Configuring Metronome

Metronome has a few configurations that can help you track only what you need.

metronome.config.js has the following props that can be used to configure the metronome:

ignoredRoutes

This property controls the routes that will be ignored by the metronome. The routes will be ignored if they match any of the values in this array.

/**
 * @type {import('@metronome-sh/config').MetronomeConfig}
 */
module.exports = {
  ignoredRoutes: ["root"], // Ignores the root route
};

This option only ignores the loaders and actions invocations for a specific route. For example, if you have the following routes:

• root.tsx
• tasks.tsx
• tasks.$taskId.tsx

Having the configuration above, only the loader at root.tsx will get ignored when you make a GET request to /tasks/123.

If you want to ignore all, you may need to use ignoredPathnames instead.

ignoredPathnames

This property controls the pathnames that will be ignored. It will ignore all loaders and actions that match the pathname.

/**
 * @type {import('@metronome-sh/config').MetronomeConfig}
 */
module.exports = {
  // Ignores healthcheck as paths that matches /tasks/test...
  ignoredPathnames: ["/healthcheck", /^\/tasks\/test.*/],
};

If you for example, have the following routes:

• root.tsx
• healthcheck.tsx

Having the configuration above, you make a GET request to /healthcheck, both the loaders at root.tsx and healthcheck.tsx will be ignored.

ignoreHeadMethod

This property controls whether the HEAD method will be ignored.

/**
 * @type {import('@metronome-sh/config').MetronomeConfig}
 */
module.exports = {
  ignoreHeadMethod: true,
};
