metrics wont work if not using pg module directly

[srkimir]

For example i'm using sequelize http://docs.sequelizejs.com/ which is ORM for PostgreSQL which behind the scenes use pg module. Following wont work with ORM but will work if using pg directly:

var appmetrics = require('appmetrics');
var monitoring = appmetrics.monitor();

metrics.on('postgres', (data) => {
  console.log(data)
})

Same thing happens for mongo and mongoose ODM http://mongoosejs.com/

This may not be the problem, but (as far as I remember) you need to require('appmetrics') before requiring any module you want it to monitor.

Putting require('appmetrics') before anything didn't solve the problem. I don't know if this question can be categorised as problem but probably package should work together with most popular ORMs/ODMs

@srkimir Is there a dependency between sequelize and pg? I can't find an obvious one via either the sequelize page on npmjs.com or looking at the packages installed via npm install sequelize

If there isn't, we could always look at adding support for sequelize monitoring.

@seabaylea From http://docs.sequelizejs.com/en/latest/docs/getting-started/ (check Installation part), if one is using PostgreSQL with sequelize npm install --save pg is required

Thanks - we'll take a look.

The same happens if you use pg via loopback, respectively loopback-connector-postgresql.
