honeycomb-tcpagent

NOTE The honeycomb-tcpagent has been deprecated. We recommend instrumenting database calls from within your application using one of our SDKs or integrations.

honeycomb-tcpagent captures database network traffic and forwards it to Honeycomb, enabling query-level visibility with low overhead. Currently, MongoDB is supported and MySQL is under development. Get in touch if you'd like support for something else!

See the documentation for instructions on using honeycomb-tcpagent to send data to Honeycomb.

Development instructions

sudo apt-get install -y libpcap0.8-dev
go get github.com/honeycombio/honeycomb-tcpagent
sudo setcap cap_net_raw=eip $GOPATH/bin/honeycomb-tcpagent

Then run honeycomb-tcpagent to start capturing traffic.

See docs/internal.md for some implementation notes.
