When it comes to developing applications in the realm of Nodejs, managing persistent data is a recurring necessity. This can take various forms, such as handling JSON, CSV, or text files on local disks, uploading files to cloud storage solutions like S3 or Google Cloud Storage, or storing data in databases like MongoDB or MySQL. Irrespective of the method chosen, the utilization of disk storage is a pivotal factor for Nodejs applications and has a substantial impact on the user experience.
Hence, it's imperative to implement robust disk usage monitoring for Nodejs applications, whether they are operating in a local environment or residing in the cloud. The significance of this lies in the fact that exceeding a certain disk usage threshold can lead to application crashes and unavailability, resulting in substantial revenue loss and a compromised user experience.
Enter Palzin Track, a potent event tracking tool seamlessly integrated with Nodejs. Palzin Track simplifies the process of tracking crucial events in Nodejs applications in real time. An exemplary use case for Palzin Track involves real-time tracking of disk usage, coupled with the ability to establish alert rules that promptly notify your team when disk usage surpasses predefined thresholds. This proactive approach ensures continuous performance awareness, enabling immediate corrective action when necessary.
Connect Palzin Track to NodeJs
Use the following code to connect Palzin Track to your NodeJs application and track disk usage: Please replace the YOUR_API_TOKEN with your API token and update the project and channel names.
Using NodeJs with Axios
var axios = require('axios');
var data = JSON.stringify({
"project": "my-project",
"channel": "status",
"event": "High Disk Usage",
"description": "The disk usage is high.",
"icon": "💾",
"notify": true
});
var config = {
method: 'post',
url: 'https://api.palzin.live/v1/log',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN'
},
data : data
};
axios(config)
.then(function (response) {
console.log(JSON.stringify(response.data));
})
.catch(function (error) {
console.log(error);
});
Using NodeJs with Native
var https = require('follow-redirects').https;
var fs = require('fs');
var options = {
'method': 'POST',
'hostname': 'palzin.live',
'path': '/api/v1/log',
'headers': {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN'
},
'maxRedirects': 20
};
var req = https.request(options, function (res) {
var chunks = \[\];
res.on("data", function (chunk) {
chunks.push(chunk);
});
res.on("end", function (chunk) {
var body = Buffer.concat(chunks);
console.log(body.toString());
});
res.on("error", function (error) {
console.error(error);
});
});
var postData = JSON.stringify({
"project": "my-project",
"channel": "status",
"event": "High Disk Usage",
"description": "The disk usage is high.",
"icon": "💾",
"notify": true
});
req.write(postData);
req.end();
Using NodeJs with Request
var request = require('request');
var options = {
'method': 'POST',
'url': 'https://api.palzin.live/v1/log',
'headers': {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN'
},
body: JSON.stringify({
"project": "my-project",
"channel": "status",
"event": "High Disk Usage",
"description": "The disk usage is high.",
"icon": "💾",
"notify": true
})
};
request(options, function (error, response) {
if (error) throw new Error(error);
console.log(response.body);
});
Using NodeJs with Unirest
var unirest = require('unirest');
var req = unirest('POST', 'https://api.palzin.live/v1/log')
.headers({
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN'
})
.send(JSON.stringify({
"project": "my-project",
"channel": "status",
"event": "High Disk Usage",
"description": "The disk usage is high.",
"icon": "💾",
"notify": true
}))
.end(function (res) {
if (res.error) throw new Error(res.error);
console.log(res.raw_body);
});
