle option to API#shutdown.

  This new option will make the agent wait for all active transactions to finish before actually shutting down. This does not pre-empt creation of new transactions, so care must be taken to ensure the active transaction pool drains or the agent will never shut down.

Improvements

• Added switch statement indenting standard to eslintrc
• Introduced "warn" level 2 space rule to eslintrc
• Upgraded @newrelic/test-utilities to v2.

Bug fixes

• Changed totalTime attribute to be in decimal seconds instead of milliseconds for transaction events.

• Agent no longer produces spans on ignored transactions.

  Previously, the agent would produce distributed tracing span events regardless of the ignored status of the transaction the events originated from.

• Extended Restify instrumentation to mark possible transaction names in order to account for async response methods.

• Updated hapi@16 versioned tests to only run on Node 6 and above.

• Pinned mysql2 to <1.6.2 in versioned tests.
