This cookbook includes an LWRP for generating the newrelic.yml configuration file in a specific path, which can be used to generate multiple configurations when deploying multiple different applications



### `newrelic_yml`



#### Actions



- :generate - Generate the newrelic.yml config file (unique and default action)



#### Example usage - Java agent



1. Install the Java Agent: add the newrelic::java_agent recipe to your run list. A newrelic.yml will be generated but not linked to anything.

2. In your application cookbook, generate the newrelic.yml for this application:



```ruby

yml_path = "#{my_app_path}/newrelic.yml"

newrelic_yml yml_path do

  app_name 'my-super-duper-application'

  agent_type 'java'

end

```



3. Configure your app for newrelic using your config file and newrelic.jar:



```bash

 java -Dnewrelic.config.file=#{newrelicyml}  -javaagent:#{node['newrelic']['install_dir']}/newrelic.jar [rest of your args]

```



## Usage



1. include `recipe[newrelic]` in a run list to implicly run `recipe[newrelic::server_monitor_agent]`

--- OR ---

include the bits and pieces explicitly in a run list:

```ruby

`recipe[newrelic::repository]`

`recipe[newrelic::server_monitor_agent]`

`recipe[newrelic::dotnet_agent]`

`recipe[newrelic::java_agent]`

`recipe[newrelic::nodejs_agent]`

`recipe[newrelic::php_agent]`

`recipe[newrelic::python_agent]`

`recipe[newrelic::ruby_agent]`

`recipe[newrelic::infrastructure_agent]`

```
