New Relic API library for Go

This is a Go library that wraps the New Relic REST API. It provides the needed types to interact with the New Relic REST API.

It's still in progress and I haven't finished the entirety of the API, yet. I plan to finish all GET (read) operations before any POST (create) operations, and then PUT (update) operations, and, finally, the DELETE operations.

The API documentation can be found from New Relic, and you'll need an API key (for some operations, an Admin API key is required).

USAGE

This library will provide a client object and any operations can be performed through it. Simply import this library and create a client to get started:

package main

import (
  "github.com/yfronto/newrelic"
)

var api_key = "..." // Required

func main() {
  // Create the client object
  client := newrelic.NewClient(api_key)

  // Get the applciation with ID 12345
  myApp, err := client.GetApplication(12345)
  if err != nil {
    // Handle error
  }

  // Work with the object
  fmt.Println(myApp.Name)

  // Some operations accept options
  opts := &newrelic.AlertEventOptions{
    // Only events with "MyProduct" as the product name
    Filter: newRelic.AlertEventFilter{
      Product: "MyProduct",
    },
  }
  // Get a list of recent events for my product
  events, err := client.GetAlertEvents(opts)
  if err != nil {
    // Handle error
  }
  // Display each event with some information
  for _, e := range events {
    fmt.Printf("%d -- %d (%s): %s\n", e.Timestamp, e.Id, e.Priority, e.Description)
  }
}

Contributing

As I work to populate all actions, bugs are bound to come up. Feel free to send me a pull request or just file an issue. Staying up to date with an API is hard work and I'm happy to accept contributors.
