Analyzer ngx-status-code-fgraph
Name
ngx-status-code-fgraph - Nginx Request Status Code Flame Graph
This analyzer profiles HTTP requests that result in specific status codes within Nginx-based applications including OpenResty, Kong, and APISIX. It captures C-level stack traces for requests matching the specified status code criteria (default: status >= 400), generating flame graphs that visualize the execution paths leading to error responses. The analyzer is essential for troubleshooting HTTP errors, identifying root causes of failed requests, and understanding the code paths that generate specific status codes.
