⁠Fastly to Insights

This is the New Relic blessed way to get your Fastly metrics into Insights, packaged as a Docker container image for ease of use!

In order to use the Fastly to Insights Docker image, you will need an active New Relic account with Insights, an active Fastly account with Read access, a New Relic Insights Insert key and a Fastly API Key.

⁠How to use this image

The Fastly to Insights image is configured by environment variables. These are mandatory:

• ACCOUNT_ID
• FASTLY_KEY
• INSERT_KEY
• SERVICES

SERVICES needs to be a string with the ids of the Fastly services you want to see data for in Insights, separated by a space. I know that's not ideal. A limitation of Fastly is that you have to query one service at a time, so I chose to create an array of service ids and loop through them to query Fastly. A limitation of Docker is that you can't pass an array via the command line, so I chose to split a string on " ". If you have a better idea, I would love to hear it - please contribute!

⁠Example

$ docker run \
  -e ACCOUNT_ID='yourNewRelicAccountId' \
  -e FASTLY_KEY='yourFastlyKey' \
  -e INSERT_KEY='yourNewRelicInsertKey' \
  -e SERVICES='list of services' \
