Command Monitoring

command_started

This event is sent just before a command is put one the wire. It will be followed by either a "command_succeeded" or "command_failed" event.

Fields:

• type: "command_started"
• databaseName: the name of the database to which the command applies
• commandName: the name of the command being executed; for legacy operations that don't use commands, the driver will convert them to appear as if they are in command form.
• command: a hash reference representing the full command to be sent
• requestId: the request identifier sent to the server
• connectionId: address and port of the destination server

command_succeeded

This event is sent just after a command reply is received, but only if the database reply document contains a non-false "ok" field. NOTE: write errors will have "ok:1" even though they have write errors; for writes, success indicates that the write attempt was valid, not that the write succeeded.

Fields:

• type: "command_succeeded"
• commandName: the name of the command being executed
• durationSecs: the elapsed time in seconds since the "command_started" event.
• reply: a hash reference representing the full database reply
• requestId: the request identifier sent to the server
• connectionId: address and port of the destination server

command_failed

This event is sent just after a command reply is received, but only if the database reply document contains a false "ok" field or if an exception occurred during send or receive operations.

Fields:

• type: "command_failed"
• commandName: the name of the command being executed
• durationSecs: the elapsed time in seconds since the "command_started" event.
• failure: a string with a error message about the failure
• eval_error: if an exception occurs, this contains the value of $@ when the exception was caught
• reply: a hash reference representing the full database reply or an empty hashref if the failure is due to an exception
• requestId: the request identifier sent to the server
• connectionId: address and port of the destination server
